Detectify

Detectify automates external attack surface management and web application scanning.

What is Detectify?

Detectify is a modern application security and attack surface management platform designed to help organizations identify vulnerabilities in their web applications, APIs, and external assets.

Built by ethical hackers, Detectify focuses on simulating real-world attacks to uncover security weaknesses before hackers exploit them. It combines automated scanning, continuous monitoring, and crowdsourced security research to deliver accurate and actionable results.

1. Attack Surface Monitoring

Automatically discovers domains, subdomains, APIs, and unknown assets

Continuously monitors for vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, and exposures

Detects shadow IT and forgotten endpoints

➡️ This ensures full visibility of your external attack surface.

2. Application Security Scanning (DAST)

Performs deep testing of web applications

Identifies vulnerabilities like OWASP Top 10 issues

Uses payload-based testing for realistic attack simulation

➡️ Helps find business-critical vulnerabilities faster.

3. Advanced Crawling Technology

Maps entire websites automatically

Supports JavaScript-heavy and single-page applications

Handles large-scale applications efficiently

➡️ Ensures no hidden pages or endpoints are missed.

4. Smart Fuzzing Engine

• Injects unexpected or random inputs to uncover bugs
• Discovers complex and previously unknown vulnerabilities
• Mimics real hacker behavior

➡️ Goes beyond traditional static testing methods.

5. Authenticated Scanning (Behind Login)

• Tests protected areas of applications
• Supports login recording, cookies, and authentication methods

➡️ Finds vulnerabilities that only appear for logged-in users.

6. Technology Fingerprinting

• Identifies CMS, frameworks, and tech stack
• Customizes scans based on detected technologies

➡️ Improves scan accuracy and reduces false positives.

7. Continuous Vulnerability Monitoring

• Detects new threats and zero-day vulnerabilities
• Runs automated checks across all assets

➡️ Keeps security up to date in real time.

8. Integrations and Automation

• Integrates with tools like Slack, Jira, and Splunk
• API for automation and scan control
• Exportable reports (PDF, JSON, XML)

➡️ Fits easily into DevOps and security workflows.
