# Pynt on CI/CD

{% hint style="success" %}
🚀 **At a Glance**: Pynt is a breakthrough technology that performs **contextual, automated, and continuous PenTesting** as part of your CI/CD pipeline. By seamlessly integrating with your workflow, Pynt ensures real-time security testing for your APIs as they evolve.
{% endhint %}

Pynt integrates seamlessly into **any CI/CD pipeline**, enabling automated API security testing at every stage of the development process. Pynt supports [**Jenkins**](/documentation/security-testing-integrations/pynt-on-ci-cd/pynt-for-jenkins.md), [**GitLab**](/documentation/security-testing-integrations/pynt-on-ci-cd/pynt-for-gitlab.md), [**GitHub Actions**](/documentation/security-testing-integrations/pynt-on-ci-cd/pynt-for-github-actions.md), and [**AzureDevOps**](/documentation/security-testing-integrations/pynt-on-ci-cd/pynt-for-azure-devops-pipelines.md) as verified examples but is agnostic to the CI/CD tool being used.

### Benefits of CI/CD Integration

#### Automated Security Scans

With Pynt, you can run automated security scans triggered by various actions:

* **Following API changes**
* **Following a code change that affects API calls**
* **Following a functional test change**

Pynt dynamically learns your application behavior, expanding security tests as your functional tests grow, with no need for manual adjustments.

***

#### DevSecOps Integration

Pynt allows **DevSecOps** teams to implement automated PenTests within the CI/CD pipeline in just a few clicks. Once configured, Pynt detects and addresses vulnerabilities in real-time, offering flexible options to either **stop the build** or **reflect results**.

***

### Continuous PenTesting

Pynt provides **continuous PenTesting**, reducing the risk of deploying insecure code by expanding the test suite automatically as your functional tests evolve.
