FAQPage Schema
How do I perform a comprehensive vulnerability assessment for code, containers, and IaC?

A comprehensive vulnerability assessment scans your codebase and infrastructure using Snyk tools for SAST, SCA, container security, and IaC scanning. This identifies known vulnerabilities and ensures your deployment meets cybersecurity standards.

Can I evaluate AI system compliance against EU AI Act Art. 15 cybersecurity requirements?

Yes, you can evaluate AI system compliance against EU AI Act Art. 15 requirements by assessing the implementation, documentation, and monitoring of cybersecurity risks. This ensures your AI systems meet regulatory security and risk mitigation standards.

What is the best way to automate security scanning for a microservice before deployment?

Automating security scanning for a microservice involves running Snyk SAST and SCA checks across your project dependencies. This evaluates your code against known vulnerabilities, ensuring it meets security standards and regulatory compliance before deployment.

Does this security assessment cover infrastructure as code and container security checks?

Yes, the security assessment covers infrastructure as code and container security checks alongside SAST and SCA. Utilizing Snyk tools, it evaluates your codebase and infrastructure components to identify vulnerabilities and enforce cybersecurity best practices.

How do I document cybersecurity risks for EU AI Act compliance?

To document cybersecurity risks for EU AI Act compliance, you assess AI systems against Art. 15 requirements for risk evaluation, implementation, and monitoring. This provides the necessary documentation to prove security and risk mitigation compliance.

What types of security vulnerabilities can Snyk identify in my codebase?

Snyk identifies security vulnerabilities in your codebase through static application security testing, software composition analysis, container security, and infrastructure as code scanning. This comprehensive approach detects known vulnerabilities across your entire project infrastructure.
