Seal Security Joins Snyk Technology Alliance Partner Program

Seal Security is excited to announce it’ll join Snyk’s Technology Alliance Partner Program, to provide a seamless integration and product experience for Snyk customers who want to streamline their open source vulnerability patching efforts using Seal’s solution.

How Seal’sSolution Works

Our solution provides users with a curated repository of secure, standalone, patched libraries, or "sealed packages." These packages are specifically designed to backport security fixes, creating fully compatible versions of open source packages while decoupling security patches from feature upgrades. This innovative approach allows users to apply critical security patches to both direct and transitive dependencies without causing breaking changes or requiring extensive R&D involvement.

How Snyk’s Solution Works

Snyk is a developer-friendly security platform that helps customers test for security risks in code, open source dependencies, containers and IaC configurations with tight integration into various IDEs, source control tooling, and CI/CD pipelines to meet developers wherever they work. Once vulnerabilities are discovered, Snyk helps developers prioritize fixes based on analysis of the vulnerabilities that bear a higher risk and offers automated fixes and actionable remediation advice to drastically reduce the time it takes to fix vulnerabilities, accelerating software development initiatives, securely.

Key Benefits ofUsing Seal Security with Snyk:

● Leverage Snyk deployment for quicker ROI in risk avoidance

● Automatic fixes for direct and transitive open source dependencies

● Sealed packages with zero-to-low known CVEs

● Reduced mean time to remediation (MTTR)

● Apply security patches with minimal R&D cost

● No breaking code changes

● A win-win for security and engineering teams

● Patching unmaintained and legacy code

“We’re thrilled to see Seal Security tap into the full potential of the Snyk Technology Alliance Partner Program,”said Jill Wilkins, Sr. Director, Global Alliances, at Snyk. “We love to see how partners in our growing ecosystem are helping businesses capitalize on new growth opportunities that empower developers to build fast and securely. This new Snyk App is a direct advancement of our collaborative mission to help businesses successfully manage risk without sacrificing the efficiencies of modern application development methodologies.”

What’s Next?

This integration with Snyk is just the beginning.We’ll continue to roll out new apps and integrations, working closely with Snyk to meet the ever-changing security needs of security teams and developers. Stay tuned for more launches and updates as we strive to provide innovative solutions that empower developers to build fast and securely.

Curated OSS Catalogs: Enhancing Security and Efficiency in Software Development

Organizations are increasingly relying on open source software (OSS) to accelerate development and innovation. However, with great power comes great responsibility – and in this case, significant security risks. Enter the curated OSS catalog, a solution that ensures secure-by-default OSS usage. Let’s explore what a curated OSS catalog are and who stands to benefit from them.

The Impending EOL of CentOS 7: What You Need to Know and How to Prepare

As we approach the EOL, it's crucial to understand the current status of vulnerabilities in CentOS 7. The official docker container of CentOS 7 has 1 critical rated vulnerability, 13 high rated vulnerabilities, and 36 medium and low rated vulnerabilities. Even after installing all the available updates, we are still left with 2 highly rated and 17 medium and low vulnerabilities.

Eliminating Protestware Risks with Seal Security: Ensuring Secure Library Usage

In today's interconnected world, software vulnerabilities pose a significant threat to organizations of all sizes. To address these risks, companies typically rely on timely updates and patches for third-party libraries. However, a new challenge has emerged in the form of protestware – software intentionally manipulated to convey messages, potentially causing unintended consequences or harm.
