Snyk AppRisk provides AppSec teams with the comprehensive application security posture management (ASPM) workbench they need to govern and scale their security programs as well as minimize risk arising from applications.

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.
