Integrate Snyk IaC with Vulnetix. Scan Terraform, CloudFormation, Kubernetes, ARM, and Helm configurations for misconfigurations and export SARIF findings for upload to Vulnetix.

Run Snyk IaC in CI

Scan on every push and upload the report as a workflow artifact:

- name: Snyk IaC scan
  uses: snyk/actions/iac@master
  env:
    SNYK_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.SNYK_TOKEN }}
  with:
    file: ./terraform/

- name: Upload report
  uses: actions/upload-artifact@v6
  with:
    name: snyk-iac
    path: snyk.sarif
    if-no-files-found: warn

Then one publish job hands every artifact in the run to Vulnetix, recorded under Snyk IaC's own name and version. Written once per workflow, however many scanners you run:

publish:
  name: Publish to Vulnetix
  runs-on: ubuntu-latest
  needs: [scan]        # every scanner job, or its report is never published
  if: always()         # or one failing scanner suppresses all the others
  permissions:
    contents: read
    actions: read      # required to list the run's artifacts
  env:
    VULNETIX_ORG_ID: ${{ secrets.VULNETIX_ORG_ID }}
    VULNETIX_API_KEY: ${{ secrets.VULNETIX_API_KEY }}
  steps:
    - uses: actions/checkout@v5
    - name: Install Vulnetix CLI
      run: |
        curl -fsSL https://cli.vulnetix.com/install.sh | sh -s -- --install-dir "$HOME/.local/bin"
        echo "$HOME/.local/bin" >> "$GITHUB_PATH"
    - name: Publish scanner reports
      env:
        GITHUB_TOKEN: ${{ github.token }}
      run: vulnetix gha upload --org-id "$VULNETIX_ORG_ID" --json

After the run, vulnetix gha status reports what was actually recorded.

How Vulnetix compares: better together

Vulnetix does not replace Snyk IaC. Keep running it. Vulnetix sits on top of Snyk IaC (and every other scanner you already own) turning disconnected tool outputs into one prioritised, fixable queue.

Snyk IaC is strongest at its core category and also carries features in Cloud Security & CSPM, just as Vulnetix spans categories.

What Snyk IaC does well

Where Vulnetix adds to it: Vulnetix ingests Snyk IaC misconfiguration findings and folds them into one cross-scanner deduplicated queue alongside SAST/SCA/container/secrets, then adds exploit-intel prioritisation (EPSS/KEV/ESS/LEV), SSVC policy, versioned VEX and Safe Harbour autofix. Better together: Snyk IaC remains the IaC scanning engine; Vulnetix is the orchestration/ASPM layer on top.

No migration, no rip-and-replace. Snyk IaC keeps doing what it does best; Vulnetix adds the orchestration, exploit-intelligence prioritisation and remediation layer built for the way AppSec works today.

Centralise Snyk IaC results in Vulnetix

Upload Snyk IaC SARIF, JSON output to the Vulnetix platform to deduplicate findings, prioritise them with EPSS, CISA KEV and Coalition ESS exploit intelligence, and track remediation across every scanner in a single queue.
