Case Study: Neiman Marcus adopts developer-first security with Snyk

How Neiman Marcus transitioned to developer-first security

Neiman Marcus, a 100-year-old retailer undergoing digital transformation, needed to move from legacy on-prem infrastructure to cloud while improving security without slowing development. In the process, the company looked for a way to connect cloud security and application security and give developers a more active role in securing code and dependencies. Snyk was brought in to help address this developer-first security challenge, including Snyk Open Source for software composition analysis.

Neiman Marcus implemented Snyk by first scanning critical projects, then expanding it into developer onboarding, IDE workflows, and delivery pipelines. With Snyk, the team gained immediate vulnerability visibility, enabled developers to fix issues earlier, and created a more unified security workflow across cloud and application security. The company also reported measurable value through regular Snyk reviews, including estimates of man-hours saved by avoiding manual vulnerability remediation, and used scanning activity data to identify developer security champions.
