Amazon Inspector vs. Snyk

Amazon Inspector is an automated vulnerability management service that continuously scans AWS workloads—including Amazon EC2 instances, container images in Amazon ECR, AWS Lambda functions, and code repositories—for software vulnerabilities and unintended network exposure. By integrating seamlessly with AWS environments, it provides real-time detection and prioritization of security issues, enabling organizations to enhance their security posture efficiently.

Snyk (pronounced sneak) is a developer security platform for securing custom code, open source dependencies, containers, and cloud infrastructure all from a single platform. Snyk’s developer security solutions enable modern applications to be built securely, empowering developers to own and build security for the whole application, from code & open source to containers & cloud infrastructure. Secure while you code in your IDE: find issues quickly using the scanner, fix issues easily with remediation advice, verify the updated code.
