Synack is a security company revolutionizing how enterprises view cybersecurity: through a hacker’s eyes. Synack’s private, managed hacker-powered security solution arms clients with hundreds of the world's most skilled, highly vetted ethical hackers who provide a truly adversarial perspective to clients’ IT environments.

How Continuous Security Testing Better Supports Rapid Software Development and Increasingly Agile Systems

Penetration testing is the traditional method used for uncovering exploitable vulnerabilities but falls progressively short in protecting the business due to its inability to emulate adversarial hacker behavior and today’s sophisticated cyber-attacks. Furthermore, periodic pen tests typically need to be scheduled at least several months in advance and thereby do not align with the short term urgency and nature of the continuous deployment required by DevOps SDLC. Hence, applications and updates go live without being thoroughly tested, resulting in the risk that at any moment in time serious vulnerabilities may be introduced into live systems and are not detected in a timely manner.

Join speakers Mohamed Abotaleb and Ron Peeters and learn about:

     - The security issues and challenges of a rapid software development and deployment environment with agile systems

     - A new continuous security testing model that better supports DevOps SDLC and Cloud environment 

     - How this testing model combines automation technology with continuous or on-demand manual security testing 

     - A recent case study from Telefonica that demonstrates the benefits and capabilities of such continuous testing security model

How Continuous Security Testing Better Supports Rapid Software Development

Join Synack on a journey as we provide an overview of different crowdsourced security testing models such as Crowdsourced Penetration Testing, Bug Bounty, and Vulnerability Disclosure Policies. We will cover insights discussed in our recently published white paper, Crowdsourced Security White Paper: Adoption and Market Trends in the U.S. Government, and highlight the key differentiators in crowdsourced security models including vetting, technology, practical applications, and pricing. Come away with an understanding of what model(s) are right for your agency!

Understanding Crowdsourced Security Models for Government

The Synack Red Team (SRT) gives the most talented security researchers across the globe a platform to do what they love and get paid for it. A private network of highly-curated and vetted security researchers, the SRT is challenged every day to deliver exploitation discovery and management for some of the biggest brands in the world. On the Synack platform, researchers have access to the industry’s first ever hacker toolkit built at enterprise scale, to make them more efficient and effective at uncovering critical vulnerabilities that matter.

These ethical hackers are increasingly being recognised as an important way for businesses to unearth security weaknesses before they can be exploited by online criminals. 

In this Webinar, Synack Red Team member, Callum Carney joins Synack’s Justin Shaw Gray for an open conversation on what a day in the life of an ethical hacker is all about. He’ll discuss:

     - How he started his ethical hacker journey
     - Why he chose Synack 
     - How it’s changed in the 2 years he’s been working with us
     - What information is critical to successful testing
     - Why you should be using ethical hackers
     - Processes used when a new target comes online. 
     - And much much more


Callum started his ethical hacking journey by supporting organisations such as Google, Spotify and Local UK Businesses to secure their systems. In January 2017, after noticing all of the great comments regarding the Synack platform (fast payouts, fast response times, etc), he applied for the Synack Red Team and was accepted. During his time with Synack he has worked to secure a multitude of systems including government and Fortune 500 enterprise systems. In addition to his work with Synack Callum is studying for an Undergraduate Masters Degree in Computer Science and working as a Software Tester/Developer for the UKs largest supplier of Functional Skills and GCSE assessments.

Great Security Teams have certain best practices in common.  And practices to avoid.  Some of these are technical best practices; some are organizational.  Each one helps the journey from reactive to proactive security as organizations and security needs scale. 

Join Synack's Nick Harrahill as he shares his experience working with hundreds of security teams on what the best security teams do...and do not.

Scaling Success: 9 Things Great Security Teams Do (and 5 They Don't)

Security Testing focuses on closing vulnerabilities that are found via scanning, penetration testing, responsible disclosure or other means. But what's the full life of that vulnerability? Vulnerabilities are born, live, get found (if you're lucky), and at some point, end.  

In this session, we'll dig deeper into the lifecycle of a security vulnerability, to get better insights into how to avoid them, how to find them, and how to get rid of each one once and for all.

Ramping Remediation: Journey of a Crowdsourced Vulnerability

Augmented Intelligence: How Technology Augments Hackers to Hunt for Vulnerabilities Efficiently

AI and ML will never replace humans in security... but using it in the right way can augment the way humans hunt for vulnerabilites. Crowdsourced security testing is now being taken to another level with augmented intelligence. 

Learn from Synack's Directors of Engineering on how they are building technology to make security testing much more efficient and how their optimized approach of algorithmic scanning and human testing allows security teams to gain a more robust security posture.

How Technology Augments Hackers to Hunt for Vulnerabilities Efficiently

Whether you are a security, IT, or audit executive, compliance can be difficult to scale with growing assets, IPs, and attack surfaces. Increaasingly, compliance and security testing are being integrated into the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) to help avoid last minute panic during deployment. 

Synack conducted a survey of 311 organizations to better understand how they make their compliance and security testing programs more efficient and effective. 

Some of the question we answer include:
- Who should oversee compliance and security testing?
- Which compliance and best practice standards are top of mind?
- Which methods should be employed to perform security testing for compliance purposes?
- How many hours are performed on average per a test?

We hope you come away with a stronger vision for integrating your security testing, compliance and SDLC.

Best Practices for Compliance and Security Testing at Scale

Managing the ever-expanding threat landscape, especially given how busy security teams already are, is becoming increasingly difficult. Security teams need integrated technology and tools to help them work smarter, not harder, when it comes to security.
Nathan Jones, Director, Operations-Customer Success has deployed hundreds of security tests for customers across all industries. Nathan has analyzed and broken down best practices he has seen the most secure companies utilize to get the most value from their security testing.
During this webinar you will learn:
-Best practices for starting a crowdsourced security test
-What to expect from a crowdsourced security test in your day to day
-Integrating crowdsourced security data into your workflow

Keeping Pace with Process: Best Practices for Managing Security at Scale

In today's rapidly evolving threat landscape and hyper-connected infrastructure, security testing must keep up. To scale a security test, you need a crowd, but to maintain control over your enterprise-wide testing, you need technology and processes.

 In this webinar we will discuss:

- How to manage and prioritize risk within your portfolio, how to prioritize across your apps and scale your security testing while mitigating risk
- What technical controls you should look for in every security test
- How to leverage your security testing to minimize security risk

Scaling Down Risk: Managing Your Security Portfolio

With more than 3,000 security vendors operating today, choosing the right vendor for your organization can be time-consuming, and differentiating amongst the thousands of vendors can feel impossible. 

During this webinar, we will break down how to select security testing vendors and find efficiencies among them, including: 
- The different types of security testing, their capabilities, and their pros and cons 
- The questions to ask in your RFPs
- How to measure performance

Built to Scale: How to Select Security Vendors That Will Scale With You

Fines for GDPR breaches are here and the impact is huge. But these are just fines and not the actual cost of the breach.  Personal data, company reputation, financial loss, all are at risk. Yet the problem is not being fully addressed. According to the 2019 Digital Business Report by UK software and services firm Advanced, “Despite the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), only one third (34%) of respondents said regulatory change was triggering the purchase of new technology in their organization”. Less than 1/4 of UK firms priorities security when investing in new technology, despite the threat of cyber attacks and data protection regulations, surveys reveal. The big question now is… Will it happen to your company? 

In this webinar we will discuss

     - How likely your organization is to be affected by PII data leakage.
     - Synack’s innovative solution combining the best of artificial intelligence and crowdsourced human intelligence
     - How Synack can help protect you.
