Vulnerability Management Solutions

The Synack Platform offers vulnerability discovery and assessment performed by a diverse global team of researchers. Vulnerability findings are triaged and clearly presented with information about severity, instructions for replication and convenient patch verification. Unlike a vulnerability scanner that clogs your workflow, you’re able to operate with proof that your attack surface is hardened from potential adversaries.

Benefits

Identify, Assess and Remediate with Continuous Vulnerability Management

Find Exploitable Vulnerabilities

Unlike automated noisy vulnerability scanners,
Synack continuously evaluates and prioritizes the most critical and exploitable vulnerabilities so you don’t have to.

Actionable Metrics

See total amount of vulnerabilities found, get analysis on which are the most severe, review stats from the testing performed and receive patch efficacy data.

Integrations

Consolidate your vulnerability management process through your existing tools, such as ServiceNow and JIRA, through integrations.

Vulnerability Management with Patch Verification and Convenient Workflows

1

Real Time Vulnerability Analytics

Get real time analytics of all exploitable vulnerabilities that are found and verified in the Synack Platform plus an evaluation of your overall security posture over time.

2

On-demand Patch Verification

Request patch verification with the push of a button. Get remediation recommendations from security researchers who will retest and provide information on their methods and efficacy of the patch.

3

Vulnerability Assessment and Replication

Have open communication and comment with researchers directly though the platform for better understanding of how exploits can be replicated and status of the assessments.

4

Integration with Existing Tools

Seamlessly integrate vulnerability findings in your existing tools, such as ServiceNow, Jira and Azure DevOps, with the Synack API. You can see Synack vulnerability data in your preferred workflow.

FAQ
Vulnerability Management
Close
Why types of vulnerabilities does Synack test for/find?

Our researchers look for common and critical vulnerabilities like those in the OWASP Top 10, the OWASP Web and Mobile Security Testing Guides (WSTG, MSTG) and more. In addition to open vulnerability discovery (OVD), researchers can be activated through the Synack Platform to check for specific CVEs and run through lists of common vulnerabilities.

Vulnerabilities in the platform will have an associated CVSS score, instructions on how to replicate the finding and a writeup (with screenshots) from the researcher on how it was discovered.

Close
Is Synack a vulnerability scanner?

Vulnerability scanning is just one part of Synack’s strategic security testing platform. The scanner augments the human researchers of the Synack Red Team (SRT) and findings by both are triaged by an internal team called Vulnerability Operations. Together, the SRT and Vulnerability Operations help you find the vulnerabilities that matter and minimize noise and false positives.

Close
What do you do for vulnerability remediation and patching?

The Synack Platform only displays vulnerabilities as “exploitable” after they have been vetted by internal Synack teams. This ensures that you can focus on remediating high-priority vulnerabilities that have real business impact.

Once you remediate, you can issue a patch verification request through the platform, which will activate a researcher to test the patch and verify that the exploitation is no longer possible.

Close
Does Synack test for API Security Vulnerabilities?

Yes! Synack can tests APIs for the majority of the OWASP API Top 10 security flaws. These include Broken Object Level Authorization, Broken User Authentication, Excessive Data Exposure and more. Read about our API testing methodology here.

Close
Who pays the researchers for their vulnerability findings?

Synack handles researcher payments. Synack tests are sold to organizations with a flat-fee model; researchers will be paid based on their vulnerability findings, while the cost to you remains fixed.

Close
Can you help me get testing from a custom group of researchers?

In special circumstances, we can limit testing to members of the Synack Red Team who meet certain criteria, such as US-only researchers, Five Eyes only, etc.
