// ARGUSSYN EATER · Continuous web & API scanning

Argus

Continuous web application security scanning.

Argus is Syn Eater's multi-tenant platform for authorised web application and API security testing — DAST, SCA, CMS fingerprinting, API checks, and compliance-oriented reporting — so teams keep visibility when change never stops.

Syn Eater markets Argus. Operators get access through Security Tools after approval — not a public self-serve trial.

THE PROBLEM
  • Point-in-time tests leave long blind spots between engagements
  • New releases, dependencies, and APIs change faster than annual schedules
  • Leadership needs ongoing evidence of web and API risk — not a single PDF once a year
THE SOLUTION

Argus keeps authorised scanning running so findings, risk context, and reports stay current — multi-tenant isolation for clients or internal teams, with Security Tools SSO after approval.

  • DAST — dynamic testing of web applications under authorised scope
  • SCA — software composition analysis for known vulnerable dependencies
  • CMS and platform fingerprinting for exposure context
WHO IT'S FOR
  • Security teams that need continuous visibility into web and API risk
  • Pentesters and consultancies running authorised follow-on coverage
  • Organisations between formal assessments that still need to watch change
  • Clients already on Syn Eater or Security Tools who want multi-tenant isolation

HOW IT FITS

Argus and PhishSim are different jobs

Argus

Continuous authorised web application and API security scanning — findings, risk context, and reporting for ongoing visibility.

PhishSim

Authorised phishing simulations and human-risk reporting for awareness programmes — not a web scanner.

Syneater markets these platforms; operators work in Security Tools.

FAQ

Is Argus self-serve?

No. Access is request-based. After review, Syn Eater provisions a Security Tools account (Authentik / SSO). There is no public free trial signup.

Does Argus replace penetration testing?

No. Argus provides continuous authorised scanning between point-in-time engagements. Formal pentests and red team work remain separate services.

How is Argus different from PhishSim?

Argus covers web application and API security scanning. PhishSim runs authorised phishing simulations for human-risk and awareness programmes.

Is authorisation required?

Yes. Scanning runs under written permission and agreed scope. Unauthorised testing is never in scope.
