Introducing the Snyk App for Compass: A complete view of software component risk

The developer role is expanding beyond writing and testing code to encompass operations and security functions. To address this, platform engineering has emerged as a concept to make software more secure by adding guardrails such as pre-vetted software components. Atlassian's Compass platform aims to enhance the development experience with a software component catalog, health scorecards, and an extensibility engine. The Snyk App for Compass integrates vulnerability data from Snyk Open Source, Code, Container, and Infrastructure as Code to provide a comprehensive view of risk, simplifying application security testing and remediation processes.
