Intruder
Editorial coverage of Intruder.
Intruder is a cloud-based vulnerability management platform combining continuous scanning of internet-facing infrastructure, web applications and APIs with external attack-surface discovery.
Who makes Intruder
Intruder publishes the platform directly at intruder.io, selling tiered subscriptions with self-serve signup rather than a mandatory sales process.

What it actually does
A hosted portal where customers add targets — domains, IP addresses, web applications, APIs and cloud accounts — and receive continuous scanning with prioritised findings and remediation guidance. Attack-surface discovery surfaces exposed services and subdomains that were never deliberately added to scope, and emerging-threat scanning runs when a significant vulnerability becomes public.

What people hire it for
- Continuous vulnerability management of internet-facing infrastructure
- Discovering unknown or forgotten internet-facing assets
- Producing scanning evidence for SOC 2, ISO 27001 and customer questionnaires
- Routing prioritised findings into Slack, Microsoft Teams or Jira
- Keeping cloud estates in scope as infrastructure changes
Where it runs
Security & privacy
Intruder is delivered as SaaS with scanning run from its own infrastructure; internal and authenticated scanning are documented via an agent or scanning appliance model. Its material positions reports as supporting evidence for SOC 2 and ISO 27001 rather than as certification.
