One scan. Eight layers.
0+ checks.
WebHound runs eight parallel security engines against every public surface of your website. Here's exactly what each layer checks, and why it matters.
What each engine checks
All eight engines run in parallel on every scan. No black boxes — here's the full breakdown.
Reconnaissance
Passive discovery of every public asset — subdomains, open ports, linked pages, and exposed paths — without touching anything that should be private.
DNS & Infrastructure
DNS record auditing, hosting chain analysis, SPF/DKIM/DMARC validation, and DNSSEC presence to prevent email spoofing and subdomain takeover.
SSL / TLS Analysis
Certificate validity, cipher suite strength, protocol version support, and HSTS preload status — ensuring your encryption is both current and correctly configured.
Vulnerability Scanning
Cross-referenced against 18,400+ CVE signatures to detect known exploits in detected frameworks, libraries, and server software.
Web App Scanning
Dynamic OWASP Top 10 testing covering SQL injection, reflected XSS, CSRF, IDOR, and broken authentication patterns across all discovered endpoints.
Configuration Review
Security response headers, CORS policy, cookie flags, and server-level hardening — the misconfigurations that turn minor bugs into critical breaches.
Threat Intelligence
IP and domain reputation checked against global blocklists, PhishTank, and known breach datasets to surface infrastructure that has already been flagged.
Monitoring & Alerts
Continuous post-scan surveillance using WADE behavioral baselines. New scripts, domain additions, and structural DOM changes trigger instant alerts.
Scan Pipeline
From URL to action in minutes
Add your website
Enter your URL. No installation, no DNS changes, no server credentials. We only access what a browser would.
All eight engines run in parallel
WebHound fires all eight security layers simultaneously. A full scan completes in under 3 minutes for most sites.
Findings are grouped and ranked
Results are organized by engine category, severity, and fix priority — not a raw alert dump. Every finding links to the affected URL.
Act on plain-English guidance
Each finding includes what was detected, why it matters, the CVSS score where applicable, and a concrete remediation path.
WADE sets your behavioral baseline
After the first scan, WADE fingerprints your site. Subsequent scans compare against that baseline and alert you only when something meaningful changes.
Export and share
Download findings as SARIF (GitHub/CI), CSV (ticketing), or Markdown (wikis, PRs, client reports) — whatever format your workflow needs.
Passive scanning only — always safe to run
Every WebHound engine is read-only. We fetch content exactly as a browser would — no credentials, no injection attempts, no fuzzing, no load testing. Safe to run continuously against live production without risk of downtime or data modification.
