What is web application scanning?

Modern web applications are complex, dynamic, and often the main entry point to your business. They are used extensively by customers, employees, and partners, making them a popular target for attackers.

Catcher24 continuously tests your applications for critical security flaws such as SQL injections, XSS, outdated libraries, and weak login processes. These comprehensive scans are fully automated, so you don't have to manually analyze code.

You get insight into the most important risks, a clear overview in your dashboard, and concrete advice on how to fix them. This way, you can keep rolling out releases while Catcher24 monitors security.

What is included in our web application scanner?

Web apps are constantly changing. New features, integrations, and frameworks, or a missed update of your organization's web applications, bring new risks. Catcher24 scans them automatically, so you always know if your apps are still secure.

SQL Injection

Protection of your data

An SQL injection can give attackers direct access to your database. Catcher24 automatically detects these vulnerabilities and helps you prevent sensitive customer and company data from being stolen.

Cross-Site Scripting (XSS)

Secure user experience

XSS attacks use malicious scripts to hijack user sessions or steal data. Catcher24 identifies these flaws and provides advice, so your users remain protected and your reputation is not at stake.

Authentication

Reliable authentication

Weaknesses in login processes can lead to account takeovers. Catcher24 checks if your authentication is set up correctly, detects session hijacking or default passwords, and helps you ensure that only the right people get access.

Outdated libraries

Stay up-to-date and secure

Many web apps run on open-source libraries. If they are outdated, they are an easy entry point for attackers. Catcher24 detects which versions you are using and warns you about known vulnerabilities, so you can patch in time.

The importance of scanning web applications

Web applications are often the first targets of hackers. They are visible, used intensively, change quickly, and often contain personal data. You want to minimize the risk of data loss or misuse of your organization's or customers' data. Therefore, security should never be an afterthought.

Web apps are the main entry point for attackers.

External libraries carry risks.

Security without slowing down your development team.

Frequently asked questions

Is a web application scan the same as a pentest?

Not quite. A pentest is a manual, in-depth test by specialists, usually once a year. Catcher24's web application scanner automatically and regularly looks for known vulnerabilities, using the same techniques attackers use. The two complement each other.

How often should I scan my web applications?

We recommend scheduling scans regularly, at least once a month, with real-time notifications for any new vulnerabilities that arise.

What is the difference between an infrastructure scanner and a web application scanner?

Infrastructure scan: checks servers, networks, and cloud settings for OS and service vulnerabilities.

Web application scan: tests websites and APIs for application-specific flaws such as SQL injection and XSS.

Consult our help article for a further explanation of the different types of scans.

Does the scanner also support APIs and Single-Page Applications (SPAs)?

Yes. The scanner also works with SPAs and APIs, and can scan JavaScript frameworks and other external libraries.

What do you mean by authenticated scans?

Authenticated scans are scans in which the scanner gains access to parts of the application that require a login or certain permissions. This allows the scanner to also look for vulnerabilities that are behind an authentication layer, for example, in dashboard functions.

Can the scanner also scan test environments (development/staging)?

Yes, as long as the environment is reachable from the internet. We recommend scanning a test or staging environment that mirrors production. The scan also attempts database injections, which can change or damage data.
