Overview
Snyk is the leading developer security platform, designed to find and fix security vulnerabilities at every stage of the development lifecycle. It integrates directly into IDEs, CI/CD pipelines, and code repositories to surface security issues as developers write code — not after the fact in a security audit.
Key Features
- Snyk Code: AI-powered static analysis (SAST) for finding vulnerabilities in your own code
- Snyk Open Source: dependency vulnerability scanning with automated fix PRs
- Snyk Container: container image and Kubernetes security scanning
- Snyk IaC: infrastructure-as-code scanning for Terraform, CloudFormation, and Kubernetes manifests
- IDE plugins for VS Code, JetBrains, Eclipse, and Visual Studio
- Automated fix pull requests with one-click remediation
Pricing: Free for individuals up to 3 contributors; Team at $25/month per contributor; Enterprise with SSO, reporting, and audit logs.
