Today marks a significant milestone for Snyk and, more importantly, for the security posture of the U.S. Government. I’m thrilled to introduce Snyk for Government, our FedRAMP Moderate authorized solution for the Public Sector.
This authorization underscores our unwavering commitment to providing secure development solutions that meet the rigorous standards of the Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP). It means that U.S. Government agencies can now confidently leverage Snyk’s comprehensive platform to identify and remediate vulnerabilities throughout their software development lifecycle, knowing it meets the stringent security and compliance requirements mandated by the Federal Government.
This achievement is not just a certification; it’s a testament to our dedication to building trust and ensuring the integrity of the software that powers critical Government functions. It allows agencies to embrace modern development practices, including the use of open source software and cloud-native technologies, with the assurance that security is baked in from the start.
The Power of Proactive Security
At Snyk, we believe that security shouldn’t be an afterthought. It needs to be an integral part of the development process. Our platform empowers developers to find and fix vulnerabilities in their code, dependencies, containers and infrastructure as code – early and often. This proactive approach not only reduces risk but also accelerates development cycles by preventing security issues from becoming costly roadblocks later on.
Snyk for Government offers the same powerful capabilities that our enterprise customers rely on, tailored to the specific needs and compliance requirements of Government agencies based on NIST 800-53v5 security controls. This includes:
- Comprehensive Vulnerability Detection: Identifying security flaws in open source libraries, proprietary code, containers and infrastructure configurations.
- Actionable Remediation Advice: Providing clear guidance and automated fixes to address vulnerabilities quickly and efficiently.
- Policy Enforcement: Enabling organizations to define and enforce security policies across their development teams.
- Integration with Developer Tools: Seamlessly integrating with popular IDEs, build tools and CI/CD pipelines.
- Detailed Reporting and Compliance Features: Providing the visibility and documentation needed to meet FedRAMP requirements.
Investing in the Future of Security: The Snyk AI Advantage
At Snyk we recognize the transformative potential of AI in cybersecurity. By leveraging machine learning and advanced algorithms, we are building intelligent capabilities into our platform that will provide even more accurate vulnerability detection, smarter remediation recommendations and enhanced threat intelligence.
AI is accelerating development faster than ever with Snyk you can ensure the code flooding your systems is secure and, beyond development, verify AI-powered apps aren’t creating unmanaged security risks. Ensure your organization stays secure our AI enabled agentic solution:
- Keep Pace with Development: Learn how to scale security to match AI-generated code’s unprecedented speed and volume.
- Staying Ahead of New Threat Vectors: Tackle emerging AI threats as apps increasingly leverage LLMs.
- Adapting Developer Workflows: Explore the evolving role of developers and the skills needed for a new era of AI-assisted coding and building AI-powered apps.
- Build Upon ApSec Governance: Leverage AppSec governance towards secure AI adoption and risk management.
For U.S. Government agencies, these AI-driven advancements will translate into a more resilient and secure digital infrastructure. For the enterprises that service the Government, integrating Snyk’s AI-powered platform into their development processes will not only help them meet stringent security requirements but also provide a competitive edge by building more secure and reliable solutions.
The FedRAMP Moderate authorization for Snyk for Government is a significant step forward in our mission to empower organizations to build securely. Combined with our ongoing investment in cutting-edge technologies like AI, we are confident that Snyk will continue to be a trusted partner for the U.S. Government and its partners in navigating the evolving landscape of software security.
We are excited about this milestone and look forward to helping Government agencies and their partners build a more secure digital future, together.
