Announcing Snyk’s developer-first prioritization capabilities

Snyk is announcing its developer-first prioritization capabilities, which help development and security teams prioritize fixes for security vulnerabilities in their open source dependencies and containers more effectively. These capabilities aim to address the challenge of effective prioritization by providing a comprehensive suite of tools, including instant prioritization, deep application context, and governance at scale. The new Priority Score is an advanced scoring system that calculates a score ranging from 1-1000 for security vulnerabilities based on factors such as CVSS score, exploit maturity, and reachability. Snyk's Exploit Maturity tool differentiates between vulnerability maturity levels, while Reachable Vulnerabilities provides deeper application-level context to help prioritize issues. Additionally, Snyk is introducing Kubernetes-specific prioritization and Security Policies to automate prioritization across the organization.
