Snyk Named a Leader in the 2025 Forrester SAST Wave: SAST Solutions, Q3 2025
September 9, 2025
0 mins readWe’re excited to announce that Snyk has been recognized as a Leader in the Forrester Wave™: Static Application Security Testing (SAST) Solutions, Q3 2025. This recognition affirms our place at the forefront of developer-first security — and highlights the innovation, customer impact, and platform breadth that continue to set us apart.
The new reality of development
The way organizations build software has changed dramatically. Cloud, microservices, and now AI-generated code have accelerated development to a pace once thought impossible. But speed without security is a risk few can afford. Forrester’s analysis reinforces what we’ve known from the beginning: modern teams need security that’s fast, developer-friendly, and future-proofed for AI.
Snyk was built for exactly this moment. From our origins as a pioneer in developer-first security to our current position as a leader in application security testing, we’ve remained focused on one goal — helping organizations build fast and stay secure.
What Forrester says about Snyk
In its evaluation, Forrester recognized several key reasons for our leadership position:
Innovation: Forrester noted that Snyk “continues to innovate faster than its peers,” fueled by the launch of our AI Trust Platform. With AI-powered prioritization and autonomous fixes, Snyk is leading the way in securing AI-driven development.
Developer experience: With fast scans, actionable results, and seamless in-workflow feedback, Snyk gives developers the tools to find and fix vulnerabilities without slowing down delivery. This ease of use has been a defining factor in our adoption across enterprises.
Enterprise-grade analytics and visibility: Snyk’s reporting and analytics “outshine its peers,” giving security leaders the ability to see and manage risk across their entire application estate.
Platform breadth: Forrester recognized our continued expansion into a comprehensive Application Security Testing (AST) platform, strengthened by acquisitions like Probely, Invariant Labs, and capabilities such as Snyk AppRisk ASPM.
Customer impact at scale: Customers told Forrester that Snyk is a key component of their shift-left strategy, ensuring vulnerabilities are caught early and never reach production.
Analyst validation
Forrester summed it up best:
“Snyk is a good fit for enterprises that want to unlock the potential of AI-driven development without sacrificing security.”
That perspective mirrors our mission: AI innovation begins with trust, and AI trust begins with Snyk.
