Automated scanning

Automated security scanning for web apps and APIs.

Passive scans on a schedule, with findings routed to where your team already works and a fix step for each one. Built for engineering teams, with or without a security team.

What's included

One scanner, one evidence pack.

Passive

Live-app scanning

Production-safe passive scans across TLS, headers, CORS, cookies, DNS, email auth and network exposure, 35+ checks on paid plans.
Remediation

Fix steps for your stack

Every finding comes with a remediation step written for your framework, so whoever picks it up knows what to change.
Continuous

Always-on coverage

Daily or weekly cadence across every domain you ship. Drift caught the day it happens.
Alerts

Routed to Slack & Teams

Critical findings from each scheduled scan land in your team channel. Score drops too.
Reports

Audit-ready PDFs

Export evidence that supports SOC 2, ISO 27001, PCI DSS and NIS2 audits.
Honest

Documented scope

Every check is documented. The scan engine builds on ZAP, we credit it and don't pretend otherwise.
Scan vs pentest

Where passive scanning hands over to a pentest.

Automated scanning tells you what your app exposes, every day, without touching production data. It won't tell you whether someone could get from that exposure to your data. For that, Barrion runs AI pentests. AI agents test your web app and APIs the way an attacker would and chain requests together, and each finding is checked against your live app before it's reported. Confirmed findings come with the request and response that prove them.

The pentest can run continuously, on a schedule you set. You can also start one from your CI/CD pipeline via the Barrion API, or on demand from the dashboard. See how AI pentesting works and what continuous pentesting means.

Why it works

The automation that actually saves time.

  • ✓No setup beyond entering a URL
  • ✓Less triage, findings are deduped and impact-weighted
  • ✓No manual report generation, exports update on every scan
  • ✓No agent to install on your servers, no source-code upload required
FAQ

Automated scanning, explained.

What does the automated scanning actually cover?
Passive checks against your live, deployed application: TLS, headers, CORS, cookies, DNS, email auth, network exposure and JavaScript library CVEs. The passive scan runs 35+ checks on paid plans (18 on the free plan). It runs on a schedule you pick, deduplicates against history so you see what changed rather than the same list again, and every finding carries a framework-specific remediation step.
Do I have to upload source code?
No. Scanning only needs a URL. Barrion never needs your repository or source code to run one.
Will this slow down my deploys?
No. Scans run out of band against a deployed environment rather than as a step in your pipeline, so nothing here can hold up a release. Nothing runs on your pull requests and nothing gates a merge.
Can I exclude paths or rules from scanning?
Yes. Scans support endpoint excludes if you want specific URLs kept out of scope, and rule-level overrides so you can mute a specific check globally or per domain. Overrides are versioned and visible in the audit log.
Is it safe to run against production?
Yes, that is the point. The checks are passive and read-only: no exploit payloads, no login attempts, no state-changing requests. Active testing that chains requests to confirm what's exploitable is the separate AI pentesting product, run against a scope you agree to up front.

A scan shows the surface. A pentest tests what gets in.

Passive scan

  • Reads what your app already exposes
  • Never logs in or submits a form
  • Cannot confirm what is exploitable

Active AI pentest

  • Tests your app the way an attacker would
  • Chains requests to confirm real exploits
  • Replays findings against your live app
  • Runs on a schedule or on demand, retests free
