Snyk Code

Snyk Code is a developer-first static application security testing (SAST) tool powered by DeepCode AI that scans code in real-time, identifies security vulnerabilities, and provides actionable one-click fix suggestions directly within the developer's IDE. Part of the broader Snyk security platform, it covers the full application security lifecycle from code to cloud.

Key Capabilities

Snyk Code performs real-time code scanning within IDEs to identify security vulnerabilities like SQL injection, cross-site scripting, and weak cryptography before code is committed. Powered by DeepCode AI, it goes beyond syntax-level analysis to perform semantic analysis that traces data flows through applications. One-click fix suggestions let developers remediate issues without leaving their workflow. The platform supports a wide range of programming languages, integrates with CI/CD pipelines for automated scanning, and offers a contributor-based billing model that only charges for developers who actively commit code.

Who Should Use Snyk Code

Snyk Code is designed for development teams building secure applications, security-conscious organizations needing SAST in their DevSecOps pipeline, and enterprises requiring compliance with security standards. Its contributor-based pricing model makes it cost-effective for organizations with mixed teams of committers and non-committing reviewers.
