The software development lifecycle (SDLC) at Spotify was redesigned to prioritize security, with Snyk being a key component of this effort. Spotify's SDLC now includes security assessment scans to identify vulnerabilities before they're released, and the company can use Snyk throughout all stages of the SDLC, including design, development, deployment, maintenance, and product delivery. To address the complexities of the software supply chain, Spotify uses Snyk's vulnerability management platform to track the lifecycle of relevant vulnerabilities and provides internal vulnerability policies to ensure that asset owners and operations teams can prioritize and remediate vulnerabilities. With Snyk's automation, Spotify can keep its software up-to-date, providing a base layer of protection against common vulnerabilities. The company prioritizes comprehensiveness and flexibility in its security testing efforts, choosing Snyk for its ability to support multiple languages and package managers and integrate into its existing CI/CD pipeline. By making security scanning simple and seamless, Snyk has helped Spotify build a stronger security program that enables developers to focus on their priorities while putting security into practice.
