What is ScanTower.io?

ScanTower.io is an external security monitoring platform that helps teams identify misconfigurations, vulnerabilities, and drift in their public-facing infrastructure. It scans websites and SaaS applications for weak security headers, SSL/TLS issues, exposed files, outdated components, and potential malicious scripts - all without requiring agents, credentials, or internal access. Unlike simple one-off checkers, ScanTower continuously monitors certificate transparency logs, DNS records, and security configuration changes to detect shadow subdomains, unauthorized certificates, and unexpected shifts in your security posture. This prevents the silent regressions that often appear during deployments or infrastructure changes. ScanTower provides clear, actionable reporting built from real-world incident response experience. It highlights what’s wrong, why it matters, and how to fix it - making it easy for developers, security engineers, and SaaS teams to maintain strong baseline security with minimal overhead. Ideal for teams that want practical, automated visibility into the external attack surface without the complexity of enterprise scanners.

ScanTower.io is a tool in the Security category of a tech stack.

Needs adviceonScanTower.ioScanTower.io

Hi everyone, I’m the founder of ScanTower.io. I built this tool because, during my incident response work, I kept seeing SaaS companies and websites accidentally exposing themselves through missing headers, misconfigurations, or silent certificate changes. ScanTower is designed to give developers, security engineers, and DevOps teams a fast, external, no-agent way to spot these issues, track changes over time, and get actionable insights.

While we’re currently in beta and not selling plans yet, you can use the code STACKBETA3 for 3 months of Pro access. Happy to answer questions or hear feedback from anyone using it!
