Snyk announced its SnykLaunch April 2023, a series of strategic enhancements to the company’s Developer Security Platform.

These latest innovations enable global enterprises to create a secure software supply chain, while advancing greater DevSecOps collaboration and enhancing developer productivity.

Now available as part of the SnykLaunch April 2023 line up:

- Developer-First Application Security for C/C++: Snyk now brings the developer-led security experience to the realm of securing C/C++ apps, applying its semantic, AI-based analysis engine to this language now again increasing in popularity;

- More Effectively Securing the Cloud by Driving Contextual Fixes in Infrastructure as Code (IaC) Pipelines: Snyk is taking the complexity out of connecting cloud security issues back to their IaC source, significantly simplifying fixes for platform teams;

- Layering Automated Security in Container Supply Chain: Snyk Container now provides vulnerability fix guidance to match the complex, layered container build chains used by mature teams;

- Increased DevSecOps Collaboration: new integrations with ServiceNow as well as Atlassian, AWS and Dynatrace bring greater software supply chain security visibility to enterprise security and operations teams.

“In every 2023 discussion I’ve had with security leaders, supply chain security is voiced as the persistent weak link in their enterprise security strategy,” said Peter McKay, CEO, Snyk. “The maturity of Snyk’s platform allows developer, operations and security teams to better understand and meaningfully reduce risk, while also achieving significant developer productivity gains and overall security spend consolidation.”

“These latest enhancements are indicative of Snyk’s commitment to an unified security approach that is best suited to accelerate secure innovation,” said Manoj Nair, Chief Product Officer, Snyk. “We’re proud to have purposefully combined a series of otherwise siloed solutions into one platform that best equips and empowers global developers to successfully secure everything they build, while also giving security teams the visibility they need to drive a culture focused on effective remediation.”
