Continuous Full-Port Vulnerability Scanning Cost-Prohibitive for Small Compliance Teams
Small companies required to maintain SOC 2 or ISO 27001 compliance face a gap in vulnerability scanning tools: affordable options cap port coverage at 1,000 ports and run only monthly, while full 65,535-port daily scanning comes at enterprise pricing (€700+/month) with unfiltered raw output requiring extensive manual triage. This leaves small security teams paying premium prices for infrequent, noisy results, or accepting meaningful blind spots in their attack surface coverage. The problem is structural because compliance mandates require continuous scanning regardless of company size, but the market has not priced accordingly.

Similar Problems
surfaced semanticallyMSP Field Technicians Lack a Unified Portable Network Discovery Tool
Network technicians doing on-site client work must switch between multiple tools — nmap, ARP scanners, manual commands — to achieve basic network visibility, creating fragmented and inefficient workflows. There is no single lightweight, portable executable that combines device discovery, port scanning, MAC vendor lookup, and device classification. This gap forces field techs to carry and maintain multiple tools for routine tasks performed at every client site.
Security Scanners Too Slow for Developer Workflows
Existing security scanners like Semgrep take 10-30 seconds per scan. Developers need sub-second scanning for productive security workflows.
Vulnerability Scanners Generate Too Much Noise Without Exploitability Context
Tools like Trivy and Grype surface thousands of CVEs per container without indicating which are actually exploitable in the target environment. Self-hosters and small teams need actionable alerts scoped to their specific services rather than raw CVE lists. The gap between raw scanner output and actionable security intelligence is a persistent pain.
Pentesting environment setup is slow and non-portable across engagements
Security professionals waste time reprovisioning pentesting toolchains across engagements because existing kits like Kali Linux require manual setup and lack browser-accessible GUIs for remote or containerized workflows. Portability and reproducibility are unaddressed.
