This post is applicable to Business plan and Enterprise plan customers. Adopting a new platform can seem intimidating, but with Snyk it doesn’t have to be. We have three tips to help you roll out Snyk, and have a seamless and successful first 30 days across your business or enterprise. Before you start inviting team members and importing projects, you’ll want to consider your account strategy, set up single sign-on (SSO), and configure your first organization.

Snyk’s Senior Product Marketing Manager, Frank Fischer, recently hosted a webinar about the value in using a developer security platform to secure code, dependencies, containers, and infrastructure as code (IaC). During this talk, Fischer discussed the shift in software security that has occurred over the past decade, the need for developers to take part in the security process, and the value of Snyk in securing the entire development lifecycle.

Snyk recently partnered with the Linux Foundation to produce a report focusing on the state of security in the open source software (OSS) space. The report was based on 550+ survey responses and 15 interviews with OSS maintenance and cybersecurity experts. Following the report’s publication, experts from Snyk held a webinar with the Linux Foundation to discuss some of the key insights.

Snyk’s Chief Architect, Josh Stella, recently hosted a webinar about cloud security. Stella was the co-founder and CEO of Fugue, a cloud security and compliance company that was acquired by Snyk. With the capabilities of Fugue, Snyk will bring its developer-first security platform into the cloud security space. During this talk, Stella discussed the missing story in every cloud breach: the tale of how, when, and where attackers operate in the cloud.

C++ has become a pivotal part of the modern day tech industry. It has been used for multiple purposes, such as desktop applications, server applications, gaming, virtual reality, internet of things firmware, and even as the foundation for many modern day programming languages. Since the initial C++ release in 1985, as an extension to the C programming language, it was designed with an orientation towards system programming and embedded resource development.

Using open source libraries securely is an ongoing priority at large organizations. One big challenge is integrating security tools into the developer workflow — and setting up a system that prioritizes vulnerability fixes — without overwhelming developers. But what does a successful approach look like?

Have you ever looked at the curriculum offered in a Computer Science program? Across many different universities, there are some commonalities among the courses students take. Generally, there’s an introductory course in the first semester that introduces students to the world of computer science. Then over the course of subsequent semesters, students take courses about programming (including an introduction to OOP), databases, data structures, etc.

Before we dive into the details of this vulnerability, we want to make it clear that there’s no need for panic. Many systems permit the use of various types of code in configuration files, and there are legitimate use cases to include string and variable interpolation in the configuration of applications and systems. This is not Log4Shell all over again. This is simple configuration manipulation.
