Web Scanner

The Web Scanner monitors the third-party scripts running on your website with automated scans. It helps you find scripts that may affect your site's privacy posture or compliance with privacy regulations — with no code required.

It's built for privacy and compliance teams who need ongoing visibility into what loads on their pages, especially in HIPAA-regulated workflows where an unexpected tracker carries real risk.

Why use it

• No code required — point the scanner at a URL and it discovers and scans your pages automatically.
• Monitoring on your schedule. Scan each site daily, weekly, or monthly, or on demand only. Set the frequency per site and change it whenever you want.
• Change alerts — when a scan finds a new or higher-risk script, your team is notified by email and in-app, so nothing slips by unnoticed. Each person picks their own channels, and findings can post to a shared Slack channel.
• Privacy-focused detection — flags scripts that match known trackers, ad identifiers, and data-collection patterns.
• Pairs with real-time blocking. With the CMP in Enforce mode, an uncategorized third-party script is blocked in the visitor's browser before it executes, then reported at the next scan.
• CSP visibility — surfaces gaps between your Content Security Policy and the resources actually loading.
• Accessibility checks — runs automated WCAG checks on each page and scores your site's accessibility posture over time.
• Organized review — suppress reviewed items and add notes to track decisions across scans.

• Scan schedule: set how often each site is scanned, from daily to monthly or manual only.
• What the scanner detects — third-party scripts, privacy keywords, cookies, CSP analysis, and accessibility (WCAG) checks.
• Real-time script blocking: how the CMP blocks uncategorized scripts before they execute, and how that differs from scan reporting.
• Managing scan results — suppress alerts and add notes to organize your findings.
• Scanner configuration — exclude pages and set how much of your site each scan covers.
• Allowing the scanner through a firewall — let the crawler reach sites behind a firewall or WAF.
