GigaOm Radar for PTaaS: Synack Named a Leader
Stop Testing Corners. Start Testing Coverage.
GigaOm names Synack a Leader in PTaaS — combining AI scale with human expertise to uncover real, exploitable risk.
The way organizations pentest is broken.
Traditional engagements are point-in-time. Automated scanners are shallow. Internal teams are stretched. As attack surfaces grow, coverage gaps widen and adversaries know exactly where to look.
The market is shifting to continuous, hybrid security testing. GigaOm's 2025 PTaaS Radar evaluated 16 vendors to identify which platforms are built for this new reality.
That shift is also reflected in recent Synack research with Omdia: while pentesting is widely prioritized, large portions of the attack surface remain untested.
What GigaOm measured and where Synack stood out
GigaOm assessed vendors across core capabilities, emerging features, and business criteria. Synack earned strong recognition in areas that matter most to modern security teams.
What matters in modern pentesting
- Coverage that extends beyond point-in-time testing
- Integration with security and development workflows
- Flexibility to support different testing methodologies
- Validation and retesting of findings
- Scalability, operational efficiency, and procurement simplicity
Where Synack stood out
- Emerging Features: Recognized for integration with attack surface management and a private PTaaS platform purpose-built for sensitive and regulated environments.
- Cost & Scalability: Earned a perfect 5/5 score in both categories, reflecting Synack's ability to scale efficiently as organizations grow.
AI hunts breadth. Humans validate depth. Together, they close the gap.
Most platforms offer one or the other. Synack delivers both. With Sara running continuous, automated reconnaissance across the attack surface, the Synack Red Team validates real, exploitable risk.
The result: more coverage, less noise, and faster time to remediation.
