"API security testing for lean AppSec teams"
What do you like best about Pynt - API Security Testing?

Pynt focuses on testing apps for issues before production, in the most accurate manner. We found traditional DAST solutions to be inaccurate and slow, but most importantly, not focused on the API layer, producing a lot of false positives, slowing down our CI/CD pipeline. Pynt cuts the time spent on API issues by 90% and dramatically improves the process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Pynt - API Security Testing?

Nothing major. It’s a new app so they can improve some UI stuff, but it doesn’t hurt usability. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Quick way to track real API vulnerabilities"
What do you like best about Pynt - API Security Testing?

It integrates easily to CI/CD so you can forget about it. It also has tools to differentiate between vulnerabilities (OWASP for example), so you don’t need to prioritize really. In general that results are far more concise and accurate so we don’t need to prioritize, and just get the real verified issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Pynt - API Security Testing?

Nothing really. It makes my life easier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Quick and effective solution for API Security testing"
What do you like best about Pynt - API Security Testing?

We heavily use APIs, and I belive it must be part of the Appsec strategy. Having used other methods in the past, I think Pynt is a game changer in the secuirty api landscape. Before it took a lot of manual work, yielding incomplete results. Pynt is integrated with our Postman environment, automatically alerts on verified vulnerabilities, with nearly zero false positives. Pynt’s technology is the most trustworthy in today's market, so I’m confident that what Pynt tracks must be remediated. The app is easy to use, integration and installation took less than a week and it works like a charm. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Pynt - API Security Testing?

Nothing that I encountered so far while using Pynt. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Pynt - API Security Testing?

Pynt found the system that best solves the API security gap. By implementing it on the testing side, our QA can mitigate app security issues before they get into production.

It’s efficient, easy, and helps us level up our QA and dev teams. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Pynt - API Security Testing?

Actually, nothing special I didn’t like. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Automated API security testing, 10x faster"
What do you like best about Pynt - API Security Testing?

Pynt helps us track API issues fast and efficiently. It integrates easily to CI/CD and into our testing processes, therefore issues don’t make it to production and dramatically reduce the risk. It helps us find OWASP top 10 API risks and now also LLM risks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Pynt - API Security Testing?

I would like them to Improve LLM risks.. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
