Snyk and Rapid7 Extend Strategic Partnership

Cloud-native application security company Snyk and Rapid7, Inc., a leading provider of security analytics and automation, announced plans to deepen their existing strategic partnership and provide a comprehensive end-to-end solution to cloud-native application security, uncovering vulnerabilities both statically and dynamically.

Prior to today’s announcement, the Snyk and Rapid7 partnership included an integration that allows Rapid7’s tCell, a Next-Gen Cloud WAF and RASP solution, to leverage Snyk Intel, embedding continuous security into the application development process. This next phase of the partnership will provide developers with the ability to secure the critical components of today’s cloud native application development, underpinned by Snyk’s developer-first Software Composition Analysis (Snyk Open Source Security Management) and Static Application Security Testing (Snyk Code) solutions together with Rapid7’s industry-leading Dynamic Application Security Testing (InsightAppSec).
