What happened
Snyk announced (Aug 4, 2026, Black Hat USA) general availability of Evo Continuous Offensive Security — autonomous AI-powered pentesting plus 'Agent Red Teaming' that simulates prompt injection and tool/agent abuse against running AI agents — alongside upgraded AI-SPM, a preview of an autonomous remediation agent, and GA of Snyk Secrets for the agentic dev lifecycle.
Why it matters
This is a major platform expansion from a leading AppSec/AI-security vendor that operationalizes continuous, autonomous red-teaming of production AI agents rather than periodic pentests — directly addressing the machine-speed exploitation gap the Five Eyes and Gartner have flagged.
Applicability
AppSec and AI platform security teams running agentic development pipelines should evaluate now; broad enterprise reach given Snyk's existing install base.
