Why you need a Vulnerability Scanning Service

Most breaches exploit known, preventable weaknesses. Yet for many organisations, vulnerability management remains reactive, inconsistent, or simply deprioritised under the pressure of day-to-day operations. Attackers count on that gap.

CheckScan+ closes it. Our managed vulnerability scanning service regularly scans your network, websites, web applications, APIs, and cloud environments, then delivers a clear, prioritised action plan your team can act on immediately. Not an overwhelming list of hundreds of findings that never get resolved. You will know exactly what needs fixing, why it matters, and how to address it. And because CheckScan+ produces compliance-ready documentation aligned to NIS2, DORA, ISO 27001, PCI DSS, and GDPR, it strengthens your security posture and supports your regulatory obligations at the same time.

85%of successful breaches exploit known vulnerabilities that had a patch available for over a year. The risk is not unknown. It is unmanaged.


What we scan

CheckScan+ scans your full attack surface:

  • External websites and web applications
  • APIs and integrations
  • Internal networks and IPs
  • Cloud services
  • Public-facing infrastructure (URLs, domains, servers)

Whether you run a small network or manage complex hybrid estates, CheckScan+ delivers continuous, accurate visibility where it counts.

Vulnerability Scanning Capabilities

How CheckScan+ Works

CheckScan+ is more than just scanning. It’s a continuous, expert-led process designed to uncover real risks, prioritise what matters, and guide your team with clear next steps. So nothing critical slips through the cracks.

  1. Discovery & Asset Mapping
    We map your environment, including external web apps, APIs, networks, cloud services, and infrastructure.
  2. Vulnerability Scanning
    Our scanning engine mimics real-world attack behaviour—testing for XSS, SQLi, IDOR, SSRF, privilege escalation, and more.
  3. Expert Validation
    Our analysts triage results, eliminate false positives, and focus your attention on real, exploitable issues.
  4. Actionable Reporting
    We give you a clean, prioritised action plan that’s easy to digest and ready for remediation.
  5. Continuous Monitoring
    Scans can be scheduled or triggered as needed—perfect for DevOps, CI/CD, or post-remediation validation.

Actionable Reporting

Clear, prioritised reports show exactly what needs fixing, why it matters, and how to resolve it, step by step.

DevSecOps Integration

Embed scanning into CI/CD pipelines. Run automated security checks with SAST and DAST capabilities to protect every release.

Flexible Scheduling

Run one-off scans, schedule them regularly, or trigger on-demand assessments whenever you deploy changes.

Recent Client Feedback

“Working with the CommSec team has been easy, the reporting in-depth and support whenever required is readily available. The service provides us additional confidence in a world where the external information security threats to all financial technology companies and customers are increasing all the time”.

CTO, Aryza – Dublin

Read the case study

CheckScan+ found more issues and more vulnerabilities than our older platform, which was a shock to us as the old system was very good. However the CheckScan+ solution proved to be more advanced and in addition to its powerful scanning, it proved to be a very easy system to integrate into our software development lifecycle and it has actually reduced our costs in this area too. We would highly recommend it.”

CTO @ Time Data Systems (TDS)

CheckScan+ allows my team to focus on our core function, which is software development and enhancing our offering to our customers. We can do this now, assured that the solution is continuously scanning our environment and captures all potential vulnerabilities we may have.”

Continous Vulnerability Scanning Across Your Whole Stack

CheckScan+ goes beyond basic scanning to give you continuous visibility across your attack surface:

  • Dynamic Application Security Testing (DAST)
    Simulate real-world attacks on your live applications.

  • API and Cloud Security
    Discover hidden risks in integrations and cloud services.

  • External Attack Surface Management
    Map and monitor public-facing assets to stay ahead of threats.

Why It’s Different

Not Just Tools – Real Security Analysts
We do not send raw scan data and leave you guessing. Every result is reviewed and validated by our vulnerabilities team, so you can trust what’s flagged.

Prioritisation That Saves Time
We know your team is stretched. That’s why we highlight high-risk and critical vulnerabilities first, so your efforts go where they have the greatest impact.

No False Sense of Security
Many scanners deliver alerts. We deliver clarity. With authenticated crawling, dynamic testing, and exploit validation, we reveal vulnerabilities that traditional tools miss, like logic flaws, exposed APIs, and misconfigurations.

FAQ's

You can scan networks, cloud environments, web applications, APIs, URLs, IPs, and source code for a comprehensive view of your vulnerabilities.

Setup is quick and straightforward. Our team will guide you through configuration so you can start scanning right away.

You can embed automated scans into your CI/CD workflows, running DAST checks as part of your build and release process.

You receive clear, prioritised reports with detailed findings and practical remediation advice to help you close security gaps efficiently.

We recommend continuous or scheduled scans, plus on-demand assessments when you deploy new assets or make significant changes. Scans can be scheduled weekly, bi-monthly, monthly, quarterly etc.

A manual penetration test involves security professionals simulating real-world attacks to find vulnerabilities that automated tools may miss. It is typically conducted at a specific point in time. CheckScan+ is a continuous vulnerability scanning service that automatically detects known issues across your environment. Many organisations use both approaches together—regular scanning to maintain baseline security, and periodic penetration tests for deeper assessment.

CheckScan+ is designed to minimise false positives with advanced detection logic and validation checks. Our Security Analysts will review and confirm findings with you. This helps ensure you focus your time on genuine risks rather than unnecessary noise.
