Security Scanner

Automated security scanning and vulnerability detection for web applications, APIs, and infrastructure. Use when you need to scan targets for vulnerabilities, check SSL certificates, find open ports, detect misconfigurations, or perform security audits. Integrates with nmap, nuclei, and other security tools.

Automated security scanning toolkit for penetration testing and vulnerability assessment.

Quick Start

Port Scan

nmap -sV -sC -oN scan.txt TARGET

Vulnerability Scan

nuclei -u TARGET -o results.txt

Scan Types

1. Quick Recon

Fast initial scan for live hosts and open ports:

nmap -sn -T4 SUBNET  # Host discovery
nmap -F TARGET       # Fast port scan (top 100)

2. Full Port Scan

Comprehensive port and service detection:

nmap -p- -sV -sC -A TARGET -oN full_scan.txt

3. Web Application Scan

nuclei -u https://TARGET -t cves/ -t vulnerabilities/ -o web_vulns.txt
nikto -h TARGET -o nikto_report.txt

4. SSL/TLS Analysis

sslscan TARGET
testssl.sh TARGET
