API and Backend Process Scan – 6 Scans of Your API From the Outside, One Report

Your API and its backend, seen the way a stranger sees them.

The API and Backend Process Scan is for anyone running a web app, a SaaS product or a public API. It discovers the API addresses your own front-end calls, then makes ordinary read-only requests to see which answer without a login, whether your API documentation or GraphQL schema is public, and whether a secret key is sitting in your front-end code. It checks which ports answer on your server and what is really behind them, the certificate, your DNS and domain security — registrar lock, expiry and subdomain takeover — and whether any storage bucket is publicly listable.

What's included

• API & Web-Endpoint Security Scan — endpoints your front-end calls, exposed docs, keys in JavaScript, unauthenticated data ($69)
• Internet Exposure Scan — open ports, exposed remote access, service banners ($69)
• Certificate & Encryption Check — expiry, issuer, protocol and cipher strength ($19)
• Domain & DNS Security Check — registrar lock, expiry, DNSSEC, subdomain takeover ($39)
• Code & Secrets Scanner — credentials in your working tree and git history ($59)
• Cloud Storage Exposure Check — publicly listable or readable buckets ($49)

Bought separately: $304. This scan: $229.

Why the scan beats six separate scans

The chain this scan hunts for is an undocumented endpoint found in your JavaScript that answers without authentication and returns customer data — together with the exposed port, the weak certificate or the dangling subdomain that turns it from a finding into an incident. Each scan sees one link; the combined report describes the route. Findings are mapped to the OWASP API Security Top 10. Nothing is submitted, injected, fuzzed or exploited, and no login is attempted. The Linux Server Hardening Check is the recommended companion for anyone running their own server and is sold separately, because it cannot run from a Windows package.

What you get

• One written PDF report emailed back to you, typically within one business day.
• A per-surface score — API, perimeter, transport, domain, code, storage — and a combined external picture.
• Attack-chain analysis showing how the exposures combine into one route in.
• Cross-scan corroboration, so a finding seen by three scans appears once, marked confirmed, instead of three times.
• Named coverage gaps for anything that could not be checked — never quietly counted as a pass.
• A 90-day remediation plan ordered by what an attacker reaches for first.
• An executive summary written for a customer's security questionnaire.
• Reporting built to CompTIA Security+ and PenTest+ practice standards.

Who it's for

Founders and small teams running a web application or API, and businesses that had one built for them and have never seen it from the outside.

Requirements

• Windows 10 or Windows 11
• No administrator rights needed
• An internet connection
• The address of the website or API, your domain, and optionally a local copy of the code
• About 20 minutes
• You must own or be authorised to test everything you enter

What this is not

QuickScan is detection and advisory only. Nothing in this scan logs in, submits a form, injects a payload, guesses a credential or exploits a weakness; it checks whether things answer and what they reveal. If a firewall blocks the checks, the report says so instead of reporting a clean result. It is not a penetration test, a certification, an audit or an attestation — if it surfaces something serious, it points you to ThreatVector's hands-on Internet Exposure Security Scan.
