Scan what you serve
API Scanning
Eliminate the noise and manual work from traditional API scanning. Get back time to focus on what's truly important.

Setup without a headache

Step 1
Decide what to scan
Simply create a new API Scan Profile and add your OpenAPI spec file.

Step 2
Customize your scans
Configure any authentication needed, set a scan schedule, and setup and test operations.

From setting up a scan profile, to configuring the settings based on your OpenAPI spec file, and reviewing the findings.
Dynamic API scanning at scale, without the noise

Dynamic on a new level
Instead of a fixed set of conditions for scans, our engine randomizes and rotates payloads with every scan. Giving you a more accurate, ongoing assessment even against more static targets.
Fast testing on a massive scale
We built out testing for scale. For prompt injection, we can generate a staggering number of payload permutations, exceeding 922 quintillion in theory. For command injections, we leverage a comprehensive library of over 330k payloads.

Unified API visibility
Get a unified inventory with the context to prioritize scanning across your entire API attack surface, not just the parts you already know about.
Proprietary, research-led testing
Our proprietary scanning engines deliver high-accuracy, actionable findings. The focus is on exploitability, reducing the time you waste on triaging false positives from outdated checks.

Go beyond the static checklist
Securing APIs can be anything but straightforward. For security to be effective, it also needs to be manageable. That is why Detectify's API Scanner is easy to set up. Gives actionable findings. Without skimping on quality.

Map your entire attack surface
Instantly discover and inventory every internet-facing asset, including shadow APIs. We provide a complete and continuously updated map of your external footprint, ensuring no forgotten server or undocumented API endpoint goes unmonitored.

Test what actually matters
Don't waste time on noise. Our proprietary, research-led scanners focus on exploitability with 100% payload-based testing. Delivering high-fidelity findings that your developers will trust and act on. We find real-world vulnerabilities like the OWASP Top 10, not a flood of false positives.

Eliminate tedious manual work
Stop spending more time configuring your scanner than analyzing results. Simply connect your DNS and our platform automates the rest, from asset discovery and classification to running scans and delivering findings directly into developer workflows.

Secure your APIs from modern threats
Go beyond traditional scanners that struggle to find modern API flaws. Our dynamic engine is purpose-built to test for the API OWASP Top 10, including critical logic-based vulnerabilities like BOLA and Prompt Injection, giving you confidence in your API security.

Confidently pass audits and M&A
Quickly provide evidence of your security posture to leadership, auditors, or during an M&A. Get a complete risk assessment of a newly acquired company in days and generate the data you need to prove continuous, comprehensive security testing.
