Gartner predicts that by 2025, 45% of organizations worldwide will have experienced attacks on their software supply chains, a three-fold increase from 2021.
Hear firsthand from Snyk customers on how implementing developer-first security helped them reduce risk and increase developer productivity in 2022.
Part One
Snyk provides broad coverage across the software supply chain so you can scan more and do it faster — with customers reporting an average 249% increase in projects scanned with Snyk in 2022. As projects are scanned, Snyk assigns a Priority Score to each issue along with actionable fix advice for developers. These automations help teams respond quickly to critical vulnerabilities and dramatically improve risk posture.

Supply chain attacks have increased in both volume and frequency in recent years, with organizations anticipating an average of ~3 security breaches each year. And with breaches costing an average of $4.55M, implementing a comprehensive framework for supply chain security is critical to protecting your bottom line.

When a zero-day vulnerability is detected, CISOs know there is nothing more important than acting quickly to protect your customers and your business. Snyk customers affected by the 2021 Log4Shell vulnerability were able to fix within an average of 3.82 days thanks to features including Snyk’s automatic Log4Shell fix PR and the Snyk API. This number includes both direct and indirect (transitive) instances of the vulnerable library.

"It was so easy to use Snyk to search issues by the CVE and quickly identify all the projects with the [Log4Shell] vulnerability. In addition to identifying all the application assets that needed to be fixed, it’s a simple way to watch the issues go down and ensure completeness.”
David Matousek
Director of Global Cybersecurity Services
"It’s hard to have good visibility into millions of lines of code. We knew we had potential vulnerabilities, but couldn’t quantify it. Snyk gave us the capability to see the numbers for the first time. At that point it was a slam dunk. We needed to use Snyk.”

Part Two
We asked CTOs what factors are most important when considering new tooling, and to no surprise, developer productivity came out on top. Unlike other application security tools, Snyk is built directly into developer workflows, helping businesses embrace the DevSecOps model and improve efficiency.

The average U.S. developer rate is $70/hour, according to a 2021 Developer Survey by Stack Overflow.
The market for hiring talented developers is extremely competitive, with software engineering roles often sitting for months without being filled. With Snyk, security becomes a seamless part of your development teams’ workflows, saving time and enabling them to produce more secure code. Enterprise customers report saving an average of 8,300 developer hours

"Spotify has thousands of engineers, so we were very intentional when implementing security testing automation, keeping developer needs top of mind and freeing up developers to focus on their own priorities. For some languages and frameworks, we’ve automatically embedded vulnerability scanning in CI/CD pipelines, so the adoption has been seamless and hasn’t required any action from developers… Now the number of scanned projects continues to increase.”
Edina Muminovic
Engineering Manager
Security engineers have multiple responsibilities, and it becomes really difficult to perform numerous reviews each month, especially if the requests are time-constrained. We thought we could automate this process to potentially save some time for the engineers… I’m an advocate for automation and shifting left and I think Snyk is one of the most important tools to scale the security effort across an organization.”

Part Three
The most effective security program is one in which developers and security engineers can solve problems together, quickly. Snyk provides a frictionless developer experience and enables security teams to build guardrails directly into developer workflows, helping break down silos between these two departments.

Snyk Code scans at a rate of 3.2x faster than other SAST tools, yet another time-saver that helps development teams meet sprint deadlines and security teams meet SLAs. That’s what we call a win-win.
"Snyk has really given developers the ability to start thinking about security as they’re developing code. It’s allowed [them] to be much more proactive in fixing vulnerabilities… Compared to our previous tooling, Snyk’s scanning is 2x faster and much more integrated to their tooling and processes. The developers are also quite happy that it’s a lot easier to navigate.”
