Story
Energy work at World Kinect spans more than one site, even when headquarters sits in the United States. Developer security was splitting across regional habits. Developers and AppSec asked for a shared way to run secure delivery without freezing local judgment.
GitLab (GitLab Duo) is what they standardized on. GitLab is a DevSecOps platform that combines source control, CI/CD, security scanning, and planning in one application. World Kinect uses it as the system of record for developer security, with developers and AppSec as the primary operators and other groups coming in through the same queue.
Leaders get a picture they can actually walk. Teams get fewer mystery statuses. The story is about operating change, not an unpublished percentage.
