How Axel Springer National Media and Tech achieved continuous security with Snyk

Axel Springer National Media and Tech, a leading digital publisher in Europe, partnered with Snyk to achieve continuous security coverage for its software development lifecycle. Prior to implementing Snyk, the company lacked consistency in its vulnerability scanning processes and tooling, resulting in limited visibility into its applications and manual security processes that took up significant time and effort. By integrating Snyk Code and Snyk Open Source, Axel Springer was able to shift left its security approach, equipping developers with tools to find and fix vulnerabilities early in the pipeline. Today, the team has over 90% security scan coverage of its relevant repositories, providing complete transparency into its existing code and open source vulnerabilities. With this level of visibility, Axel Springer can motivate teams to implement processes that fix vulnerabilities continuously and prioritize fixes based on risk scores, allowing them to focus on the most critical issues first.
