During the long-awaited Snyk Launch 2024, we announced the exciting general availability of Snyk Code's auto-fixing feature, DeepCode AI Fix, powered by our AI machine, DeepCode AI! To celebrate this milestone, let’s explore how Snyk’s AI-powered features differentiate our approach to application security. AI is on everyone's minds, along with its countless applications that offer a wide variety of solutions (and issues).

The automotive industry is at a unique inflection point in its history with the advent of the Software Defined Vehicle (SDV). During the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) World Congress held in Detroit April 16th - 18th, 2024, it was explicitly stated there is more than a $500 billion market that will see investment in R&D and technological advancements for the automotive industry.

As apps become more complex and development speeds up with DevOps, cloud-native tech, and AI, having a comprehensive approach to managing application risk is more important than ever. Traditional methods just aren’t cutting it anymore. Security teams are overwhelmed by vulnerabilities, and developers aren’t getting the guidance they need on what to focus on first. This gap between security and development is leaving apps more vulnerable.

DevOps has dominated the 21st-century software industry as a powerful methodology for streamlining processes and improving collaboration between development and operations teams. However, as organizations shift towards this model, a critical aspect is often overlooked: security. This led to the advent of DevSecOps, an approach that aims to bridge the gap by integrating security practices into DevOps workflows.

Your developer team is growing rapidly, and modern applications are becoming increasingly complex. With the rise of GenAI, both developer productivity and security risks are on the rise; How can your application security stay ahead? Snyk Analytics is our most powerful solution yet for AppSec leaders seeking to gain the visibility and insights needed to proactively address security threats.

Context switching can be security’s worst enemy. Today’s security practices require developer buy-in, and when security teams require developers to deviate from their established workflows to address issues, adoption becomes far less likely. To truly empower developers to find and fix vulnerabilities within their code, security teams must shift security even further left. It’s not enough to simply provide user-friendly tools and training around them.

Important note: there may be other CVEs issued related to these vulnerabilities and others detected by Simone, the original researcher. We will update this blog with new details as needed.

Generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) has already become the defining technology of the 2020s, with users embracing it to do everything from designing travel itineraries to creating music. Today’s software developers are leveraging GenAI en masse to write code, reducing their workload and helping reclaim their valuable time. However, it’s important developers account for potential security risks that can be introduced through GenAI coding tools.

Snyk Code is a powerful tool designed to help developers identify and automatically fix vulnerabilities in their source code. It eliminates flow interruptions and repeated work by detecting and resolving security issues in real time with over 80% autofixing accuracy. It integrates seamlessly with your development workflow, providing real-time feedback on security issues directly within your IDE, CLI, or SCM.
