Summary

APIs have become crucial to application operations, but they also present significant security risks, as evidenced by a 681% increase in API attacks in 2021. Many of these are zero-day attacks, exploiting APIs that were not security-tested before release, largely due to a shortage of specialized security personnel and inadequate security knowledge among developers. Pynt aims to address this gap by offering an integration with Postman that enables dynamic API security testing, allowing vulnerabilities to be identified and addressed early in the development process. Pynt’s approach focuses on dynamic rather than static tests, using a machine learning-based analysis module to transform API traffic into security tests with a high rate of critical findings and minimal false positives. This integration allows developers to treat security vulnerabilities like any other bugs within their familiar Postman environment. Pynt can be integrated with Postman or the Newman CLI, enabling seamless incorporation of security tests into the CI/CD pipeline without requiring additional configuration.
