These are automated programs or services that run vulnerability scans on web-based applications. The scans may consist of searches XSS, SQL injection attacks, vulnerabilities in CMS software, vulnerabilities in installed software packages,Java or JavaScript issues, or brute force attacks. Most of the SaaS offerings are subscription based and recurring scans. Some actually include real people to configure the scanner.
Note that listing a service or online scanner in this directory is not an endorsement. Any online or SaaS scanners should be thoroughly researched before directing it at a website. And, of course, only direct at websites that are yours. Play nice.
