Automated Penetration Testing — Platform Features

A complete walkthrough of PenScan — from adding your first website to sharing a verified security certificate with your customers.

Scanning Vulnerability report Asset discovery Trust certificates Team access

Seven security tools running at once

Most businesses would need to hire a security team to run these checks. PenScan runs them all automatically — checking for the most common ways hackers break into websites — and combines everything into one clear report.

Checks for SQL injection, XSS & 200+ attack types
These are the most common ways hackers steal data. PenScan tests every input on your site automatically.
Checks your SSL certificate & encryption settings
Weak encryption is like leaving your front door unlocked. We flag it before anyone exploits it.
One clean report — no tool-switching required
All findings from all seven tools are merged and de-duplicated. You see one clear list, not seven separate outputs.

A clear list of what to fix, ranked by risk

Every issue we find is sorted from most dangerous to least. You won't need a security expert to interpret the results — each finding tells you what's wrong and why it matters in plain language.

Critical, High, Medium, Low — all clearly labelled
You always know what needs fixing today vs. what can wait until the next sprint.
Plain-English explanation for every issue
No security jargon. Each finding explains what it is, why it's a problem, and how to fix it.
Mark as fixed and verify with a follow-up scan
Track your progress. Mark fixes as complete and re-scan to confirm they're resolved.

We find the parts of your site you forgot about

Old test environments, forgotten subdomains, internal tools accidentally left exposed — hackers actively hunt for these. PenScan maps everything connected to your domain automatically, the moment you add it.

Automatic — no setup, no configuration
Add your domain and PenScan instantly starts finding connected sites. No credits used, no manual work needed.
High-risk assets flagged immediately
If a discovered subdomain looks exposed or misconfigured, it's flagged so you can prioritise it straight away.
No blind spots — your full attack surface, covered
Most security checks only cover what you manually add. PenScan finds everything, so nothing slips through.

Show customers you've been security tested

After a scan, you get a verifiable security certificate and a badge you can add to your website with one line of HTML. It's proof — not just a claim — that your site has been professionally tested.

Anyone can verify your certificate is genuine
Each certificate has a unique ID. Customers, investors, and partners can check it's real with one click.
Live badge — always shows your latest status
The widget on your site updates automatically after every scan. No manual updates needed.
Win more deals by showing security proof
Enterprise buyers always ask about security. A verified certificate gives you a credible, verifiable answer.

Invite your team — everyone sees what they need to

Add your developers, managers, or external auditors and control exactly what each person can see and do. Your data is always completely private to your organisation.

Owner, Analyst, or Viewer — three clear roles
Owners run scans. Analysts review findings. Viewers read reports. Simple, granular control.
Your data stays private — always
Each organisation's data is completely separate. Your scan results are never visible to other PenScan users.
Full audit trail for compliance
Every action is logged. Perfect for SOC 2, ISO 27001, and any team that needs to show evidence of security testing.

Security testing that closes vulnerabilities — and satisfies auditors.

From SOC 2 to ISO 27001, compliance frameworks demand documented proof of regular penetration testing. PenScan delivers both: real vulnerability findings and audit-ready reports in a single workflow.

Audit-ready evidence for SOC 2 and ISO 27001
SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 both require documented evidence of regular penetration testing. PenScan generates compliance-ready PDF reports complete with scope, methodology, findings, and remediation steps — exactly what auditors ask for.
Turn every scan into audit evidence
Expose the attack surface you didn't know you had
Old subdomains, staging environments, forgotten endpoints — attackers enumerate these before you do. PenScan automatically discovers every asset connected to your domain before the scan begins, so nothing gets missed.
No blind spots, no forgotten corners
Authorised scanning — every time
PenScan confirms domain ownership via DNS verification before any scan runs. You stay legally protected, and no third-party domain can be targeted without proven consent. Every scan is authorised by design.
Legally sound and ethically enforced
Critical issues first — not the noisiest
Every finding is scored by actual severity. Your team sees what matters most at the top, assigns issues for remediation, tracks progress, and confirms fixes — all from one live dashboard. No spreadsheets. No guesswork.
Never lose a critical finding in the noise
Turn a passing scan into a trust signal
Once your site passes a scan, display a verified security badge to customers, prospects, and partners. A concrete signal that your security posture has been independently tested — not just assumed.
Security posture you can show, not just claim
One platform, the right access for every role
Invite your engineering team, security lead, and compliance officers — each with the exact permissions their role requires. All scan data stays isolated within your organisation. No cross-tenant visibility, ever.
Collaborate securely across your whole team

Stop hoping you're secure.
Know that you are.

Add your domain, verify ownership with a DNS record, and run your first full security assessment. No consultants, no contracts, no infrastructure to manage.
