What our customers say

Intruder's Cloudbot is a game changer for any organisation with a complex cloud environment. As a CISO, I have found the automated scanning and notification features invaluable.

I really like how Intruder integrated with our internal company comms (ie Slack), this meant we stayed on top of the notifications it produced. Time is critical when it comes to security vulns so it’s helpful to have messages from Intruder next to our daily workflows.

Auto-discovery, a very proactive set of scans against emerging threats and solid notifications. Intruder is a tool I can forget about unless I need to. Rock solid UX.

How does Intruder’s CloudBot work?

CloudBot automatically checks for new external IP addresses or hostnames in your GCP infrastructure and adds them 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.

What underlying scanner does Intruder use?  

Intruder uses industry-leading scanning engines, each running thousands of thorough security checks. Read more about it in our help article.  

Do you offer Google Cloud penetration testing services?  

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 Google Cloud systems, helping you identify critical issues faster. 

How do I know if I am choosing the right vulnerability scanner?  

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 GCP security scanner, such as the scanner’s reporting capabilities and features.
