Snyk

Snyk is a developer security platform. It finds and fixes vulnerabilities in your code (SAST), open source dependencies (SCA), container images, and infrastructure as code (IaC).

When to Use

  • Developer-First Security Scanning: Detecting vulnerabilities in open-source dependencies (Snyk Open Source) directly in IDEs and CI/CD.
  • Static Application Security Testing (SAST): Scanning source code for security flaws and code quality issues (Snyk Code).
  • Container Image Vulnerability Scanning: Inspecting Docker and OCI container images for OS package CVEs and base image upgrade advice.
  • Infrastructure as Code (IaC) Scanning: Identifying misconfigurations in Terraform, Kubernetes, Helm, and CloudFormation files.
