By building a capability-based ecosystem, Snyk is aligning partners to address the scale, complexity, and security challenges of AI-powered software development, while driving sustained revenue growth and customer success.
The intersection of developer security and artificial intelligence is no longer theoretical. It’s happening in real time and reshaping not only how code is written but also how companies approach partnerships and customer engagement. At the center of this transformation is Snyk, a developer security company methodically building an ecosystem to address the scale and complexity of the emerging AI-driven software development environment.
Market Conditions
Software development no longer belongs solely to trained engineers. AI-assisted coding tools have expanded the pool of individuals generating software. As companies embrace these tools, they’re accelerating both their innovation cycles and their exposure to security vulnerabilities. This creates a dual challenge:
- How to drive innovation securely and at a high pace of development
- How to manage increasingly complex security architectures as businesses become more software-defined
Snyk recognized that securing applications at the developer level — before code is committed to production — is critical. The so-called “shift-left” security model, in which vulnerabilities are addressed earlier in the software development lifecycle, is now table stakes.
What’s different today is the scale at which code is being generated, much of it by AI agents integrated into development environments. The result is an array of entirely new vulnerabilities that demand a more sophisticated approach to developer security, one that anticipates both human- and machine-generated code errors.
