Main Features

Asset Discovery

Detectify's asset discovery capabilities are a standout feature, accurately identifying internet-facing assets, including subdomains and exposed files. User reviews and independent tests confirm its effectiveness in mapping an organization's digital footprint. This comprehensive visibility is crucial for understanding the attack surface and prioritizing security efforts, making it a valuable tool for organizations of all sizes.

Vulnerability Scanning

Using dynamic application security testing (DAST), Detectify goes beyond simple signature-based scans. It actively probes for vulnerabilities, simulating real-world attack scenarios to uncover weaknesses. This approach helps to identify vulnerabilities that might be missed by traditional scanners. With high accuracy, Detectify helps to reduce the risk of successful exploits.

Attack Surface Monitoring

Detectify continuously monitors domains, subdomains, IPs, ports, and technologies, providing real-time visibility into potential weaknesses. This continuous monitoring helps organizations stay ahead of emerging threats and proactively address misconfigurations and exposed assets. Continuous monitoring helps to reduce the window of opportunity for attackers and minimize potential damage.

Crowdsourced Security Research

Detectify leverages a network of ethical hackers to augment its vulnerability research. This crowdsourced approach allows Detectify to quickly identify and incorporate new and emerging vulnerabilities into its scanning capabilities, including zero-day exploits. This gives users an edge in staying ahead of the ever-evolving threat landscape, helping to protect their systems.

Automated Security Testing

Detectify's automation capabilities streamline the security testing process, making it easier for security teams to continuously monitor their attack surface. By automating scans and integrating with CI/CD pipelines, Detectify enables organizations to shift security left and identify vulnerabilities early in the development lifecycle. This reduces the cost and effort associated with remediation.
