What if there was a large, global event dedicated to finding and fixing security vulnerabilities in both open and closed-source software? An event that brings developers, DevOps, and security practitioners of all skill levels and backgrounds together to collectively make the software world more secure? Well, I’m excited to announce that Snyk has made this a reality by launching The Big Fix — a month-long event that’s running now!

We have all heard of the term infrastructure as code (IaC), however code in this context is not really code in the sense of a programming language. IaC usually refers to the configuration of infrastructure via tools like Terraform, CloudFormation, Kubernetes YAML, or Azure Resource Manager templates, which is really the definition of how the infrastructure will be created.

The Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard, also known as PCI DSS is a thorough process that reviews a company’s systems and policies for handling and storage of sensitive consumer cardholder data.

We’re almost two months from the disclosure of Log4Shell, and we here at Snyk couldn’t be more excited with the role we’ve gotten to play in finding and fixing this critical vulnerability that’s impacted so many Java shops. For starters, we’ve been able to help our customers remediate Log4Shell 100x faster than the industry average! How have we been able to achieve that?

As enterprises continue to undergo digital transformation, rapidly delivering secure software has become a necessity. Essential to this goal is the ability to measure and manage application risk across a large number of projects and development teams. In this post, we’ll cover two insightful talks from SnykCon 2021 about risk management and measuring key risk indicators for enterprise applications.

Here at Snyk, we spend a lot of time researching vulnerabilities. We do that because there are a lot of other folks out there researching new ways to break into apps and systems. We’re often putting on our “grey hats” to think like a malicious hacker. I regularly view-source, look at network traffic and eyeball query strings. One such delicious little query string caught my attention this week on one of the many copycat Wordle sites.
