Change is the only constant and this is especially apparent for the firewall space, as we’ve seen with branch office transformation and users continuing to work remotely. Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) architecture, when properly designed, puts the user in the center with cloud edge security services protecting them, their data, and the apps and websites they use every day, on either company or personal instances.
Shipping your apps in containers gives you the freedom to build upon the work of others. You can pick from a variety of ready-to-use container images that will run nearly any code or framework you have. Snyk Container already helps users manage their parent images and provide guidance when there are better options available — images with few vulnerabilities, or a smaller footprint overall, or both.
Snyk security policies just got a whole lot more powerful with a new action and two new conditions, helping your development and security teams assess risk and focus resources more efficiently. For developers, the less “noise” the better. Tasked with fixing issues that are simply not important or relevant is a waste of valuable development time and will likely result in creating frustration and mistrust.
Kubernetes version 1.22, the latest release of Kubernetes, comes with bug fixes, enhancements, and new features that make the platform more stable, scalable, and user-friendly. There are a total of 56 improvements with different maturity levels and a considerable number of API removals. In this article, I’ll focus on the security-related changes in Kubernetes as well as a few other significant changes in Kubernetes API and usability.
Detectify is expanding its web app fuzzing engine to scan public-facing APIs for vulnerabilities. Earlier in the year, we released a new fuzzing engine, and it was developed with API scanning in mind. In Fall 2021, we will roll out open beta testing. You can register for Detectify API fuzzer updates and beta testing program.

As a quick note, I have a personal history with .NET, including time working at Microsoft as a .NET evangelist. And I’ve briefly met Anders Jejlsberg, the designer of C# and Typescript, so this blog is a bit personal for me. We are happy to announce that Snyk Code scans for security vulnerabilities and provides remediation suggestions for yet another language: C#. This adds a major language to our portfolio which includes support for Java, JavaScript, TypeScript, and Python.
