Summary

Snyk has been at the forefront of developer-first application security, but realized that cloud security still follows the traditional "deploy, detect, and respond" model. They aim to break this paradigm by empowering developers to proactively secure the cloud through code (IaC) from the start. In 2022, Snyk introduced various capabilities such as IaC security checks in IDEs, Terraform Cloud and Enterprise integration, unified policy engine for all IaC and cloud workflows, and drift detection capabilities. These features enable developers to secure infrastructure earlier in the SDLC, provide context to cloud issues, and unify security across the SDLC from code to cloud. Snyk plans to continue enhancing their capabilities in 2023, including tying back cloud issues to code assets, enforcing security policies across the SDLC, and strengthening ruleset and engine's filtering capabilities for infrastructure as code.
