Snyk Connector Guide
Summary: How to set up and use the Snyk connector in Ivanti Neurons.
Overview
Snyk OSS is an open-source security platform that allows developers to identify, prioritize, and automatically fix open-source vulnerabilities throughout the development process. Ivanti Neurons ASPM offers an API-based connector that integrates Snyk OSS vulnerability information into the Ivanti Neurons ASPM platform for further prioritization and accessibility. This connector does not ingest Snyk Code vulnerability information.
