Never miss a critical exposure in your AWS environment
Identify misconfigurations, open ports and services, and critical vulnerabilities across your AWS environment. Proactively scan for emerging threats as they’re disclosed, and automatically assess newly discovered assets the moment they appear - so nothing gets missed.
AWS vulnerability management that keeps up with your cloud
Stay in sync with your changing AWS environment using Cloud Sync. Automatically discover and sync new IPs and hostnames as they appear. Define exactly which assets to scan to stay focused and in control of your cloud security spend. DevOps and Security teams get real-time visibility into exposed cloud assets - so they can act fast when it counts.
Make AWS security scanning simple for DevOps and IT
Built with simplicity in mind, Intruder helps DevOps and IT teams spot and resolve issues, fast. Integrating directly into your tech stack, Intruder is the easiest tool to buy, set up and use - start your first scan in under five mins.
Reduce risk with web app and API vulnerability scanning in AWS
Scan your AWS-hosted web apps and APIs with both authenticated and unauthenticated methods to uncover critical vulnerabilities - from OWASP Top 10 risks to unknown flaws and exploitable weaknesses. Integrate Intruder into your CI/CD pipeline to catch issues earlier in the development cycle and reduce time to fix.
Prioritize real AWS risks with actionable insights
Intruder cuts through the noise by using exploit likelihood data to highlight the issues that pose the greatest risk to your AWS environment. Generate audit-ready reports to demonstrate your cloud security posture to stakeholders. With clear, actionable remediation guidance, resolving security issues has never been easier.
You can connect your Intruder account in two ways: by creating an IAM role for Intruder (AWS AssumeRole functionality), or by adding a new IAM user and entering the access keys. For the full steps, click here.
Cloud Sync automatically adds any new external IP addresses or hostnames in cloud accounts as Intruder targets – so you don't have to. You can also enable these new targets to be scanned automatically as soon as they are added.
Intruder uses industry-leading scanning engines, each running thousands of thorough security checks. Read more about it in our help article.
Firstly, if the vulnerability scanner that you’re considering offers a free trial, we recommend scanning a known vulnerable system (e.g. testphp.vulnweb.com) to see the spectrum of results that the scanner comes back with and quality of the checks. Of course, there are other important areas to consider when choosing the right scanner for AWS, such as the scanner’s reporting capabilities and features.
