Snyk is a developer-first security platform that scans code, open-source dependencies, containers, and infrastructure as code for vulnerabilities.

What is Snyk?

Snyk was founded in 2015 in London with the mission of making developer security automatic rather than a separate gate at the end of the development process. Its core innovation was a vulnerability database and scanning engine that integrated directly into the tools developers already use — the CLI, IDE plugins for VS Code and IntelliJ, CI/CD pipelines, and pull request checks — so that security feedback arrived in the same workflow where code was being written rather than in a separate security team's queue. This "shift left" philosophy, combined with actionable fix suggestions and automatic pull request generation, drove rapid enterprise adoption.

Snyk scans for vulnerabilities in open-source dependencies (Snyk Open Source), container images (Snyk Container), infrastructure-as-code configurations (Snyk IaC), and custom application code (Snyk Code). For engineering organizations that have embedded Snyk into their CI/CD pipelines as a required step before deployment, a Snyk service outage can block the entire deployment pipeline — pull requests cannot be merged if Snyk's PR check is required to pass and the check cannot reach Snyk's API to complete.

Snyk outages typically appear as CLI scans hanging indefinitely or returning API connection errors, IDE extensions failing to display vulnerability annotations in the editor, PR checks on GitHub or GitLab remaining in "pending" state without completing, the Snyk web dashboard failing to load project vulnerability lists, and webhook delivery failures that prevent CI/CD integrations from receiving scan results. Organizations that gate deployments on Snyk scan completion are particularly exposed during these outages.

Outage.gg monitors Snyk service status through real-time community reports. If your CLI scans are timing out or PR checks have stalled, check the live status page to determine whether Snyk is experiencing a platform-wide disruption and subscribe to be notified when full scanning service is restored.
