detectify

Detectify is an External Attack Surface Management (EASM) and Dynamic Application Security Testing (DAST) platform that continuously discovers an organization's internet-facing assets and runs real, payload-based vulnerability tests against them. Its testing engine is fuelled by Crowdsource, a network of ~400 vetted ethical hackers who contribute 1,765+ vulnerability modules at a ~99.7% true-positive rate. Detectify ships four products — Surface Monitoring (attack surface management), Application Scanning (web app DAST), API Scanning (OpenAPI-driven API security testing), and Internal Scanning — plus a REST API (v3), a remotely-hosted MCP server for AI-driven workflows, and integrations for Jira, Slack, Splunk, and CI/CD. Founded in Stockholm and backed by Balderton Capital and Insight Partners.

detectify publishes 1 API on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Security, Cybersecurity, Attack Surface Management, and EASM.

The detectify catalog on APIs.io includes 1 event-driven AsyncAPI specification.

detectify’s developer surface includes documentation, API reference, getting-started guide, support, engineering blog, pricing, signup flow, and 21 more developer resources.

Create-or-Update Ergonomics could not be measured. We hold no machine-readable contract for this provider to read, so there is nothing to measure a write surface against. Excluded rather than scored zero: never-measured and measured-empty are different facts. Publishing an OpenAPI is what makes this facet — and several others — scorable at all.

Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. Every facet and dimension name above is a link: it opens that measurement's own page — what it means, the exact checks that feed it, how the whole catalog distributes on it, and the providers at the top of it. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/detectify: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.
