Coalfire, an industry-leading cybersecurity services and solutions company, announced a partnership with Snyk, the leader in developer security, to operationalize application and code security faster than ever. This partnership brings Coalfire’s hackers and defenders to the critical work of detecting and stopping vulnerabilities in the code development phase and beyond. Combining Snyk’s leading Developer Security Platform with Coalfire’s hacker expertise provides a threat-informed view of vulnerabilities, enabling enterprises to more rapidly address the most pressing flaws in their code and applications.
Organizations of all sizes often struggle with enabling their security teams to reduce risk in their development environments, whether in proprietary code, open source modules, containers, or Infrastructure as Code. Snyk’s world class platform enables developer teams to identify and fix those vulnerabilities and misconfigurations from the integrated development environment (IDE) to the operation of their cloud environments. The addition of Coalfire’s hackers and defenders brings in a threat-informed perspective to prioritize the remediation of those vulnerabilities, which optimizes security outcomes for customers.
Through this partnership, Coalfire’s experts assist clients with deployment of the Snyk platform, implementing Snyk best practices, facilitating comprehensive testing, reviewing scan results and prioritizing vulnerabilities, as well as providing expert guidance on risk management and secure coding. Coalfire also integrates Snyk with various developer workflows, including Jira, Slack, and CI/CD pipelines. Additionally, Coalfire defenders provide regular reporting on developer adoption and overall risk posture. These experts also conduct periodic policy updates, scan evaluations, and seek feedback from development teams for continuous process improvement to drive holistic security across the application and development environments.
