Snyk
Developer security platform — vulns in deps, code, containers, IaC.
About
Snyk (snyk.io) is the developer security platform: vulnerability scanning across dependencies, code (DeepCode AI), containers, and IaC — with fix PRs, not just findings.
The enterprise standard for 'find it and fix it' security. Some open-source components; the platform is commercial. Freemium for small teams.

Use cases
Works with
Trust score — 8/10
Scored 8/10 (verified tier). The developer-security category leader with real enterprise traction and fix-PR differentiation. Docked for proprietary platform. Adoption is a provider-tier estimate (thinner evidence). Verified tier.
How the trust score is built
Full methodology →- Adoption · stars/downloads, log-scaled vs peers
- 8.0/10
- Maintenance · recency, releases, issue load
- 7.0/10
- Openness · license + docs
- 6.9/10
- Manual review · sanity read + red-flag check
- 8.0/10
- · provider-tier estimate — thinner evidence (no public adoption metric)
- · major security platform; no public repo — adoption estimated
- · released 285 days ago
- · manual review: Snyk — vuln scanning (deps, code, containers, IaC); DeepCode AI; enterprise standard; license: proprietary platform; some open-source components
