Security scan use cases

Choose the best entry point for your security question.

Some teams need a security scan before launch. Others need a lower-cost alternative to a full pentest, API validation before enterprise review, or a faster way to reason about auth and access-control risk. This hub helps you choose the right page to start with.

Start Scan View Sample Report

Before launch

For teams that want a fast first-pass check before public release, beta rollout, or a major product push.

Run a security scan before launch

Use a pre-launch first-pass scan to reduce the chance of shipping obvious auth, access-control, injection, or API exposure issues.

SQL injection scan

Validate one of the clearest high-severity risk classes before release pressure hides it.

OAuth misconfiguration scan

Check auth flow assumptions before launch turns implementation shortcuts into account risk.

Before customer or enterprise review

For teams heading into diligence, security questionnaires, procurement review, or enterprise sales conversations.

Security check before enterprise customer review

Reduce avoidable surprises before a buyer defines the urgency for you.

API security scan for startups

Validate the API surface that buyers and integrators are most likely to scrutinize.

Broken access control testing

Focus on the category that frequently creates direct trust and data boundary failures.

When auth and authorization feel risky

For teams that already suspect problems around login, sessions, roles, tenant boundaries, or direct object access.

IDOR scanner

Understand object-level authorization risk and how it can expose customer data fast.

Broken access control testing

Use a practical first pass to reduce uncertainty around authorization weaknesses.

OAuth misconfiguration scan

Review auth flow security before small missteps create larger account or trust issues.

When budget is the blocker

For teams that know they need validation but are not ready for a larger manual security engagement yet.

Affordable pentest alternative

Start with a lower-cost first move instead of waiting until security becomes urgent.

Automated pentest vs manual pentest

Choose the right depth and budget level without pretending every option solves the same problem.

Sample report

See the level of detail available before deciding whether the workflow fits your team.

When trust and readiness matter

For teams preparing for compliance, broader trust work, or internal security readiness efforts.

FAQ

Is BreachFound best for launch, diligence, or ongoing monitoring?

It is strongest as a first-pass validation layer before launch, before enterprise review, or before deciding whether to buy a larger manual security engagement.

Should teams start from a use-case page or from methodology?

Buyers with a concrete problem usually start from a use-case page. Teams comparing options or evaluating fit may start from methodology or what-we-test.

What if more than one use case applies?

That is common. Use this hub to choose the nearest entry point, then move across linked pages as you narrow the decision.

Use the hub to move from concern to action fast.

The point is not to read every page. The point is to find the shortest path to the exact problem you need to validate right now.
