Snyk: cybersecurity software

Snyk was the first to really do DevSecOps - fast, actionable, developer focused CI/CD security scanning. They also were early to consolidate scanners into a single place - IaC, Code, SCA, and Container. There are many platforms with small improvements over them - better reachability, workflows, etc. - but they remain a strong player in the space for having scaled so meaningfully across enterprises.

Use Snyk as a stack candidate, not as diligence evidence. The oneNorma score for Snyk is 5.8/10 (percentile 75). If the real gap is in ASPM, SCA, Container Vulnerability, AI Security, SAST, and DAST, a dashboard does not replace a pentest or a control mapped to Law 21.663 or ISO 27001. Compare this profile with what snyk.io publishes. Contrast it with pentesting and Security Cloud & Compliance.
