We have more than a few reasons to be thrilled with the results of the 2021 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Application Security Testing. In our debut on the report, Snyk has been recognized as a Visionary. Additionally, we are placed furthest in the Visionaries quadrant for both Completeness of Vision and Ability to Execute, and second-furthest for Completeness of Vision in the overall Magic Quadrant.

Veracode has been named a Leader in the 2021 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Application Security Testing (AST) for the eighth consecutive year. Gartner evaluates vendors based on their completeness of vision and ability to execute in the application security testing (AST) market. This recognition comes just months after we were named Gartner Peer Insights Customers’ Choice for AST, proving, in our opinion, the strength of our AST offerings according to both experts and users.

We are honored to share that Snyk has been named to the ninth annual CNBC Disruptor 50 List, coming in at #15!

In 2020, over 30 new major features were released across the Snyk platform — in Snyk Open Source, Snyk Container, Snyk Infrastructure as Code, and Snyk Code.

Our ultimate goal is to help development and security teams be successful in mitigating risk.

In November 2019, just after Styra raised $14 million in our Series A funding round, I wrote that the market’s move away from monolithic apps and adoption of containerized cloud-native application architectures was going to provide “a substantial market opportunity for policy and authorization to evolve.” A lot has happened since I wrote that, and I’m happy to report that while our Series A round showed the market opportunity, our latest round of funding proves the validity of t

Last summer, we announced our plan to expand our partnership with Trend Micro to provide security operations teams visibility and tracking of vulnerabilities and license risks in open source components.
