The article discusses the growing reliance on APIs in generative AI software development, highlighting vulnerabilities that may endanger AI models. Snyk's recent enhancements, following its 2024 acquisition of Probely, aim to centralize application security with a new interface combining SAST, SCA, and DAST findings. Moreover, it introduces an AI-powered API testing engine to target OWASP's Top 10 risks effectively, alongside a Command-Line Interface for better asset management. This integration seeks to streamline workflows, automate CI/CD processes, and enhance vulnerability detection efforts within software supply chains.
As companies increasingly use generative AI for software development, APIs are an indispensable bridge between Large Language Models (LLMs) and the applications they feed.
Snyk API & Web will gain enterprise features through a new Command-Line Interface (CLI) for organizations with extensive asset portfolios, streamlining workflows and enabling automation in CI/CD pipelines.
Snyk is also introducing an AI-powered API testing engine that combines GenAI and traditional AI/ML models to extend coverage of critical aspects in OWASP's Top 10 API security risks.
By extracting critical information directly from code, Snyk API & Web Code-Informed Dynamic Testing automatically configures DAST tests, optimizing scan accuracy.
