Frictionless security

Snyk & Cursor

Snyk integrates with Cursor using MCP to make it easier to secure software from the start. With Snyk embedded into Cursor, developers can detect security issues as code is written and burn down the backlog. No context-switching, fewer interruptions, and a focus on innovation.

Snyk Standardizes AI Security

Snyk Contributes New MCP Security Controls to the OWASP LLM Security Verification Standard.

Secure AI, faster

AI-powered Development: A New Frontier

Agentic workflows are transforming software development, leveraging AI-powered tools to write, edit, and manage code — but security remains a concern. 

The new Snyk and Cursor integration, powered by MCP, brings Snyk’s scanning and auto-fixing functionality to Cursor so developers can innovate quickly and safely.

Simplify security

Secure at inception

Snyk integrates directly into Cursor, so developers can code securely and fix issues before deployment.

Improve code quality

Burn down the backlog

Automatically scan your existing repositories to assess, prioritize, and remediate with Snyk context.

Enhance productivity

Immediate feedback loop

Accelerate workflows at the speed of AI with real-time feedback and actionable fixes.

Deliver better results

Unmatched speed

By scanning code twice as fast with Snyk Code, Cursor gains real-time vulnerability context to deliver high-quality code.

Real-time scanning

A unified prevention experience in Cursor

Whether writing code manually or generating it through Cursor's LLM-powered assistant, developers are immediately alerted to security flaws in their workflow. Apply the full power of Snyk to your Cursor-generated code without leaving your IDE.

Scan twice as fast

Secure at the speed of AI

Snyk is built on the fastest, most accurate, and most comprehensive set of AI-ready testing engines. Snyk autonomously generates and validates fixes so developers can secure code at the speed of AI.

Production-ready code

Simple rules for better outcomes

Using Cursor and Snyk, developers can create rules to automatically run scans. Over time, Cursor adapts to the guardrails to more effectively manage updating dependencies or misconfigurations — freeing developers from security concerns.
