Runs automated vulnerability scans against infrastructure and applications with CVE correlation.
Overview
Vulnerability Scanner performs continuous automated security scanning across your entire application stack. It monitors for known CVEs, misconfigurations, exposed secrets, and security policy violations — alerting your team the moment a vulnerability appears.
This agent runs 24/7, scanning your dependencies, infrastructure configurations, and application code for known security issues. When new CVEs are published, it immediately checks your stack for exposure and alerts with specific remediation steps.
It integrates with your CI/CD pipeline to prevent vulnerable code from reaching production. Every pull request is scanned for new vulnerabilities, outdated dependencies, and security anti-patterns before merge.

Process
Vulnerability Scanner follows a systematic process to deliver consistent, high-quality results.
Monitors all npm, pip, and system packages against CVE databases. Alerts on newly disclosed vulnerabilities affecting your dependencies.
Checks security headers, CORS policies, CSP directives, SSL/TLS configuration, and cloud IAM settings against security baselines.
Scans code, configs, and environment files for exposed API keys, credentials, tokens, and other sensitive data.
Runs scheduled scans and triggers on-demand scans for every deployment. Tracks vulnerability lifecycle from detection to remediation.
Use Cases
Block deployments that introduce high-severity vulnerabilities. Every PR is scanned before merge, every build is validated before deploy.
Keep your dependencies secure with automated CVE monitoring, upgrade recommendations, and compatibility testing for security patches.
Maintain continuous compliance with security standards (SOC 2, PCI-DSS) through automated policy checks and evidence generation.
