You can connect your Intruder account in two ways: by creating an IAM role for Intruder (AWS AssumeRole functionality), or by adding a new IAM user and entering the access keys. For the full steps, click here.
Cloud Sync automatically adds any new external IP addresses or hostnames in cloud accounts as Intruder targets – so you don't have to. You can also enable these new targets to be scanned automatically as soon as they are added.
Intruder uses industry-leading scanning engines, each running thousands of thorough security checks. Read more about it in our help article.
Yes, we do! As well as cloud vulnerability scanning, we have a team of certified security professionals who can perform continuous penetration testing of your AWS systems, helping you identify critical issues faster.
Firstly, if the vulnerability scanner that you’re considering offers a free trial, we recommend scanning a known vulnerable system (e.g. testphp.vulnweb.com) to see the spectrum of results that the scanner comes back with and quality of the checks. Of course, there are other important areas to consider when choosing the right scanner for AWS, such as the scanner’s reporting capabilities and features.
