Snyk Code
Static Application Security Testing (SAST) re-imagined for the developer.
Secure code with a developer-friendly experience
Snyk Code uses a revolutionary approach designed to be developer-first. Conventional Static Application Security Testing (SAST) tools are limited by lengthy scans times and poor accuracy, returning too many false positives, and eroding developer trust. Snyk Code makes developer efforts efficient and actionable.

Dev-Friendly Experience
Proven Snyk experience extended to code security testing

Real-Time Scan Results
See results as you code, with scans 10-50x faster than other solutions

Find More Vulnerabilities
Using semantic analysis to unveil security and performance bugs
Bringing a frictionless dev-first approach to SAST
Efficiency from a single platform
Leverage a platform approach to address code, open source and containers to enable modern development shops to develop fast and stay secure!
Secure coding from the start
Release more secure code on-time with a developer-first security tool, no need to compile.
DevSecOps
Enable modern development teams to embrace security to increase the overall speed and quality of software.
IDE plugins improve developer productivity
Real-time testing integrated into developer workflows drive quick issue resolution.
Rich curated content
Clear context-aware argumentation and explanation of finding. Additional information to learn and prevent.
Open Source Examples
Provides examples on how open source libraries with the same issue fixed it.
Test and Fix as early as possible, directly from your workbench
Integrated IDE check
Detect, learn, and fix vulnerabilities during coding to avoid future fixing time and save development time.
Native Git scanning
Test your projects directly from the repositories and monitor daily for new vulnerabilities.
CI/CD security gate
Integrate code vulnerability scans into the build process by adding an automated Snyk Code test to your CI/CD.
AI that augments the developer experience
Snyk Code follows a fundamentally new concept for static code analysis. Its unprecedented speed and accuracy provides actionable results right when the code is written. The result is code security plus developer productivity and motivation.

Real-time semantic code analysis
The unique speed of the Snyk Code engine allows it to process vast amounts of code and quickly identify patterns of change that occur in code. The engine then uses logic programming rules to surface security issues enriched with meta information such as explanation and examples.

Continuous AI Learning
The Snyk Code AI engine uses a special process that combines machine learning from millions of open-source commits and feedback from a Snyk Security Expert. It uses the known issues from Snyk’s Security Intelligence database to inform the training set. The process is unique and guarantees a continually growing and refined symbolic AI knowledge-base for code security with extensive easy to understand and curated content.
Secure every layer of your application with Snyk’s developer security platform
Modern applications are more than just the code your developers create. Snyk Code is part of the Snyk platform, helping developers build software securely across the cloud native application stack, including code, open source, containers, Kubernetes and infrastructure as code.
