It’s exciting to share the news of our new funding round. It let us bring onboard some amazing investors and funds for further growth, along with setting the company valuation at $8.5B — a pretty big number. When you look at this valuation, and consider these smart investors expect it to grow substantially, you may wonder — how can this market be big enough to support these numbers? I would say the real question is — how can it not be?

Empathy — that ability to understand what others are feeling — might be the secret ingredient when it comes to successfully shifting security into the developer world. Snyk co-founder and president Guy Podjarny hosts The Secure Developer podcast, and in interview after interview, guests have repeatedly spoken about how empathy, understanding, and a bias toward action are the biggest components of a successful developer-first security culture.
As organizations continue to adopt DevSecOps practices to deliver secure software, security ownership is an ever-critical consideration. Snyk recently held a roundtable with Twilio to discuss security ownership in 2021. In this post, we’ll recap the discussion between Guy Podjarny, President & Co-Founder of Snyk, and Yashvier Kosaraju, Senior Manager of Product Security at Twilio.
For many developers, a good IDE is like a Swiss Army knife. It is a tool that integrates all sorts of features you need as a developer in a single program. Therefore many developers primarily work from their favorite IDE instead of opening multiple single-purpose tools.
Yesterday, the Biden Administration called upon leaders from Amazon, Apple, Google, IBM and Microsoft as well as other private and non-profit organizations to discuss crucial measures for improving the overall cybersecurity posture of the United States. (This follows an Executive Order , which we wrote about in May, outlining a 100-day initiative to improve the security of the modern software supply chain ).
Across the tech startup space, growth is on fire, and a key differentiator of success will be your ability to scale your talent at the pace needed. Based on having gone through this phase at various companies over the past decade, I’ve been pulled into helping advise founders and heads of people at several earlier-stage startups. So I made it simpler, and drafted a Hypergrowth Playbook , with my learnings. We are happy to share this openly, to help the community at large.
So you’re running microservices in containers? Congratulations! This is an important step towards meeting those business needs around delivering applications to the hands of your customers as soon as possible. But how can we mitigate any potential risks associated with faster software deployment? Simple, with Snyk.
As developers, we spend a lot of time in our IDEs writing new code, refactoring code, adding tests, fixing bugs and more. And in recent years, IDEs have become powerful tools, helping us developers with anything from interacting with HTTP requests to generally boosting our productivity. So you have to ask — what if we could also prevent security issues in our code before we ship it?
Recently, Snyk added Social Trends to its vulnerability data . This new indicator shows you what vulnerabilities are trending so you can better prioritize remediation. Our research team found out that there is a strong correlation between socially trending vulnerabilities and the existence of exploits that can actually harm your application.
