Pillai, Preeta (2025) Python-driven security automation pipeline for enterprise financial reporting. World Journal of Advanced Engineering Technology and Sciences, 15 (1). pp. 2233-2239. ISSN 2582-8266

This article examines the implementation of Python-driven security automation within enterprise financial reporting systems. The article highlights critical vulnerabilities in financial applications and demonstrates how Python-based automation frameworks address these challenges through modular architectures, technology integration, and advanced sanitization techniques. The article involving 70,000+ financial reports illustrate significant improvements in vulnerability detection, remediation time, and compliance achievement through CI/CD pipeline integration, task orchestration with Airflow, and comprehensive monitoring systems. The article reveals that automated security controls substantially reduce error rates, improve operational efficiency, and enhance data integrity while decreasing resource requirements. The article concludes by exploring future trends in security automation, including the growing adoption of machine learning and advanced analytics to further improve threat detection capabilities, with broad implications for the financial services industry's approach to cybersecurity.
