Two years ago, we launched our first integration with Postman. We had a clear vision: make API security accessible, automatic, and seamless - right where R&D (developers/QA) already work. What started as a small experiment quickly grew into something much bigger. Today, tens of thousands of developers across 180+ countries use Pynt via Postman to catch vulnerabilities early in the SDLC, without leaving their workspace.
That traction told us something important: it’s not just about scanning earlier. It’s about scanning smarter, and in the right place, not just shifting left for the sake of it.
The Shift Left Dilemma
“Shift Left” was a promising idea: move security earlier in the development cycle. But our recent benchmark study, based on 250 security and engineering professionals, shows that while 47% of companies claim to have implemented Shift Left, many are stuck with either processes that don’t work or incomplete implementation.
Here’s what we found:
- False positives are the #1 blocker - they burn time and trust
- Tool integration is a nightmare - especially when trying to wedge security into developer workflows
- Developers are overwhelmed - not just by false alerts, but by the sheer volume of findings
(You can read the full report here - or just know this: doing security early only works if it actually fits into how people build software.)
Why QA is the Sweet Spot
If there’s one insight that’s guided our product roadmap, it’s this: QA sits at the intersection of coverage, context, and control.
Unlike developers, QA professionals are already responsible for testing behavior and edge cases. They understand workflows. They know when something "looks wrong." And most importantly - they’re not racing a sprint deadline.
Security testing in QA environments catches issues before production without introducing friction or false urgency. That’s why so many of our users come from testing teams. And it’s why we’ve doubled down on making their experience even better.
Introducing Our New + Native Postman Integration
We’re thrilled to announce our native integration with Postman, now available in the Postman Integrations Hub.
Here’s how it works: No setup or switching tabs. Just open your collection, hit run, and get an instant security assessment:
Pynt detects business logic vulnerabilities that traditional tools miss: using your own test data as context. It’s designed to fit directly into your existing Postman workflows, and without any learning curve it really works flawlessly and removes friction.
The Bottom Line: Make Security a Fit, Not a Fight
If Shift Left is going to work, it has to work for the people doing the work. For us, that means making security part of QA, not part of the problem. Our Postman integration is a major step in that direction.
