Summary

Snyk’s Big Fix is a month-long security fix-a-thon encouraging developers and security professionals of all experience levels to identify and remediate vulnerabilities in open- and closed-source software. Building on its 2022 event, where participants found more than 450,000 vulnerabilities and fixed over 125,000, the initiative aims to collectively fix more than 200,000 issues this year. Participants register through Snyk, add projects for tracking, and can compete on an anonymized leaderboard, while anyone who fixes at least one vulnerability receives a limited-edition T-shirt and top performers can win additional prizes. The event also offers support through a Discord community of more than 4,000 members, a 24-hour livestream on February 28 featuring security sessions and expert troubleshooting, and partnerships with organizations including Atlassian, AWS, Slack, and The Linux Foundation. Throughout February and March, Snyk plans to provide security articles, educational livestreams, and social-media giveaways to promote participation and software security awareness.
