PentestCheck vs Infrastructure Scanners

Both platforms cover external attack surface management and active vulnerability scanning. PentestCheck focuses on the external web surface and rates every finding with a 0–10 Threat Score; Intruder excels at infrastructure-layer scanning and internal network coverage.

The Core Difference

PentestCheck

Active application-layer DAST (SQL injection and LFI tests in Deep mode) and a 0–10 Threat Score on every finding, with each target scored by its worst open finding. Free tier. Webhook alerts on Pro and Enterprise plans.

Intruder

Strong infrastructure scanning engine (ports, services, CVEs). Supports internal network scanning via agent. Good for organizations with significant on-premise or VPC infrastructure alongside external surfaces.
