Synack’s proprietary AI-powered penetration testing platform for continuous security validation launches a new experience with the new reporting feature on its platform. The update gives security teams and executives a faster, clearer path to move from verified findings to action.
The update features an AI-generated executive summary that summarizes key findings so CISOs and board members can quickly understand exploitable risks and recommended actions. A real-time preview allows teams to see how a report will look as they create it, making it easy to review before sharing. Additionally, finished reports can be saved as templates, shared via a viewing link in the portal, or exported to PDF for distribution outside the platform.
Accurate asset-focused reporting
One of the core elements of this update is asset-level reporting, which allows you to generate documents focused on a specific asset or a subset of assets within a project, rather than being limited to the overall project level. In this way, teams can adapt reports to different needs and recipients, providing more precise information about each environment.
The platform also allows you to generate reports for evaluations in which no findings have been detected. Added to this are options to filter reports by a custom time interval, a specific test, the severity or the status of the findings. Users can also add free text to contextualize the results and make each report reflect the story behind the data.
“Security teams need detailed reports that tell them what to do next,” said Mark Kuhr, co-founder and CTO of Synack. «Sara AI Pentesting and the Synack Red Team are responsible for detecting and validating exploitable risks. This update to the Synack platform ensures that that work is captured in a report that a security manager can share with the board and that an engineer can act on that same day.”
“These new capabilities provide our customers with management-ready reports that help turn security data into business decisions,” said Angela Heindl-Schober, Marketing Director at Synack. “Testing brings clarity, and Synack is building that clarity directly into the platform.”
Combination of AI and human talent
Synack has been developing a model that combines AI and human work for continuous security validation for 13 years, uniting Sara AI Pentesting’s ability to discover and test vulnerabilities at machine speed with the Synack Red Team’s validation of real-world exploitability and criteria. The new reporting experience extends this model beyond discovery, giving organizations a consistent way to communicate verified risks to security, engineering, and management teams.

With this update, reports begin to play a more relevant role within the security validation process, connecting test results with subsequent decisions and actions. The company thus seeks that the reports are not only a record of the identified vulnerabilities, but rather a tool to facilitate their understanding, prioritization and correction.
