ScanSearch review
A cloud scanner for internet exposure, vulnerability matching, monitoring, and API-driven workflows.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
ScanSearch is a hosted internet scanner for penetration testers, bug-bounty hunters, security researchers, and defensive teams. Its live SYN scanning covers IPs, CIDR ranges, ASNs, countries, domains, and uploaded target lists. Results can include services, software versions, banners, protocols, operating systems, device fingerprints, TLS details, and vulnerability matches with CVSS scoring. The web platform, REST API, and Linux support make it suitable for internet-facing asset discovery and ongoing exposure review.
Pricing is split across Internet Scanner, Dork Scanner, and Attack Surface Monitoring. The Free Internet Scanner plan includes 1 kpps scan speed, 1 scan at a time, full service detection, and limited export. Internet Scanner costs $0.30 per kpps per month and adds unlimited results per scan, CSV and JSON export, up to 10 queued scans, API access, and 90-day retention. Its Enterprise tier adds volume discounts, dedicated scan servers, unlimited queueing, scheduled and recurring scans, webhooks, SIEM integration, an SLA, and a dedicated account manager. Dork Scanner ranges from a free plan to Pro at $39 per month and Business at $99 per month, while Attack Surface Monitoring ranges from a free 1-asset plan to Pro at $49 per month for 25 assets, daily scans, alerts, and API access.
The strongest fit is for users who need internet-scale target flexibility, enrichment, vulnerability matching, exports, or recurring exposure monitoring in one service. Email and webhook alerts, REST API controls, and SIEM integration support operational workflows beyond one-time port discovery. However, the product is less suitable for teams seeking a narrowly focused local scanner or a straightforward fixed-price structure across every scanning tier. API details should be validated before production integration because the published pages contain inconsistent API base URLs.
