Hi! I'm borski. I'm working on Tinfoil with sbisker and ainsleyb. I've been doing security for a few years.
One thing I've noticed is that, all too often, smart people build websites that have major security vulnerabilities; usually, these are easy to fix, but they'd rather spend their time focusing on building out their product than worrying about security. As well they should.
Tinfoil allows you to worry about your product, not your security. We provide automated scans of network and web vulnerabilities with our custom-built crawler and fuzzer, displaying the results to you in a manner you can understand. You shouldn't have to be a security expert to understand how to fix common vulnerabilities and why fixing them is important.
Let us know what you think!
- nyellin 16y agoWhy did you choose to write your own crawler and fuzzer? Wouldn't it have been easier to use Wapiti, Nikto, Nessus, and W3af with a lightweight SaaS wrapper of your own?
- borski 16y agoWe're doing both, actually. There are some things we're doing that are fairly unique, but part of the scanning system is in fact wrapping already existing tools. It's the unique parts that are custom-built. Finding 0day is hard with the existing tools. :)
