AWS Immersion Day with Snyk: Secure Your App Modernization Initiatives in Development

As companies around the world migrate their applications or build them natively within leading cloud environments like AWS, application developers must once again readjust how they approach building and securing cloud-centric and cloud-native applications. Just as DevOps bridges the gap between developers and operations teams, introducing security earlier in development creates a more continuous DevSecOps workflow that, when integrated into the right tools, can empower developers to find and fix vulnerabilities in each of the components of their application without losing agility or speed.

During this workshop, experts from Snyk, AWS HashiCorp and Presidio will guide you through the process of defining and deploying AWS services using HashiCorp Terraform and Terraform Cloud. They’ll show you how to secure your infrastructure with Snyk by scanning your projects as you author your infrastructure and demonstrate how to gate the operation as part of an automated workflow.
