A website vulnerability scanner is an automated software designed to search for security vulnerabilities in websites or web applications. New vulnerabilities are constantly being discovered, and many web apps add new features that can introduce vulnerabilities on a regular basis. It’s important to do scans on a regular, continual basis so that you can fix vulnerabilities before hackers take advantage of them.
Automated monthly or quarterly scans
OWASP Top 10 vulnerability reports
PCI DSS scan requirements checklist
Lightning or Normal level scans
Evidence-based reporting
Recommendations for how to fix vulnerabilities
Simply enter the URL of your website or app and add a name. You’ll have to confirm you have permission to scan the application.
Once you’ve confirmed your URL, schedule your scan. You can choose your start date and if you want to scan every month or once a quarter. There are also two scan levels: lightning or normal. Lightning scans are quick and minimal, while normal scans require more time and are more in-depth.
Once your scan is complete, you’ll receive an email notification. Login to Cyber Safety to download your scan report. You can select either an OWASP Top 10 or a PCI report depending on your needs. The PCI report contains a checklist of compliance requirements you must meet if you have a public-facing web app and are processing, storing, or transmitting payment card information.
Send your report to whichever internal or external team is responsible for your website or web app. It contains all the details they need to verify the vulnerabilities exist, and has recommendations for fixing them.
