Security News > 2024 > February > Web Check: Open-source intelligence for any website

Web Check offers thorough open-source intelligence and enables users to understand a website's infrastructure and security posture, equipping them with the knowledge to understand, optimize, and secure their online presence.

Web Check provides insight into the inner workings of any specified website, enabling users to identify possible security vulnerabilities, scrutinize the underlying server architecture, inspect security settings, and discover the various technologies employed by the site.

"I'm always looking for ways to increase and improve the data returned. The web scene is constantly changing, so there are always new and interesting insights you can glean from sites. I'm working on some new checks to include this data. I'm also working on a public API to be used programmatically or integrated into researchers' existing workflows. Due to it being free to use, I must also improve performance to keep compute costs down continuously," Sykes concluded.

Web Check is available as a free service, or on GitHub.
