Proud to be recognized with two Global InfoSec Awards from Cyber Defense Magazine: 1. Market Leader in AI-Powered Cybersecurity Solutions, and 2. Trailblazer in PTaaS. This recognition reflects the work behind it — from our global community of security researchers, the Synack Red Team, to the engineering teams building and operating the Synack platform. It also reflects how modern penetration testing actually works: - Agentic AI executes at scale across the attack surface, - Human security experts validate what’s truly exploitable, and - Everything is delivered through the Synack platform as part of a continuous testing model. Most teams don’t have a workflow problem — they have a coverage problem. Too much of the attack surface remains untested. That’s what this model is built to solve. #CyberSecurity #PenetrationTesting #AI #PTaaS
Hear it straight from our 2026 Global Infosec Award winner, Synack, fueling innovation and setting the pace with forward-thinking solutions for today’s evolving cyber landscape.

Because artificial intelligence is fundamentally built to recognize patterns from the past, it lacks the out-of-the-box creativity required to imagine—and defend against—novel attacks that have never been seen before. At Synack, we don’t choose between AI and humans. We run them in parallel. That’s how you move from coverage to true confidence. Read more below.

Inspired by the recent JD UP recap this week from JD Sports Fashion. It was great to look back on a brilliant couple of days in Manchester. 🙌 Synack was proud to support JD UP alongside the JD Foundation, speaking to 10,000+ students about #cybersecurity and future pathways into tech. The password challenge was a big favourite. 🔐 Plenty of competition, lots of smart questions, and some very quick learners. It was great to see so much curiosity around how ethical hackers think and how organisations defend themselves in the real world. We were also happy to donate a #LEGO prize to recognise curiosity and problem-solving among the students taking part. A big thank you to Luke Cooper and Synack Red Team member Jan Fisher with support from Stephanie Lynch-Ozanar, for bringing the stand to life. 👏 If even a small number of those students left considering a future in cyber, that is time well spent. 🚀 #JDUP #STEM #EthicalHacking

“There are a lot of benchmarks out there for testing AI right now, but the real world is more random and difficult than a lab. The only way to really evaluate these agents is against the breadth of knowledge of human experts.”🔥 In a new feature by Security Boulevard, our CTO & Co-Founder Mark Kuhr, Ph.D. discusses how AI is rewriting the rules of penetration testing: https://lnkd.in/gArtYrMG #agenticAI #pentesting #RSAC2026

The biggest risk is the one you can’t see.🔍 In this clip, Solutions Architect James Duggan breaks down the "Visibility Gap"—the space between known assets and shadow IT/unknown risks. If you can't identify an asset, you can't prioritize its criticality or test its defenses. Learn how to close this coverage gap in our latest research with Omdia, The 2026 State of Agentic AI in Pentesting. 👉 Download the full report here: https://hubs.ly/Q049nh110 #ShadowIT #CyberSecurity #AttackSurfaceManagement
