Continuous Penetration Testing
for Public Sector Organizations

The push to migrate to the cloud is accelerating quickly, putting public sector security teams under intense pressure. Understanding an organization’s most critical vulnerabilities is necessary to prioritize and mitigate cyber risks but difficult to do with only automated systems or point-in-time testing. Synack finds exploitable vulnerabilities faster than traditional pentesting with our community of ethical researchers paired with smart technology. Synack empowers risk managers and cybersecurity teams to fortify the attack surface and achieve compliance for dedicated application security testing, enabling teams to pentest better for web and mobile applications, networks, APIs and cloud assets.

Utilizing the same, point-in-time pentest year after year is no longer effective for public sector organizations. Government agencies are adopting modern, on-demand pentesting solutions with ethical researchers, combining human intelligence with sophisticated technology tools.

With mandates moving government and higher education to a Zero Trust Model, where no user or system is automatically trusted, federal agencies are increasingly looking to dedicated application security testing to achieve ongoing compliance requirements.

Continuous penetration testing is a vital offensive security practice for U.S. federal agencies to reduce vulnerabilities and cyber risk. FedRAMP empowers agencies seeking compliance with FISMA to procure SaaS-based cybersecurity tools more rapidly, increasing data security.
