Announcing a Dedicated Snyk API & Web Infrastructure Instance for Asia-Pacific

Snyk has launched a dedicated API and web infrastructure instance in the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region to meet the local data residency and compliance needs of its growing customer base. This initiative not only ensures that scan data remains within the region, simplifying adherence to data privacy laws and corporate governance policies, but also enhances performance by reducing latency for APAC customers. The infrastructure supports Snyk's developer-first DAST capabilities, which are crucial for addressing the challenges introduced by AI-driven applications, especially regarding API security. Snyk's solution offers a "Shift Left" approach, allowing for the accurate and efficient identification and remediation of runtime vulnerabilities, while integrating seamlessly into every step of the software development lifecycle. The near-zero false positive rate of their DAST engine, combined with advanced detection for complex, API-rich applications, positions Snyk as a leader in modern application security. As the company continues to innovate, particularly in AI-driven security measures like BOLA detection and SAST and DAST correlation, the new APAC infrastructure further underscores Snyk's dedication to supporting secure, scalable software development in the region.
