Synack is a premier security testing firm that utilizes the power of human expertise and AI technology to deliver continuous, trusted security testing at scale. It allows organizations to test their entire attack surface with AI-driven pentesting, while its Synack Red Team validates real, exploitative risk. Organizations benefit from continuous security validation and periodic testing delivered by the Synack Platform. They are assured of a 32% reduction in total cost per pentest, 22 days of team time saved per pentest, 35 hours of analyst and developer time saved, along with 47% faster MTTR.
The Synack Platform offers an automated penetration testing experience that can be launched in days, reducing the risk organizations face over time. It covers web application penetration testing to remove most of the noise before verification and delivery of organizations’ vulnerabilities, host penetration testing to secure hosts through human or AI agent-led pentesting, cloud penetration testing to protect ephemeral environments with point-in-time or continuous testing to detect high risk vulnerabilities, API penetration testing to uncover vulnerabilities in headless endpoints using specialized researcher missions, and attack surface management to eliminate security blind spots by continuously discovering, fingerprinting, and prioritizing internet-facing assets for immediate testing.
The Synack Red Team is an elite community of security researchers who bring a diverse set of skills to every test for supporting teams’ pentesting initiatives. Synack’s SRT ensures that all logic flaws, chained exports, and nuanced vulnerabilities are discovered to bridge the gap between automated detection and human intuition. Moreover, Synack has been recognized as a Fast Mover and Leader in the GigaOm Radar Report for Penetration Testing as a Service (PTaaS), which is a testament to the flexibility, value, and scalability it offers compared to other PTaaS vendors.
Scaling Continuous Security Testing with Agentic AI and Human Expertise
Synack offers two primary services that unite the power of human expertise and AI technology to deliver continuous, trusting security testing at scale:
The Synack Platform: it is an end-to-end security testing solution, enhanced by agentic AI, to help organizations find and resolve the vulnerabilities that matter to improve their security posture over time. At its core, it comprises a PTaaS platform that provides full control and visibility of the attack surface, supported by its own proprietary targeted AI capabilities to maximize efficiency. The platform provides time to value in days, assists organizations in acting on critical vulnerabilities, and provides executive-level reporting for leadership and the board of directors.
The platform encompasses attack surface discovery to maintain a current inventory of attack surface assets, from web applications to IP addresses, to verify the last time an attack was penetrated. It includes attack surface analytics to help organizations find and fix security gaps in the attack surface by conducting additional pentesting for identifying apps and services to add to their testing program. Vulnerability discovery allows automated and human-led discovery of vulnerabilities through scanning and penetration testing to identify exploitable, high-impact vulnerabilities that are then triaged into the platform. Vulnerability management comprises organizations integrating vulnerability findings into existing SOC solutions, confirming remediation of vulnerabilities with patch identification, and managing their vulnerability disclosure program. Lastly, the reporting capabilities offered allow organizations to share findings and perform root cause analysis for improving processes. These reports can be tailored for DevSecOps, their executive leadership, and board of directors.
Sara AI Pentesting: Synack Autonomous Red Agent (Sara) AI helps organizations transition from testing only a fraction of their attack surface towards expanded coverage across their environment. Security teams usually prioritize penetration testing, but despite their efforts, most environments remain largely untested. Due to this, critical vulnerabilities remain undiscovered, security coverage is incomplete, and attack paths go untested. Sara solves this problem by expanding security testing across organizations’ entire attack surface using AI-driven discovery and analysis. By acting as a force multiplier for offensive security, it scaled testing far beyond what manual approaches can achieve. Synack delivers continuous security validation through a unique combination of AI and human expertise. Sara AI pentesting follows a four-step process of discovery, analysis, validation, and delivery to become the ideal platform for modern security teams in enterprises and complex environments, along with cloud and SaaS-first organizations, among others.
Synack’s comprehensive and innovative services, in conjunction with its elite community of skilled ethical hackers called the Synack Red Team, make it a worthy recipient of the “Global Innovation Excellence Awards 2026.”
