Synack announced Sara Pentest, a new agentic AI pentesting offering built on its Synack Autonomous Red Agent (Sara), designed to accelerate vulnerability discovery, validation, and remediation at scale by combining hundreds of specialized AI agents with human expertise. According to Synack’s press release, Sara’s agents perform reconnaissance (identifying open ports, services and endpoints), attack simulation through exploit-attempting agents, and verification via re-testing agents, while all exploitable findings are subject to Synack’s human triage team to minimize false positives.

This makes penetration testing faster, broader in coverage, and more cost-efficient—without compromising accuracy. By aligning testing with business risk, organizations can discover real, exploitable vulnerabilities across their attack surface and remediate them more rapidly. The system reflects Synack’s broader “Active Offense” vision, which integrates continuous attack surface discovery, agentic exploit validation, and human-led analysis in its PTaaS platform. With Sara Pentest, Synack says security teams gain the scale and speed of AI while keeping the quality assurance and insight that comes from human researchers.
