Identifying and resolving security code vulnerabilities using Snyk in AWS CI/CD Pipeline

The majority of companies have embraced open-source software (OSS) at an accelerated rate even when building proprietary applications. Some of the obvious benefits for this shift include transparency, cost, flexibility, and a faster time to market. Snyk’s unique combination of developer-first tooling and best in class security depth enables businesses to easily build security into their continuous development process.

Even for teams building proprietary code, use of open-source packages and libraries is a necessity. In reality, a developer’s own code is often a small core within the app, and the rest is open-source software. While relying on third-party elements has obvious benefits, it also presents numerous complexities. Inadvertently introducing vulnerabilities into your codebase through repositories that are maintained in a distributed fashion and with widely varying levels of security expertise can be common, and opens up applications to effective attacks downstream.
