24 alternatives to SecureNow
Hi HN, I'm an Indie Dev. Building web apps, I struggled to check for vulnerabilities on a surface and a deeper level at the same time. Most free scanners gave vague results or missed dependency issues and tools for deeper searches are mainly for enterprise. Also with vibe coding the issue of security is rising more and more. I built SecureNow - a simple web scanner built with Next.js and Supabase that checks SSL, ports, dependencies, headers, and basic vulns. It caught real issues in my projects. Free basic scans at securenow.app. Feedback on accuracy and missing features? Thanks!

Yes, it's open source: https://github.com/lissy93/web-check :) Why I'm building this? There are a lot of tools out there for discovering meta and security data relating to a website, IP or server. But currently, there isn't anything that does everything, all in one place and without a paywall/ user sign up. It's still a WIP, and I'm working on a new version, with some more comprehensive checks, so any feedback would be much appreciated :)

AttackerView▲13Last week I wrote about building a scanner that writes its own exploits. A cron job runs Claude Code every night, it reads new CVEs, writes proof-of-concept checks, tests them against vulnerable and patched Docker instances, and opens PRs. I review and merge in the morning. That post was about how t

We're launching SecureBuild: https://securebuild.com — a new way for open source projects and maintainers to earn revenue by partnering with and endorsing our Zero-CVE container images of their project. We’ve spent the last decade at Replicated (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=9841243) helping commercial and open source software vendors securely distribute their apps to enterprise environments. During that time, we saw firsthand how hard it is for maintainers to fund their work, and how increasingly demanding enterprises have become when it comes to demonstrable…

I built this after seeing multiple teams accidentally ship API keys in their frontend code. The problem: Modern web development moves fast. You're vibe-coding, shipping features, and suddenly your AWS keys are sitting in a tag visible to anyone who opens DevTools. I've personally witnessed this happen to at least 3-4 production apps in the past year alone. KeyLeak Detector runs through your site (headless browser + network interception) and checks for 50+ types of leaked secrets: AWS/Google keys, Stripe tokens, database connection strings, LLM API keys (OpenAI, Claude, etc.), JWT…
