If you know about a vulnerability, you can be certain that adversaries also know about it – and are working to exploit it. It sounds like a no-brainer; but using components with known vulnerabilities still makes #6 in the current OWASP list of the ten most critical web application security risks.

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. The long-standing partnership already includes container image security scanning that leverages Snyk’s proprietary vulnerability database.

As per UK DCMS’s data breaches survey, about 32% of businesses in the UK have faced a form of cybersecurity threat between 2018 and 2019. As a result of these network security vulnerabilities, these businesses incurred costs on lost data and many other damages that totalled £4,180.
