SnykLaunch - October 2024

Extending AI for developer-first AppSec

Snyk advances risk-based application security driven by an AI-powered, developer-focused platform rooted in nearly a decade of AppSec and DevSecOps practice evolution.

Reduced risk, faster development

Snyk's approach to security anchors strategy and design in a risk-based framework that aligns with DevOps principles. This approach enables program leaders to make secure practices the default for software engineers, reducing security toil while minimizing change failure rates.

Maturing DevSecOps

Modern software development demands a mature DevSecOps practice. Wherever you are in your journey, Snyk provides the security tools, intelligence, and expertise to help you evolve.

AI and AppSec

Not all AI tools are suited to security. To keep your applications safe, you need an AI capabilities  like Snyk's DeepCode AI that can find, fix, and prioritize human-written and AI-generated vulns.

Holistic risk management

Accurately assessing risk requires contextualizing signals from multiple sources. Snyk’s Risk Score considers both objective and contextual data to calculate a holistic view of risk.

An empowering developer experience

Developers can’t fix problems they aren’t aware of. Snyk’s developer PR workflow enhancements provide issue details and streamlined actions in the PR experience to help developers move quickly while ensuring the security of their applications.

Issue summaries in pull requests

This new capability saves developers time and reduces context switching by providing them with the necessary information and actionability directly in the pull request comment to address security problems, with a clear summary of issue results from Snyk.

Customizable PR Templates

You can now customize PR titles, descriptions, and commit messages to align with your organization’s specific standards, practices, and communication preferences for Snyk-generated PRs.

Extensive visibility with Snyk Analytics

Data is critical to maturing security programs. Snyk gives security leaders and practitioners the data analysis tools and framework to effectively measure the health of their application security program across their entire organization.

Issue analytics

Issue Analytics focuses teams on a view of the most important metrics available for critical and high-severity issues in a 90-day (or custom-defined) lookback period. Quickly understand your overall risk exposure and progress in resolving or preventing that risk.

Developer analytics

The Developer IDE and CLI Usage Report shows the adoption of Snyk's testing in local development, through the IDE plugins, and in the CLI. Security teams can use this report to model where shift-left behavior is strong and to identify and reinforce where adoption is lacking.

Application analytics

Application Analytics, reveals insights into issues, coverage, and asset-related trends. These context-driven reports enable teams to assess program success, refine strategies, and provide executive stakeholders with a clearer understanding of overall risk posture and ROI.

Snyk Analytics Integration to Snowflake

This integration allows customers to seamlessly access Snyk’s industry-leading, analysis-ready data alongside other security data sources in their own Snowflake security data environment, allowing AppSec leaders to combine holistic application risk visibility with more context around their entire risk landscape.

Improve dev productivity with DeepCode AI

AI accelerates coding — and vulnerability production. Thankfully, Snyk’s DeepCode AI Fix provides AI-generated code fixes from Snyk Code’s leading SAST scans, empowering developers to address multiple vulnerabilities in seconds, driving down mean time to remediate (MTTR) by 84% or more.

DeepCode AI Fix in the IDE

Entering General Availability is Snyk Code’s DeepCode AI Fix capability empowering developers to remediate insecure code without breaking their rhythm. Seamlessly fix source code vulnerabilities detected by Snyk Code in seconds. DeepCode AI fix provides a Snyk trusted, AI-generated fix recommendation directly in the IDE which can be accepted and applied with the click of a mouse.

AI-powered reachability

Snyk's DeepCode AI-powered reachability analysis calculates which functions in libraries are vulnerable and analyzes the call tree from your codebase to pinpoint the small percentage of issues that are actually called by your application—whether directly or transitively. Reachability helps strip out the noise and is just one of many risk factors in Snyk’s Risk Score, which enables teams to prioritize the most impactful work.

Pinpoint risk in a sea of vulns

Holistic risk management is key to our vision of secure, high-performance app development. Instead of chasing individual vulnerabilities, Snyk helps organizations focus on managing the real risks that could impact their business.

Snyk Risk Score

Using reachability as a risk factor to prioritize vulnerabilities makes a ton of sense, but it isn’t a silver bullet. Reachability is just one of many risk factors that are useful for prioritizing remediation efforts. A broad view of static and contextual security signals come together to assess the likelihood and impact of an exploited vulnerability to form the Risk Score: a holistic view of application risk.

Integrations across the DecSecOps Ecosystem

Snyk AppRisk’s partner and integration ecosystem now includes key platforms across Source Code Management (SCM) systems like GitHub, Bitbucket, Azure DevOps, and GitLab; Internal Developer Platforms (IDPs) and Service Catalogs such as Backstage, ServiceNow CMDB, Atlassian Compass, Harness, and OpsLevel; Observability Tools including Dynatrace and Datadog; and Cloud and Runtime Security solutions like Sysdig, Orca, SentinelOne, and Crowdstrike. 

Together, these integrations allow Snyk AppRisk to provide a full-spectrum view of application architecture, development processes, business importance, and runtime state, enabling teams to manage security risks more effectively than ever before

Snyk AppRisk Essentials for all

To manage application risk effectively, you need a clear picture of all the software being built in your organization and a way to keep track of new applications. Snyk discovers and builds a complete application asset inventory, from development to deployment. Assets are enriched with details like development context, business criticality, and security coverage. Policy controls allow you to automate coverage gap response, asset classification, and more. These capabilities are now available for all Enterprise tier customers.
