Professional web application security testing

Argus

A DAST and proxy workbench for security teams that need authenticated coverage, readable traffic, AI-assisted triage, and findings backed by evidence.

Built for security professionals

A scanner that stays close to the evidence.

Argus combines automated DAST coverage with the manual testing surface professionals expect: HTTP history, repeater, authenticated crawling, finding triage, and reproducible proof artifacts.

Traffic

Burp-style HTTP history with Argus context.

Filter, inspect, highlight, replay, and analyze captured traffic without leaving the workbench.

Scanner

Authenticated DAST with visible scan state.

Queue scans, confirm login status, watch events, and review findings with coverage context.

Repeater

Manual replay for proof and refinement.

Send requests from traffic or findings, edit them, rerun them, and save evidence for reporting.

01

Authenticated crawling

Configure form, multi-step form, cookie, and header auth at the target level. Argus records whether login succeeded before trusting authenticated results.

02

Traffic-first workflow

Capture browser and scanner traffic, filter by host, method, risk, and content type, then send requests directly to Repeater for manual validation.

03

Evidence-weighted findings

Findings are calibrated against baseline responses, block pages, deletion cookies, and generic client-side markers to reduce noisy false positives.

04

AI-assisted review

Use AI on captured exchanges and findings to explain request purpose, identify interesting inputs, suggest safe follow-up tests, and draft report language.

05

Controlled scan budgets

Limit pages, depth, concurrency, URL signatures, and static assets so large targets produce usable coverage instead of infinite crawl noise.

06

Report-ready context

Coverage stats, skipped reason codes, affected URLs, reproduction steps, and confidence details help teams understand what was tested and what was not.

Workflow

From target setup to validated report.

1

Define scope

Add authorized targets, auth details, scan intensity, crawl budgets, and proxy behavior.

2

Capture reality

Use the proxied browser and traffic history to observe the app as users and scanners see it.

3

Scan with control

Run active checks with concurrency, jitter, WAF awareness, and deduplication tuned per target.

4

Triage and prove

Inspect requests, replay variants, review AI analysis, and promote only evidence-backed findings.

Coverage with accountability

No more mystery scans.

Argus records crawl and scan limits, skipped URL reason codes, block-page observations, deduplicated signatures, and whether a report is complete or partial.

  • Max pages, depth, runtime, concurrency, and query variants
  • Same-host, subdomain, and static asset controls
  • Skipped reasons preserved for report transparency
  • WAF and block page awareness during validation

Reporting

Findings that a human can defend.

SQL injection via email

Differential login behavior indicates authentication bypass through a crafted email parameter. Evidence includes baseline, payload, response comparison, and replayable request data.

Positioning

Automation for people who still validate.

Automated scanners

Broad coverage, but reports can become noisy when evidence is thin, routes are duplicated, or block pages look like vulnerabilities.

Manual proxy tools

Excellent request control, but repetitive triage, crawler coverage, and report assembly still consume time.

Argus

Combines scanner coverage, proxy-grade inspection, replay, AI review, and report context in one workflow.
