We are thrilled to announce that Snyk has been acknowledged as a key player in the evolving landscape of application security. The recent release of Snowflake's Next Generation of Cybersecurity Applications report has designated Snyk as an Emerging Segment Leader in Application Security, highlighting our commitment to innovation and excellence in the field.
As software becomes increasingly integral to our professional and personal lives, the need to protect information and systems from malicious attacks grows proportionately. One of the critical threats that Python developers must grapple with is the risk of code injection, a sophisticated and often devastating form of cyberattack.
Securing C/C++ applications has been a massive challenge historically. Until today, many organizations using C/C++ have had to rely on a niche, single-language tool that, while decent at finding vulnerabilities, requires code to be compiled before scanning, slows down developers with clunky integrations, and provides vulnerability alerts that do not help developers to remediate the issue.
User credentials are the information required to authenticate a user's identity and grant them access to a system or application. Typically, this includes a username or email address and a password. While a username can be stored as plaintext in a database, sensitive information like email addresses or passwords should not. If a malicious actor gains access to your database where you store this information, you don't want to hand over this information to them easily.
Effective security programs promote collaboration between developers and security teams. Many organizations aim for a seamless developer experience that allows security teams to build guardrails directly into dev workflows, breaking down silos, and promoting collaboration between these departments.
Snyk, the leader in developer security, is excited to share that we’ve been named Customers’ Choice in the 2023 Gartner Peer Insights Voice of the Customer for Application Security Testing for a second consecutive year. Gartner defines the Application Security Testing category as products and services designed to analyze and test applications for security vulnerabilities. This distinction is based on meeting or exceeding user interest, adoption, and overall experience.
Snyk provides a comprehensive approach to developer security by securing critical components of the software supply chain, application security posture management (ASPM), AI-generated code, and more. We recognize the increasing risk of exposed secrets in the cloud, so we’ve tapped Nightfall AI to provide a critical feature for developer security: advanced secrets scanning.
In the world of software development, managing dependencies is a core part of creating strong and secure applications. Spring Boot, a favorite among Java developers, makes building applications easier, but there's more to it than meets the eye. Keeping your dependencies in check is crucial to ensure that your Spring Boot projects run smoothly and remain resilient in the face of ever-evolving threats.
Your developer teams plan to adopt a generative AI coding tool, but you — a security leader — have compliance and security concerns. Most important of which being, what if you can’t keep pace with your developers and something significant slips through the net? Luckily, you can stay secure while developing at the speed of AI with Snyk, the security companion for Amazon CodeWhisperer.
AWS offers the infrastructure, innovation, services, and reliability to run your mission-critical applications, which is why millions of customers partner with AWS to build, run, and scale applications in the cloud. But how can customers proactively ensure the security of these critical applications?
