What security checks does Vulnify run for free?

Vulnify's free tools test for SSL/TLS misconfigurations, missing or weak security headers (CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options), exposed sensitive paths, XSS and SQL injection indicators, cookie security posture, CORS misconfiguration, and technology disclosure. No account or signup is required to run quick diagnostics.

Do I need to create an account to use Vulnify?

No. Public security tools — CSP checker, SSL grader, headers analyzer, DNS checker, and payload libraries — run without an account. The website vulnerability scanner page is a guide. A full OWASP scan needs Get Started, email verification, and starter credits.

How does Vulnify compare to paid scanners like Acunetix?

Public tools cover SSL grading, security headers, and related checks at no cost with no account. A full OWASP-aligned scan needs a free verified account with starter credits. Paid scanners such as Acunetix offer deeper authenticated crawling, but Vulnify lets you run public tools immediately and a credited scan without a procurement process.

Can I use Vulnify on any website?

Vulnify is designed for testing websites you own or are explicitly authorized to test. Free public tools run lightweight, non-intrusive checks on any publicly accessible domain. Deeper automated scans require you to confirm ownership or authorization of the target before running. Penetration Test and Comprehensive Pentest also require hostname verification before engines start.

What is included in a Vulnify penetration test?

The $297 Penetration Test is automated evidence-backed testing with HTML, PDF, and one included retest. The $497 Comprehensive Pentest adds extra engines, up to five extra verified hosts, a two-role matrix when two login profiles are supplied, a detailed, actionable PDF for security specialists and developers, ticket-ready remediation, an auditor-ready evidence pack that is not a certificate, and two retests. Neither is a human consultant engagement.

What is Website Watch?

Website Watch is always-on monitoring for one HTTPS origin. Vulnify runs a daily pulse and one weekly Standard or Deep scan (chosen when you add the site), then emails you when something new or worse appears, the score drops, or the certificate hits 30, 14, 7, or expired. Standard is $29 per site per month or $290 per year. Deep is $49 or $490 per year. Included runs do not use credits. Mute and unmute live on the watch page.

Can agencies put their logo on reports?

Yes on Team and Enterprise. White-Label Reports apply your organization name, logo, colors, and support line to scan, pentest, and compliance reports. You can hide Powered by Vulnify and send a 14-day client view. Free and Pro keep Vulnify branding. There is no logged-in client portal.

How do scheduled scans differ from Website Watch?

Website Watch is a per-origin seat: daily pulse plus one weekly Standard or Deep scan locked at checkout. Included Watch runs do not use credits. Scheduled scans run on credits at a cadence you set, including Comprehensive, and start on Pro (up to 3), Team (up to 10), and Enterprise (unlimited). Use Watch for always-on alerts on one HTTPS origin. Use scheduled scans for a custom credit cadence or a deeper depth.
