Snyk Named a Leader in The Forrester Wave™: Agentic Development Security Tools, Q4 2026

Snyk announced that it was named a Leader in Forrester’s 2026 evaluation of agentic development security tools, receiving the highest strategy score and top marks for capabilities including AI dynamic testing, coding guardrails, autonomous remediation, and developer experience. The company argues that AI coding agents have accelerated development and expanded security risks by independently using packages, MCP servers, skills, tools, and sensitive data, while attackers increasingly operate at automated speed and can combine lower-severity vulnerabilities into serious exploit paths. Snyk contends that conventional post-development scanning and backlog-based remediation are insufficient, particularly as organizations deploy AI applications faster than they can inventory and govern their models, agents, and related components. Its Evo by Snyk platform is presented as a suite addressing code security, governance of AI coding agents, AI application risk management, and continuous offensive testing, with independent validation intended to confirm exploitable risks. The company says its approach combines AI reasoning with deterministic security engines to help enterprises embed security controls into agent workflows while maintaining oversight of AI-generated software.
