Configure mutual TLS for target authentication in Snyk API & Web

We added support for mutual TLS (mTLS) configuration for Web, OpenAPI, and Postman targets in Snyk API & Web. This allows you to extend your security testing to cover even your most strictly secured and authenticated endpoints.

We implemented this feature to support organizations that required higher levels of security or mutual trust between client and server. This allows our crawler and scanner to authenticate successfully with services that enforce strict mTLS requirements, ensuring comprehensive security coverage for your protected targets.

In the authentication tab for your Web and API targets, you will see a new CLIENT AUTHENTICATION CERTIFICATE module under your target Settings. You can use this to upload the necessary certificates for authentication. This change allows you to scan targets that were previously inaccessible due to mutual TLS requirements.

To enable this feature, please contact the Sales team.
