October 14, 2025
0 mins readWe’re thrilled to announce that Snyk has been recognized as a Leader in the 2025 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for Application Security Testing (AST)! This recognition, based on our vision and ability to execute, validates our core mission: to empower developers to build securely from the start while giving security teams complete visibility and comprehensive controls.
While software is being built with unprecedented speed—fueled by cloud, microservices, and AI—the need for developer-centric security is more critical than ever. We believe our placement as a Leader affirms that the market is embracing the shift-left, developer-first approach we’ve pioneered.
The complete Snyk Platform: Securing the modern SDLC
Snyk’s comprehensive AST offerings are designed to secure all components of the modern application, integrating seamlessly into your existing workflows:
This year, we continued to expand our platform and drive innovation. In 2025, Snyk acquired Invariant Labs to advance our AI and machine learning security capabilities. We also launched Snyk API & Web in 2025, delivering DAST as a fully integrated solution following the 2024 acquisition of Probely’s technology.
Snyk’s strengths in AI and developer enablement
The report validates several of what we see as key strengths that position Snyk at the forefront of the AST market:
AI-powered remediation: Snyk delivers remediation suggestions and human-in-the-loop fix automation with rollback capabilities. This functionality is available across SAST, IaC, SCA, and container findings, working directly within IDEs, pull requests, the Snyk web UI, and via CLI.
Developer Enablement: Snyk integrates with developer tools across the entire SDLC, offering feedback, remediation guidance, and automated remediation where developers live—in IDEs, SCM workflows, CI/CD pipelines, and ticketing systems.
AI Risk Detection: Snyk is proactively securing the AI-driven future. We identify and surface known risks associated with open source AI components and treat output from Large Language Models (LLMs) as untrusted inputs, ensuring added scrutiny during testing.
Snyk's focus on AI-powered solutions is designed to meet the speed and scale of modern software development, making security a seamless, automated part of the process.
What's next? Driving towards a more secure future
While we celebrate this recognition, we remain committed to continuously improving the platform. This recognition as a Leader in the 2025 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for Application Security Testing fuels our drive to give developers and security teams the tools they need to build securely at scale.
