Gotta catch ‘em all

With Intruder's Bug Hunting Service, our experienced penetration testers check your systems for critical vulnerabilities, including ones that are not detectable by automated scanners.

How often should you scan?

The time between a vulnerability being discovered and hackers exploiting it is narrower than ever – just 12 days. We explain why continuous vulnerability scanning has become essential and how you can best implement it.

What do you mean by scanning your website, internally?
faq arrow

Your internal systems can be just as enticing to hackers as your external network so it’s important to test your website for vulnerabilities there too.

When we talk about scanning the website internally, we’re actually talking about scanning the web server that the website is hosted on. Web servers are internet-facing, but any sensitive information connected to them (such as databases) will sit behind a firewall, to prevent them from being reached by unauthorized individuals.

If ‘stuff’ can’t be reached externally, then remote checks won’t work and so you’d need to run local checks. At Intruder, all local/internal checks are performed via an agent which you’d install on the server.  

Internal vulnerability scanning also hunts through your website for missing patches and detects insecure versions of many thousands of software components and frameworks, including operating systems and network devices. Find out more about internal vulnerability scanning.
