About Snyk

Snyk sells the AI Security Platform, which secures the code AI writes, the agents it runs, and the applications it builds. Snyk describes an independent security layer that continuously validates AI-generated code, governs development agents, and secures AI-native applications. Snyk was co-founded in 2015. The Snyk AI Security Platform integrates with IDEs, CI/CD pipelines, and AI coding assistants, including Claude Code, Cursor, and Codex.[1]

Snyk says security teams have no inventory of the models, workflows, or agents running in production. Snyk states that AI agents write code, invoke tools, and commit changes with no security checkpoint between inception and production. Snyk's Agentic AppSec uses security agents to find, fix, and verify vulnerabilities continuously. Evo ADS helps teams govern AI coding agents. AI Security Posture Management (AI-SPM) gives visibility, governance, and security oversight of the AI assets in code. AI-SPM maps assets, scores their risk, and helps enforce governance. AI-SPM scans the repositories that are imported after Evo is enabled.[1][18]

Snyk Code provides SAST scanning, and Snyk Agent Fix provides automatic remediation. Snyk's vulnerability scanner is compatible with most popular languages, IDEs, and CI/CD tools. Snyk automatically scans every PR and repo for a status report to assess, prioritize, and fix existing issues. Snyk integrates vulnerability scans, including PR checks, into the build process. Snyk maintains a database of over 35,000 real-world vulnerabilities and fixes written by Snyk security experts.[14]

Snyk Agent Fix is an AI-driven tool that automatically fixes code vulnerabilities. Snyk Agent Fix uses an agentic architecture for AI-powered code fixes.

Snyk Studio is used to prevent new AI-generated vulnerabilities and clear existing security debt. Snyk offers delta findings, a view focused on vulnerabilities introduced only in new code.[14][19]

DeepCode AI powers the Snyk AI Security Platform and uses frontier AI models fine-tuned with security-specific context. Snyk's DeepCode AI code analyzer was designed to find, autofix, and prioritize vulnerabilities, and manage tech debt. Snyk says its specialized model is trained on data from millions of permissively licensed open source projects with verified code fixes, never customer data. DeepCode AI supports Snyk's context-aware risk scoring, which assesses the popularity of the affected package and the reachability of vulnerable code while monitoring the maturity of available exploits. DeepCode AI logic lets users write their own queries to find matches in their code.[20]

Snyk Container is offered as container and Kubernetes security solutions that help developers and DevOps find, prioritize, and fix vulnerabilities throughout the SDLC. Snyk Container lets developers know the risks in each image and provides one-click upgrades and alternative image recommendations. Snyk Container has priority scoring based on risk signals such as exploit maturity and insecure workload configs. Snyk Container monitors images for newly discovered vulnerabilities and base image updates and sends alerts via Slack, Jira, email, or custom integration.

Snyk Container is part of the Snyk software supply chain security solution, and Snyk Container is available to bundle with Snyk Open Source. Snyk enables software transparency by providing both export and evaluation of software bills of materials (SBOMs).[13]

The Snyk MCP server is integrated into the Snyk CLI and lets AI agents use Snyk's scanning capabilities. Snyk helps secure MCP servers through the open source MCP-Scan project. MCP-Scan performs various types of analysis to find classifications of vulnerabilities that impact MCP servers, such as tool poisoning and toxic flow analysis. Snyk delivers SaaS services and runs planned maintenance on its cloud infrastructure. Snyk's planned maintenance happens every 3 months on the second Saturday of the month.[1][13][14][15][16][21][22]
