2017: BlackBox Scanner free online service beta launch
On May 23, 2017, Positive Technologies announced the launch of a public beta testing of a free online service for detecting vulnerabilities in BlackBox Scanner web applications.
Users can start verification without registering and confirming ownership of the site. The service is based on Positive Technologies enterprise-level application security technologies. You can also check the sites operating on the local network.
An open source agent allows to prevent anonymous exploitation of the service and maintain ease of use, which makes it possible not to confirm the fact of ownership of the site, ensuring that all scan requests are tunneled through the user's PC to the scanned site. Another way to protect PT BlackBox Scanner from anonymous use is to confirm ownership by placing special code in the root directory of the site.
The service is focused on those interested in protecting web applications: from site owners to companies and experts testing the security of their clients' sites.
 | Vulnerabilities in web applications today are one of the most common compromise vectors. Large and small businesses are actively translating their activities into a digital plane, so the insecurity of web applications is fraught with legal and economic risks, disclosure of user personal data and fraud. We want to bring security to the forefront, empower people to find vulnerabilities in their infrastructure themselves and get ahead of bad actors. We also believe that our knowledge and expertise will help make the virtual world safer, and that's why our PT BlackBox Scanner is free. Maxim Filippov, Business Development Director of Positive Technologies in Russia |  |
