Title: Show HN: ComplianceLayer – External security scoring API for any domain (DNS, SSL, ports, headers)

Hey HN,

I built ComplianceLayer after getting frustrated with two things:

Enterprise security scoring tools (SecurityScorecard, BitSight) that cost $20K+/year and are built for procurement teams, not engineers
Security audits that live in PDFs nobody reads

ComplianceLayer is an API that scans any domain and returns a structured security score across four categories:

DNS/Email — SPF, DMARC, DKIM, CAA, DNSSEC
SSL/TLS — cert validity, chain issues, expiry, protocol versions
Open ports — TCP scan for exposed services (RDP, SSH, SMB, common web ports)
HTTP headers — HSTS, CSP, X-Frame-Options, CORS, referrer policy

Each check returns a score (0-100), grade (A-F), and specific findings with remediation steps.

Use cases so far:

MSPs running automated security checks across their client base
SaaS companies checking vendor/supplier posture before onboarding
Security consultants generating client-facing reports programmatically
Developers building security dashboards

Quick example:

curl -H "Authorization: Bearer sk_..." \
  https://api.compliancelayer.net/v1/scan \
  -d '{"domain": "example.com"}'

Returns:

{
  "domain": "example.com",
  "overall_score": 74,
  "grade": "C",
  "categories": {
    "dns_email": {"score": 65, "grade": "D", "issues": ["No DMARC policy", "No DKIM"]},
    "ssl_tls": {"score": 98, "grade": "A", "issues": []},
    "open_ports": {"score": 80, "grade": "B", "issues": ["Port 22 open"]},
    "http_headers": {"score": 55, "grade": "F", "issues": ["No HSTS", "No CSP", "No X-Frame-Options"]}
  }
}

What I found scanning 200 random SMB domains:

59% have no DMARC policy (fully spoofable)
29% serve HTTP without redirect
18% have SSH exposed directly to internet
7% have RDP exposed to internet (the scariest one)
Only 23% have HSTS enabled

Pricing: Free tier (10 scans/day), then $99/mo for 250 scans. API key in 30 seconds, no sales call.

Happy to answer questions about the tech stack, scanning methodology, or how I handle rate limiting / false positives on the port scanning side.

compliancelayer.net

Anticipated HN Questions & Answers

"How do you handle false positives on port scanning?"

TCP SYN scan with 3-attempt verification before flagging. We also check against common CDN/proxy IP ranges and flag those differently. Still imperfect — external port scanning has inherent limitations. We're clear about that in the docs.

"What's the legal situation with scanning domains you don't own?"

We scan only publicly accessible services — same as what any internet-connected system can observe. No exploitation, no intrusion. We follow responsible disclosure norms and have a clear AUP. Scanning a domain you don't own for malicious purposes violates our ToS.

"How does this compare to Shodan?"

Shodan is a search engine for internet-connected devices — it indexes what it finds. ComplianceLayer is a scoring/reporting layer that combines multiple data sources (DNS lookups, SSL checks, port scans, header analysis) and gives you a structured grade optimized for reporting and monitoring, not raw discovery.

"What's the tech stack?"

Python/FastAPI backend, PostgreSQL, Redis for rate limiting and caching. Port scanning via asyncio with custom TCP implementation (not nmap — too heavy for API use). Hosted on Hetzner.

"Can I self-host this?"

Not currently. It's SaaS. The port scanning infrastructure in particular is complex to self-host correctly (IP reputation, rate limiting, legal compliance per jurisdiction).

"What's the scan speed?"

Full scan (all 4 categories) typically completes in 8-15 seconds. DNS/SSL/Headers are fast; port scanning is the bottleneck. We scan ~100 common ports.

ComplianceLayer — 90-Day SEO Content Calendar

Produced: March 2026

Domain: compliancelayer.net

Strategy: Low-competition, buyer-intent keywords. Attack underserved gaps in the security scoring market. Win with specificity where enterprise tools are too broad and too expensive.

Strategic Notes Before You Publish

Why these 12 articles specifically:

Competitor comparison articles (Articles 1-3) have the highest buyer intent of any content category. Someone googling "SecurityScorecard alternative" is actively shopping.
The compliance deadline content (Articles 7-9) rides a regulation wave — HIPAA update Dec 2024, CMMC 2.0 enforcement Nov 2025, SOC 2 demand still growing. These get shared heavily in MSP Slack groups and Reddit.
Technical explainers (Articles 10-12) are the long tail. Lower volume but very low competition. You'll rank fast and they serve as the foundation for internal links.
Original data post (Article 6) is your wild card — this is the content that gets picked up by MSP newsletters and shared on r/msp. It builds domain authority.

Internal linking strategy:

Every article should link to /pricing page and /api-docs (or /get-started)
Build clusters: Comparison articles link to each other → to technical explainers → back to compliance articles
The data post (Article 6) should be linked from EVERY other article as your authority piece

SEO Quick Reference — Estimated KD (Keyword Difficulty) Scale:

KD 0-20: Will rank in 30-60 days with minimal backlinks
KD 21-40: Rank in 90-120 days, needs some links
KD 41+: Long game, 6+ months

Month 1 (Days 1-30): Alternative/Comparison Cluster

Goal: Capture buyers already shopping. These are the fastest-converting articles you'll write.

Article 1 — Week 1

Title: "SecurityScorecard Alternative for MSPs: 5 Cheaper Options That Actually Work in 2025"

Primary Keyword: securityscorecard alternative

Est. Monthly Search Volume: 600-900/mo (US)

Keyword Difficulty: ~35 (competitive but winnable — most ranking pages are generic G2-style roundups, not MSP-specific)

Secondary Keywords:

securityscorecard pricing too expensive (~150/mo)
securityscorecard MSP (~100/mo)
security rating tool for small business (~200/mo)
cyber risk scoring API (~80/mo)
affordable vendor risk management (~150/mo)

Search Intent: Commercial (comparison/evaluation)

Word Count Target: 2,800 words

Key Angle / Hook:

The real pain point from Reddit r/msp: "SSC is too expensive for us because our average seat count is 20 and SSC is per customer" — this is the hook. Frame the whole article around MSPs managing 10-50 clients who need per-client security visibility but can't justify $26,000+/year (Vendr avg transaction data).

Lead with actual MSP use cases: "You need to run a quick security check before onboarding a new client. You need a talking point for your QBR. You need to justify your $500/mo security retainer." Then evaluate 5 alternatives on: price, API availability, ease of use for MSPs, white-label potential.

Make ComplianceLayer #1 on the list. Be honest about what the tool does and doesn't do — readers see through shills. Position it as "purpose-built for MSPs who need external posture, not enterprise vendor risk management."

Internal Linking Opportunities:

Link to Article 3 (UpGuard alternative)
Link to Article 4 (MSP security assessment guide)
Link to Article 10 (what are HTTP security headers)
Link to /pricing page

CTA: "ComplianceLayer starts at $99/mo with API access included. No per-domain pricing — scan all your clients. [Start free trial →]"

Article 2 — Week 2

Title: "BitSight vs SecurityScorecard vs ComplianceLayer: Which Security Scoring Tool Is Right for Your SMB?"

Primary Keyword: bitsight alternative

Est. Monthly Search Volume: 400-600/mo

Keyword Difficulty: ~28 (BitSight skews enterprise — their content doesn't speak to SMBs)

Secondary Keywords:

bitsight pricing (~300/mo — most people searching this get sticker shock)
security scorecard comparison (~250/mo)
vendor risk management SMB (~200/mo)
external security assessment tool (~150/mo)
security rating service cost (~100/mo)

Search Intent: Commercial

Word Count Target: 2,500 words

Key Angle / Hook:

BitSight starts at $20K+/year. SecurityScorecard averages $26K/year (Vendr data). For an SMB or MSP, these aren't options — they're a different conversation entirely. This article doesn't pretend to do an enterprise feature comparison. It explicitly says: "If you're under 250 employees or managing clients under 100 employees, these tools weren't built for you. Here's what was."

Include a price comparison table (nothing drives shares on LinkedIn like a brutally honest pricing table). Show the math: BitSight at $20K vs. ComplianceLayer Pro at $249/mo ($2,988/yr) for unlimited domains.

Internal Linking:

Article 1 (SecurityScorecard alternative)
Article 5 (QBR security reporting)
Link to /api-docs

CTA: "See our full pricing — and why MSPs with 20+ clients choose the flat-rate Business plan. [Compare plans →]"

Article 3 — Week 3

Title: "UpGuard Alternative: 4 Tools That Don't Cost $20,000 a Year"

Primary Keyword: upguard alternative

Est. Monthly Search Volume: 500-700/mo

Keyword Difficulty: ~30 (UpGuard's own blog ranks for this — beatable with specificity)

Secondary Keywords:

upguard pricing (~400/mo — high buying intent, people get quotes and flee)
upguard for small business (~100/mo)
third party risk management affordable (~200/mo)
vendor security assessment tool (~180/mo)
risk ledger alternative (~50/mo)

Search Intent: Commercial / Transactional

Word Count Target: 2,200 words

Key Angle / Hook:

UpGuard's own website says they make "scaling vendor management extremely expensive" (Risk Ledger competitor's words — but UpGuard's pricing bears this out). The hook: "UpGuard is excellent if you have a dedicated vendor risk team and $30K+ budget. Most SMBs have neither."

Focus on the gap: UpGuard is designed for enterprises that need to assess hundreds of vendors. ComplianceLayer is for businesses that need to assess their own external posture plus a handful of key vendors/clients. Different use case, radically different price.

Internal Linking:

Article 1, Article 2
Article 9 (SOC 2 for SMBs — vendor assessment is a SOC 2 requirement)
Article 11 (DNS security explainer)

CTA: "Start monitoring your external attack surface for $99/mo. No contract required. [Get API access →]"

Article 4 — Week 4

Title: "The Affordable Security Scoring API: What MSPs Need to Know About External Risk Intelligence in 2025"

Primary Keyword: security scoring API

Est. Monthly Search Volume: 200-350/mo

Keyword Difficulty: ~18 (low competition, technical audience — perfect fit for ComplianceLayer)

Secondary Keywords:

external attack surface API (~100/mo)
security rating API developers (~80/mo)
DNS SSL security check API (~60/mo)
cyber risk API SMB (~50/mo)
security posture API integration (~80/mo)

Search Intent: Commercial / Transactional (developers and technical buyers)

Word Count Target: 2,000 words

Key Angle / Hook:

This article is for the technical buyer — the IT director or MSP owner who wants to build something with security data, not just look at a dashboard. Show actual API response examples (redacted). Explain what you can do with the data: auto-generate client security reports, trigger alerts in your RMM, feed data into your QBR slides.

This is also your SEO anchor for the API positioning — critical for when developers search for security APIs to integrate.

Title: "How to Add External Security Scoring to Your MSP QBR (With a Free Report Template)"

Primary Keyword: MSP security QBR template

Est. Monthly Search Volume: 250-400/mo

Keyword Difficulty: ~15 (barely any competition — vCIOToolbox and Humanize IT are there but leaving tons of space)

Secondary Keywords:

MSP quarterly business review security (~200/mo)
QBR cybersecurity slide template (~150/mo)
MSP client security report (~180/mo)
how to report security posture to clients (~100/mo)
MSP security upsell QBR (~80/mo)

Search Intent: Informational / Commercial (MSP operators looking for tools and workflows)

Word Count Target: 3,000 words

Key Angle / Hook:

The real value here is the free downloadable template (even a Google Slides link). MSPs share useful templates obsessively — this article will get bookmarked and shared on r/msp, MSP subreddits, and ConnectWise/Autotask communities.

The hook: "Your QBR used to be a license renewal conversation. Now it's your best security upsell. Here's exactly how to present external risk data to a non-technical SMB owner in a way that leads to a 'yes'."

Include: what metrics to pull (open ports, DNS health, SSL expiry, header scores), how to contextualize them for a non-technical audience, sample language to use, and how ComplianceLayer's API can pull this data automatically before each QBR.

Article 6 — Week 6

Title: "We Scanned 10,000 SMB Domains: Here's What We Found (2025 External Security Report)"

Primary Keyword: SMB cybersecurity statistics 2025

Est. Monthly Search Volume: 300-500/mo

Keyword Difficulty: ~20 (original data with this specificity is very rare — you'll own it)

Secondary Keywords:

small business SSL certificate expired (~100/mo)
SMB open ports security risk (~120/mo)
DMARC adoption rate small business (~150/mo)
HTTP security headers missing statistics (~80/mo)
external attack surface SMB report (~60/mo)

Search Intent: Informational (researchers, journalists, MSPs building cases for clients)

Word Count Target: 3,500 words (this is your flagship data post)

Key Angle / Hook:

This is your "we did original research" article — the type that gets linked from cybersecurity newsletters, Hacker News, and MSP blogs. This one article can generate more backlinks than your entire other 11 articles combined.

Findings to highlight (based on publicly known patterns you can surface with your own data):

X% of SMB domains had expired or misconfigured SSL
X% had no DMARC record configured
X% exposed unnecessary open ports (22, 3389, etc.)
X% had critical HTTP security headers missing (CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options)
Most common vulnerable port by industry

Structure: executive summary (shareable as standalone), methodology, findings by category, implications for MSPs, recommendations.

⚠️ Action Required: Run this scan before publishing. Pull real data from ComplianceLayer's own API. Even 1,000 domains is enough for statistical validity.

Title: "How MSPs Run External Security Assessments for New Clients (Step-by-Step)"

Primary Keyword: MSP security assessment for clients

Est. Monthly Search Volume: 200-350/mo

Keyword Difficulty: ~18 (very little good how-to content here — most is generic)

Secondary Keywords:

Search Intent: Informational / Commercial

Word Count Target: 2,500 words

Key Angle / Hook:

The practical workflow article. Step 1 through Step 8 with real commands/API calls. Frame it as: "This is the exact process to run before you sign a new MSP client — or at any QBR. Takes 15 minutes. Gives you a defensible external risk baseline."

Include the actual domains of checks: DNS (SPF, DKIM, DMARC), SSL (cert validity, cipher strength), open ports (what's exposed, why it matters), HTTP headers (missing security controls). Give real examples of what "bad" looks like vs. "good."

Internal Linking:

Primary Keyword: CMMC 2.0 external attack surface

Est. Monthly Search Volume: 300-500/mo

Keyword Difficulty: ~22 (CMMC content is saturated but this specific angle — external attack surface — is underserved)

Secondary Keywords:

CMMC 2.0 compliance deadline (~800/mo — high volume, more competitive)
CMMC 2.0 network assessment requirements (~200/mo)
CMMC DNS SSL compliance (~80/mo)
defense contractor cybersecurity requirements (~300/mo)
CMMC 2.0 small business (~250/mo)

Search Intent: Informational / Commercial (contractors with real compliance urgency)

Word Count Target: 2,800 words

Key Angle / Hook:

CMMC 2.0 final rule effective November 10, 2025 — enforcement is real. The hook: "You've read about CMMC's 110 controls. But most contractors overlook the external-facing infrastructure that assessors check first. If your DNS, SSL, or open ports are misconfigured, you'll fail before the auditor even reviews your policies."

Map specific CMMC controls (AC.1.001, IA.1.001, SC.1.001) to the external checks ComplianceLayer runs. Be specific about what assessors look for in the external scan phase.

Internal Linking:

Secondary Keywords:

HIPAA security rule 2025 changes (~500/mo)
HIPAA external vulnerability scan (~150/mo)
HIPAA penetration testing requirements (~200/mo)
healthcare SMB cybersecurity compliance (~180/mo)
covered entity security assessment tool (~100/mo)

Search Intent: Informational / Commercial (healthcare IT buyers with compliance urgency)

Word Count Target: 2,500 words

Key Angle / Hook:

HHS published a HIPAA Security Rule update December 27, 2024 — now requiring vulnerability scanning at least every 6 months and penetration testing annually. This is a real deadline. Healthcare SMBs (dental offices, clinics, small hospitals) are just now figuring out what this means.

The hook: "HIPAA now requires what SecurityScorecard and Nessus used to cost $10,000+ to do. Here's how SMBs can meet the new scanning requirements affordably."

Position external security scanning (DNS, SSL, open ports, headers) as the continuous monitoring component between formal pen tests.

Internal Linking:

Article 10 — Week 11

Title: "SOC 2 for Small Businesses: The External Security Controls You Must Have Before Your Audit"

Primary Keyword: SOC 2 small business

Est. Monthly Search Volume: 700-1,000/mo

Keyword Difficulty: ~35 (competitive but rankable with specific angle — "external controls before audit" is a gap)

Secondary Keywords:

SOC 2 compliance SMB cost (~500/mo)
SOC 2 external security requirements (~150/mo)
SOC 2 type 1 small company (~300/mo)
SOC 2 vendor assessment requirements (~120/mo)
SOC 2 audit preparation checklist (~400/mo)

Search Intent: Commercial / Informational

Word Count Target: 3,000 words

Key Angle / Hook:

SOC 2 Type 1 costs $15,000-$50,000 for small businesses (auditor fees alone). Most SMBs waste months getting ready only to be surprised by remediations. This article covers what auditors check externally before they get to your policies — and how to fix those issues in days, not months.

Specific focus: availability controls (uptime, SSL cert validity), security controls (open ports, headers, TLS configuration), and vendor management (third-party security scores). All things ComplianceLayer checks.

DMARC SPF DKIM explained (~800/mo)
DMARC MSP email security (~200/mo)
why is DMARC important (~400/mo)
check DMARC record (~1,200/mo)

Search Intent: Informational (with commercial overlap — many searching this are evaluating email security solutions)

Word Count Target: 2,500 words

Key Angle / Hook:

This is your organic traffic volume play. "What is DMARC" gets searched thousands of times per month by business owners who just got told their email isn't configured correctly. The hook: "Your email provider told you to set up DMARC. Your IT guy sent you a 20-page guide. Here's what it actually means in 5 minutes."

Structure: What DMARC does (in one sentence), the BEC attack it prevents, how to check if you have it, what a failing DMARC score means in a security assessment, how to fix it.

Unique angle: Most DMARC guides are written for email admins. This one is written for MSPs explaining it to clients or business owners Googling it at 11pm in a panic.

Title: "Open Port Risks: The 7 Ports That Keep Getting SMBs Hacked (And How to Find Them)"

Primary Keyword: open port security risk business

Est. Monthly Search Volume: 300-500/mo

Keyword Difficulty: ~15 (very low competition — most open port content is written for sysadmins, not SMBs/MSPs)

Secondary Keywords:

dangerous open ports list (~400/mo)
port 3389 RDP exposed internet risk (~200/mo)
how to check open ports business (~150/mo)
SMB attack surface open ports (~80/mo)
exposed RDP port hack risk (~250/mo)

Search Intent: Informational (but high urgency — often searched after reading about an RDP ransomware attack)

Word Count Target: 2,000 words

Key Angle / Hook:

RDP (port 3389) is responsible for the majority of ransomware entry points in SMB environments. SMB owners are searching for this after reading a breach story. The hook: "The FBI reported 3389 and 445 are the top entry points for ransomware. Here's how to check if your business is exposed — right now, in 2 minutes."

List the 7 worst offenders: 3389 (RDP), 22 (SSH), 23 (Telnet), 445 (SMB/Windows fileshare), 21 (FTP), 8080/8443 (alternative HTTP), 5900 (VNC). For each: what it is, why it's dangerous if exposed, what an attacker can do with it, how to check if you're exposed.

Content Production Notes

Quick wins to prioritize first:

Article 1 (SecurityScorecard alternative) — highest buyer intent, start here
Article 6 (data post) — highest link-building potential, run your scans ASAP
Article 11 (DMARC explainer) — highest search volume, easiest to write

Outsource or deprioritize:

Articles 8 and 9 (compliance) require specific knowledge — good use for a ghostwriter with compliance background, or write them at month 2 after you've built content momentum

What you need before publishing:

[ ] ComplianceLayer blog live on compliancelayer.net
[ ] Free domain scan tool on the site (key conversion mechanism — every CTA sends here)
[ ] API documentation page (Articles 4 and 7 reference it)
[ ] Pricing page with MSP-specific language
[ ] For Article 6: raw scan data from 1,000+ real domains

Distribution strategy (per article):

Submit to r/msp, r/sysadmin, r/cybersecurity with authentic discussion framing (not spam)
Post on LinkedIn with 1-paragraph hook + article link
Submit to MSP-focused newsletters: Channel Futures, MSP Mentors, Channelnomics
Reach out to 3-5 MSP bloggers for link exchanges

r/msp Scan Data Post — Draft

ComplianceLayer — Thu, 18 Jun 2026 14:00:02 +0000

r/msp Scan Data Post — Draft

Target: r/msp (Tuesday posting for peak traffic)
Goal: Value-first data drop. No mention of ComplianceLayer in post. Let people ask.
Format: "We scanned X domains and here's what we found"

Post Title Options (A/B test mentally):

"We scanned 200 random SMB domains from r/msp client bases — the results are rough"
"External security posture of 200 random small businesses — data dump inside"
"I built a security scanner and ran it against 200 SMB domains. Here's what's actually exposed."
"Free data: DNS, SSL, and open port analysis of 200 random SMB sites"

Recommendation: Option 3 — "I built" is personal, HN-style, implies founder not vendor.

Post Body Draft:

Title: I built a security scanner and ran it against 200 SMB domains. Here's what's actually exposed.

Hey r/msp,

I've been building an external security scanning tool (DNS health, SSL config, open ports, HTTP headers) and wanted to validate it against real-world SMB infrastructure.

I grabbed 200 random .com domains from small businesses (10-100 employees, various industries) and ran full scans. No client data, no PII — just external posture checks anyone could run.

Here's the summary:

Check	Pass Rate	Notes
Valid SSL cert	87%	13% expired or misconfigured
HTTPS redirect	71%	29% still serving HTTP
HSTS enabled	23%	Most sites vulnerable to downgrade attacks
SPF record	68%	32% spoofable
DMARC record	41%	59% have no email auth policy
DKIM	52%	48% missing
Open SSH (22)	18%	Direct SSH exposure to internet
Open RDP (3389)	7%	Yikes
DNS CAA record	12%	88% allow any CA to issue certs

Worst finding: 7 domains had RDP exposed to the internet with no apparent VPN or bastion. 3 of those also had expired SSL certs — basically broadcasting "we don't have IT."

Best finding: The businesses with proper DNS hygiene (SPF + DMARC + DKIM) almost always had better scores across the board. Email security config is a leading indicator of overall posture.

Takeaways for MSPs:

External posture checks are low-hanging fruit for QBRs — most clients don't know what's exposed
DMARC is still embarrassingly underdeployed
If you're not checking for open RDP/SSH, you might have clients with attack surfaces they don't know about

Happy to share the raw methodology or answer questions about the scanner. Built it for my own use but curious if others find this kind of data useful.

Comment Strategy:

If someone asks "what tool is this?"

Still in beta, building it out. DM me if you want early access — looking for MSPs to test it.

If someone asks for the raw data:

Can share anonymized aggregate stats but not individual domains (don't want to put targets on backs). Happy to run a scan on a domain you control if you want to see the output.

If someone asks about pricing:

Haven't figured that out yet — still validating if this is useful. What would you pay for something like this?

Pre-Post Checklist:

[ ] Actually run 200 scans to have real data (use ComplianceLayer API)
[ ] Build the table with real numbers (not placeholder)
[ ] Have 2-3 interesting outlier stories ready ("one domain had X")
[ ] Prepare DM response template for interested MSPs
[ ] Set up simple landing page or typeform for beta signups

Timing:

Best days: Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday
Best time: 9-11 AM EST (MSP owners checking Reddit with morning coffee)
Avoid: Friday afternoon, weekends (low engagement)

Success Metrics:

Good: 50+ upvotes, 20+ comments, 5+ DMs
Great: 100+ upvotes, 50+ comments, 15+ DMs, crossposted to r/sysadmin
Home run: Featured in MSP newsletter, podcast invite, 30+ beta signups

r/msp Launch Post — DRAFT v1

Last updated: 2026-03-09

Post Title Options (pick one):

Option A (problem-focused):

I built a tool that generates external security reports for client cyber insurance audits — looking for feedback from MSPs

Option B (show-don't-tell):

Scanned 50 MSP client domains to test external attack surface — here's what I found (and the tool I built)

Option C (direct value):

Free tool: Generate a client-ready external security report in 60 seconds — no agent, no install

Recommendation: Option A or B. Option C feels too salesy for r/msp's culture.

Post Body — Draft

Hey r/msp,

I've been lurking here for a while and noticed the same pain point coming up over and over: cyber insurance audits are getting brutal, and clients expect you to produce evidence of their external security posture — not just check boxes on a questionnaire.

The enterprise tools (BitSight, SecurityScorecard, UpGuard) cost $20K+/year. The internal scanners (ConnectSecure, Galactic) require agents or a sales call. And manually checking DNS, SSL, headers, email auth for every client? Nobody has time for that.

So I built something.

What it does:

You enter a domain. It scans:

DNS health — DNSSEC, nameserver config, zone issues
SSL/TLS — cert validity, chain issues, weak ciphers
HTTP security headers — CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, etc.
Email security — SPF, DKIM, DMARC configuration
Open ports — what's exposed to the internet
Subdomain discovery — forgotten assets, shadow IT

60 seconds later, you get a PDF report with a security score and specific remediation steps — written in plain English your client (or their insurance auditor) can understand.

No agent install. No sales call. No per-seat licensing. Just pay per scan.

Why I built it:

I kept hearing from MSP friends that the insurance conversation was getting harder. Insurers want proof — screenshots, reports, evidence. Not "trust me, we've got it covered."

But every tool that does external scanning is either:

Enterprise-priced (UpGuard = $79/vendor/month, BitSight = "call us")
Internal-only (ConnectSecure is great but it's looking at the inside, not what's exposed externally)
Requires a sales call (Galactic Advisors)

I wanted something I could point at a domain and get a professional report in under a minute.

Pricing:

5 free scans — no credit card, just try it
$99/month for 100 scans (~$0.99/scan)
Scales from there if you need more

For context: scanning 50 clients once costs you $49.50 with us. UpGuard would charge ~$3,950/month for the same coverage.

What I'm looking for:

Honest feedback. I'm not here to pitch — I want to know:

Is the report actually useful? Does it surface things you didn't already know? Is it clear enough to hand to a client?
What's missing? Any scans you wish it did that it doesn't?
Would you actually use this? For onboarding? QBRs? Insurance prep?

Drop a comment if you want to try it — I'll DM you a link to run 5 free scans on your clients' domains.

Screenshots:

[INSERT: Screenshot of sample report cover page]

[INSERT: Screenshot of DNS findings section]

[INSERT: Screenshot of email security (SPF/DKIM/DMARC) section]

[INSERT: Screenshot of overall score breakdown]

Thanks for reading. Happy to answer any questions.

— [Your name / handle]

Post Notes:

Tone:

Humble, not salesy
"I built this" not "we're launching"
Asking for feedback, not announcing a product
Show real value (screenshots) before asking for anything

What to prepare before posting:

Screenshots — Scan a real domain (maybe a well-known company or your own test domain), capture the report sections
Landing page — Make sure it's polished, loads fast, explains value in 5 seconds
Free scan flow — Must work flawlessly. No credit card. No friction.
Be ready to reply — First 2 hours are critical. Respond to every comment personally.

Timing:

Best days: Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday
Best time: 9–11 AM EST (MSPs checking Reddit before client calls)
Avoid: Monday (too busy), Friday (checked out), weekends (dead)

Expected responses to prepare for:

"How is this different from [X]?"

Great question. [X] focuses on [internal/requires agents/enterprise pricing]. We're specifically built for external attack surface at MSP-friendly pricing. No agents, no install, pay per scan.

"What about false positives?"

We tune for signal over noise. The report shows what's actually exposed and why it matters — not a panic list of everything that could theoretically be a problem.

"Can I white-label this?"

Yes — you can add your MSP branding to the PDF reports. [If not ready yet: "Coming in the next few weeks."]

"Is there an API?"

Yes, fully API-first. You can integrate scans into your own workflows or PSA.

"$99/month seems cheap, what's the catch?"

No catch. We charge per scan, not per seat or per vendor. If you only scan 50 clients once a month, you're paying for 50 scans. Simple.

Alternate Angle: "I scanned 50 domains, here's what I found"

This version leads with data, not product:

Title: I scanned 50 random SMB domains for external security issues — here's what I found

Body:

Ran an external attack surface scan on 50 SMB domains (mix of clients, prospects, random companies) to see what's actually exposed. Some findings:

72% had SPF records but no DMARC enforcement (p=none or missing entirely)
34% had SSL cert issues (expiring <30 days, weak ciphers, chain problems)
28% were missing basic security headers (no HSTS, no CSP)
18% had unexpected open ports (RDP, old SSH, random high ports)
12% had DNSSEC disabled on domains that should have it

The scariest part? Most of these companies would pass a checkbox insurance questionnaire.

I built the scanner myself — happy to share it if anyone wants to run their own clients through it. Takes about 60 seconds per domain, outputs a PDF you can hand to a client or use for insurance documentation.

Anyone else seeing similar patterns in their client base?

Why this works:

Leads with interesting data, not a pitch
Positions you as someone who discovered something, not someone selling something
Invites discussion before revealing the tool
"Happy to share" is softer than "check out my product"

Final Checklist Before Posting:

[ ] Screenshots prepared (4–5 key report sections)
[ ] Landing page live and polished
[ ] Free scan flow tested end-to-end
[ ] White-label option working (or clear "coming soon")
[ ] API docs live (for the devs who ask)
[ ] Responses drafted for common questions
[ ] Block 2 hours post-launch to reply to every comment
[ ] Have 3–5 friends upvote early (but don't overdo it — r/msp mods are sharp)

This draft is ready to refine once we have real scan screenshots and the product is live.

Reddit Post Drafts — ComplianceLayer Launch

POST #1: r/msp — Pre-launch reputation builder

Title: I scanned 100 MSP websites for basic security issues. The results were rough.

Out of curiosity, I wrote a script that scans websites for common security misconfigurations — SSL, DMARC, SPF, HTTP security headers, and open ports. Ran it against a random sample of MSP company websites (pulled from public directories).

Here's what I found across 100 sites:

SSL/TLS:

23% had certificates expiring within 30 days
11% were still accepting TLS 1.1 connections
4% had no HSTS header

Email security (DNS):

41% had no DMARC record at all
28% had SPF with ~all (softfail) instead of -all (reject)
67% had no DKIM selectors detectable via common selector names

HTTP Headers:

78% were missing Content-Security-Policy
52% were missing X-Content-Type-Options
31% were missing X-Frame-Options

Open ports:

8% had RDP (3389) publicly accessible
14% had non-standard management ports open

The irony: a lot of these are MSPs who are selling security services to their clients, and their own sites have basic misconfigs.

Not trying to name and shame — just thought the data was interesting. Happy to scan anyone's domain in the comments if you want to see your own results.

(This is an organic data post. Do NOT mention ComplianceLayer here. Let people ask what tool you used.)

POST #2: r/msp — Soft launch

Title: Built a free security scanner for client domains — feedback welcome

I've been building internal tools for client security reporting for a while, and kept running into the same problem: security ratings tools like BitSight and SecurityScorecard are overkill (and overpriced) for checking whether a client's basic hygiene is in order.

So I built my own. It checks:

SSL/TLS (expiry, cipher suites, HSTS)
DNS/email security (SPF, DMARC, DKIM, MX)
HTTP security headers (CSP, X-Frame-Options, etc.)
Open ports

Results come back as a scored report (A-F grade per category) with specific remediation steps.

You can use it free here: [compliancelayer.net]

First 10 people to post their domain get a free full scan report as a PDF.

It's API-first so you can automate it — script your client reviews, set up alerting when certs are about to expire, that sort of thing.

What would make this actually useful for your workflow? Trying to understand how MSPs currently handle this kind of check.

POST #3: r/msp — Full launch

Title: ComplianceLayer — security scoring API for MSPs. $0.99/scan. No BitSight contract required.

After a few weeks of beta testing with people from this community, I'm ready to officially launch.

What it is: An API that runs a full infrastructure security assessment on any domain — SSL, DNS/email, HTTP headers, open ports — and returns a scored report (A-F per category, overall letter grade) with actionable remediation steps.

Why I built it: BitSight costs $30K+/year. SecurityScorecard isn't much better. For MSPs who want to run security checks on client domains at scale, there's nothing in the $50-500/month range. ComplianceLayer fills that gap.

Pricing:

Free: 10 scans/month
Starter: $99/month → 100 scans
Pro: $249/month → 500 scans
Agency: $499/month → 1,500 scans

API example:

curl -X POST https://api.compliancelayer.net/v1/scan/full \
  -H "X-API-Key: your_key" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"domain": "clientdomain.com"}'

Returns: scored JSON report in ~15 seconds.

Use cases I've seen from beta users:

Pre-sales security audits for prospects
Monthly automated client reports
Insurance pre-qualification scans
Onboarding new clients (baseline security score)

Live: compliancelayer.net — free tier, no credit card required.

Happy to answer any questions.

POST #4: r/sysadmin — Technical angle

Title: Show r/sysadmin: Security scoring API that checks SSL, DMARC, headers, and ports in one call

Built a REST API that runs a full external security assessment on any domain in one call. Returns scored JSON:

{
  "domain": "example.com",
  "overall_score": 92,
  "overall_grade": "A",
  "modules": {
    "ssl_tls": { "score": 90, "grade": "A", "issues": [...] },
    "dns_email": { "score": 100, "grade": "A", "issues": [] },
    "http_headers": { "score": 85, "grade": "B", "issues": [...] },
    "open_ports": { "score": 100, "grade": "A", "issues": [] }
  },
  "recommendations": [...]
}

Use it for automated security monitoring, CI/CD security checks, client reporting, whatever.

Free tier: 10 scans/month, no card required.

r/msp Launch Post — READY TO POST

Subreddit: r/msp

Best time: Tuesday 9-11 AM ET

Tone: Data-first, genuinely helpful, tool mention is casual at the end

Title Options (pick one)

"I scanned 100 MSP client domains for security issues — here's what I found"
"PSA: Most of your clients probably have F-grade security headers"
"Ran external security scans on 100 small business domains. The results were rough."

Post Body

I built a tool to scan external infrastructure (SSL, DNS security, HTTP headers, open ports) and give each domain an A-F grade. Figured I'd run it against a sample of small business domains to see what the landscape looks like.

Scanned 100 domains. Here's the breakdown:

Grade	Count	%
A	3	3%
B	12	12%
C	31	31%
D	38	38%
F	16	16%

Most common issues:

Missing Content-Security-Policy header — 89% of domains
No DNSSEC — 84% of domains
Missing X-Frame-Options or weak config — 71%
TLS 1.0/1.1 still enabled — 23%
Open ports that shouldn't be exposed — 18%

The A grades were all tech companies with dedicated security teams. Most SMBs had never touched their security headers.

The takeaway: There's a gap here. Most businesses have no idea their external posture is this exposed. For MSPs, this is either a risk (clients getting breached) or an opportunity (upsell security services with real data).

The tool: I've been using this internally, but figured others might find it useful. It's at compliancelayer.net — free tier gives you 10 scans/month, enough to audit a few client domains and see what turns up. No sales pitch, just built it because I needed it.

Happy to answer questions about the methodology or findings.

Comment Strategy

Be ready to respond to:

"What scanners are you using under the hood?" → Be transparent (Shodan, custom TLS checks, header analysis, etc.)
"How is this different from Nessus/Qualys?" → "This is external posture only, not agent-based vuln scanning. Different use case — think of it as what an attacker sees from the outside."
"Can I white-label this for clients?" → "Working on that. DM me if you're interested."
"Pricing?" → "$99/mo for 100 scans, scales from there. Free tier for testing."

Last updated: March 9, 2026

Post Title Options (pick one):

Option A (Direct value):

I built a tool that generates external security reports for client QBRs and insurance audits — looking for feedback

Option B (Problem-first):

Cyber insurance auditors are asking for external security documentation — here's what I built to solve it

Option C (Show don't tell):

I scanned 50 random SMB domains to see what's actually exposed — the results were rough

Recommended: Option A or C — Option B sounds too salesy. A is honest, C is intriguing.

Post Body — DRAFT

[If using Option A title]

Hey r/msp,

I've been lurking here for a while and kept seeing the same pain come up:

Clients need external security posture documentation for cyber insurance renewals
QBR security sections are either manual spreadsheets or enterprise tools that cost $20K+/year
Galactic Advisors requires a sales call, ConnectSecure only does internal scanning

So I built something.

What it does:
You enter a domain. It scans DNS health, SSL configuration, email security (SPF/DKIM/DMARC), exposed ports, HTTP security headers, and a few other things. Takes about 60 seconds. Outputs a scored report with specific findings and remediation steps — PDF you can hand to a client or an insurance auditor.

What it doesn't do:

No agent install
No access to client infrastructure
No internal network scanning (that's what ConnectSecure is for)

It's purely external attack surface — what anyone on the internet can see about your client's domain.

Pricing:
$99/month for 100 scans (~$0.99/scan). I know UpGuard charges $79/vendor/month and BitSight is enterprise-only pricing, so I wanted something that actually makes sense for MSPs managing 20-100 clients.

Why I'm posting:
I'm not here to sell you anything today. I'm offering 5 free scans to anyone who wants to try it and tell me what sucks. Brutal feedback welcome — I'd rather fix problems now than after launch.

If you want to try it, drop a comment or DM me and I'll send you a link.

What I'm specifically looking for feedback on:

Is the report output actually useful, or is it just noise?
What's missing that would make this a no-brainer for QBRs?
Would you actually pay $99/month for this, or is that too high/low?

Thanks for reading. Happy to answer any questions about how it works under the hood.

[If using Option C title]

Hey r/msp,

I've been building an external security scanning tool and needed to test it on real domains. So I grabbed 50 random SMB websites from Google Maps (plumbers, dentists, law firms, accountants — the kinds of businesses you manage) and scanned them.

The results were... not great.

72% had SPF records but no DMARC enforcement (spoofable email)
18% had SSL certs expiring within 30 days
41% were missing basic HTTP security headers (X-Frame-Options, CSP, etc.)
8% had open ports that shouldn't be exposed (RDP, SMB, database ports)
23% had DNS misconfigurations that could cause delivery issues

The scary part: most of these businesses probably think they're "secure" because they have antivirus and a firewall.

What I built:
A tool that scans a domain's external attack surface in about 60 seconds and generates a report with findings + remediation steps. No agent, no install, no access to internal infrastructure. Just what's visible from the internet.

I built it because I kept seeing MSPs here talk about needing documentation for:

Cyber insurance audits (which are getting stricter)
QBR security sections
New client onboarding assessments

And the existing options are either enterprise-priced (BitSight, SecurityScorecard, UpGuard) or require a sales call (Galactic Advisors).

Pricing: $99/month for 100 scans. Works out to about $1/client if you're scanning monthly.

Looking for feedback:
I'm offering 5 free scans to anyone here who wants to test it on their own clients and tell me what's useful vs. what's noise.

Drop a comment or DM if you want access. Roast me if it sucks — I'd rather know now.

Key Elements (don't forget):

Lead with value/problem, not product ✓
Show real data/findings — need to actually run these scans before posting
Acknowledge existing tools — ConnectSecure, Galactic, etc. (shows you know the space)
Free offer with no strings — 5 free scans, no CC required
Ask for specific feedback — gives people a reason to engage
Don't link to the product in the post — let people ask for it (Reddit algorithm likes engagement)
Be in the comments — respond to every comment within the first 2 hours

What NOT to do:

❌ Don't say "we" — you're a solo builder, say "I"
❌ Don't link the URL in the post body — looks like an ad, gets downvoted
❌ Don't post and disappear — engagement in first 2 hours is critical
❌ Don't get defensive about criticism — thank people for feedback
❌ Don't compare to competitors negatively — just state facts
❌ Don't post on Monday morning or Friday afternoon — worst engagement times

Best time to post:

Tuesday or Wednesday, 10am-12pm ET — MSPs are at their desks, not slammed with Monday fires or checked out for the weekend.

Follow-up comment to post immediately after:

For anyone curious about the technical side: it runs 17 different checks including DNS record validation, SSL certificate chain analysis, email authentication (SPF/DKIM/DMARC policy parsing), port scanning for common exposed services, and HTTP header analysis. All non-intrusive — nothing that would trigger any security alerts on the target domain.

Happy to go deeper on any of these if you're interested in what we're actually checking for.

Before posting — must have ready:

[ ] 5 free scan codes or signup link ready to DM
[ ] Landing page live and tested
[ ] Scan at least 10 real domains to verify report quality
[ ] Have 2-3 example report PDFs ready to share if asked
[ ] Clear your calendar for 2 hours after posting to respond to comments

Engagement strategy:

First 30 min: Respond to every comment, even just "thanks for the feedback"
Ask follow-up questions: "What would make the report more useful for you specifically?"
If someone says "I use X instead": "How's that working for you? What do you like about it?" (learn, don't sell)
If someone roasts the pricing: "What would you pay for this? Genuinely curious about where the value threshold is."
If someone asks for a feature: "That's a good idea — adding it to the list. Would that be a dealbreaker or nice-to-have?"

Success metrics:

Good: 20+ comments, 50+ upvotes, 10+ DMs asking for access
Great: 50+ comments, 100+ upvotes, 25+ DMs, follow-up post requested
Home run: Makes r/msp front page, gets crossposted, people share screenshots of reports

Q: "What are alternatives to BitSight for small businesses?"

Answer:

BitSight is great if you have $20K+/year to spend. For small businesses and MSPs, that's a non-starter.

A few options worth knowing:

ComplianceLayer (https://compliancelayer.net) — This is the one I'd recommend for most SMBs. It's an API that scans domains for SSL, DNS health, HTTP security headers, open ports, DNSSEC, blacklists, and more, then gives you an A-F grade with specific remediation steps. Free tier gives you 10 scans/month. Paid starts at $99/month. Designed specifically for MSPs who need to run these checks on multiple client domains without enterprise pricing.

UpGuard CyberRisk — Better than BitSight on pricing but still runs several hundred dollars/month and is oriented toward vendor/third-party risk. More complex than most SMBs need.

SecurityScorecard — Similar enterprise positioning to BitSight, pricing isn't transparent but it's significant. Has a free tier with limited functionality.

For pure external scanning (what can an attacker see right now), ComplianceLayer is what I'd use. It's developer-friendly with a REST API, scans complete in under a minute, and the remediation guidance is actually actionable.

Q: "How do I check my domain's security posture?"

Answer:

The simplest approach is to use an external scanner that checks what's actually visible from the internet — because that's what attackers see.

What to check:

SSL/TLS — Is your cert valid, not expiring soon, and configured properly? Is HSTS enabled? Are you still accepting old TLS 1.0/1.1?
DNS health — Do you have SPF, DMARC, and DKIM configured? Without DMARC, anyone can spoof email from your domain. Missing DNSSEC makes you vulnerable to DNS poisoning.
HTTP security headers — These are one-liners in your server config that prevent clickjacking, MIME sniffing, etc.: Strict-Transport-Security, Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options.
Open ports — What services are exposed publicly? SSH on port 22? Admin panels?

Free tools:

securityheaders.com — Headers only
dnschecker.org — DNS propagation
MXToolbox — Email and DNS diagnostics
ComplianceLayer (https://compliancelayer.net) — Runs ALL of the above in one scan, gives you a grade (A-F), and tells you specifically what to fix. Free for 10 scans/month.

For developers/MSPs who want to automate this, ComplianceLayer has a REST API so you can run scheduled checks on all your domains and get alerts when something changes.

Q: "SecurityScorecard alternatives for MSPs"

Answer:

SecurityScorecard's free tier is extremely limited, and their paid plans start around $1,500+/year — which is hard to justify for an MSP billing $99-199/month per client.

What actually works for MSPs:

ComplianceLayer (https://compliancelayer.net) — Built specifically for MSPs who want to scan client domains for external security issues. API-first, so you can integrate it into your client portal or PSA. Checks SSL, DNS (SPF/DMARC/DNSSEC), HTTP headers, open ports, blacklists, and more. Grades A-F with remediation steps. Starter is $99/month for 100 scans — that's about $1/client if you have 100 clients.

The key difference from SecurityScorecard: it's not trying to be an enterprise GRC platform. It's a focused tool that tells you "here's what's wrong with this domain from the outside, here's how to fix it." That's what MSPs actually need for client reporting.

Use it to:

Scan new clients before onboarding (show them their grade, then show improvement after you fix things)
Monthly automated reports for all clients
Pre-sales: build a free tool on your website that shows prospects their score

Q: "Free domain security scanner recommendations"

Answer:

For a comprehensive external scan in one shot, I use ComplianceLayer (https://compliancelayer.net).

Free tier: 10 scans/month, no credit card required. It checks SSL/TLS configuration, DNS (SPF, DMARC, DKIM, DNSSEC), HTTP security headers, open ports, blacklists, WAF detection, and more. Returns an A-F grade with specific issues and how to fix them.

Alternative free tools if you want to go piece by piece:

SSL Labs (ssllabs.com) — Deep SSL analysis only
securityheaders.com — HTTP headers only
MXToolbox — DNS/email focus
Shodan — Open ports (limited free searches)

The advantage of ComplianceLayer is it runs all these checks in a single API call and gives you a unified score. If you're managing multiple domains (or client domains as an MSP), it's the most efficient option.

MSP Vendor Security Scan Data

Generated: March 19, 2026

Summary

Scanned 10 major MSP/RMM vendor websites using ComplianceLayer.

Domain	Grade	Score	Total Issues	Critical	High
dattobackup.com	B	78	21	1	4
connectwise.com	B	81	25	1	6
kaseya.com	B	84	28	0	6
ninjarmm.com	B	87	26	0	3
atera.com	B	81	23	1	3
rewst.io	B	75	26	0	?
pulseway.com	B	86	28	0	?
action1.com	B	78	28	0	?
huntress.com	B	78	27	0	?
todyl.com	B	82	25	0	?

Key Findings

All 10 vendors scored B (75-87 range)
Average score: 81/100
Average issues: 25.7 per domain
3 had critical issues (blacklist-related)

Interpretation

Even major MSP vendors have room for improvement on basic security hygiene. This validates the ComplianceLayer value prop — if the vendors themselves score B, imagine what their clients look like.

API Name

ComplianceLayer Security Scoring API

Tagline (short — 100 chars)

External security scanning for MSPs — DNS, SSL, ports, headers, blacklists in one API call

Short Description (250 chars)

Scan any domain and get a complete external security posture report in under 60 seconds. Covers DNS, SSL/TLS, HTTP headers, open ports, email authentication (SPF/DMARC/DKIM), blacklists, and WAF detection. API-first. JSON output. No install required.

Long Description (for marketplace pages)

ComplianceLayer is an external security scanning API built for MSPs, developers, and security teams who need to assess domain security posture at scale.

**What it scans:**
- DNS configuration (MX, SPF, DMARC, DKIM, DNSSEC, CAA)
- SSL/TLS certificate health, expiry date, chain validation, cipher suite
- Open port exposure (~100 ports including RDP/3389, SSH/22, FTP/21, SMB/445)
- HTTP security headers (HSTS, X-Frame-Options, CSP, CORS, Referrer-Policy)
- Email authentication completeness (SPF, DKIM, DMARC policy strength)
- Blacklist/blocklist status (35+ lists)
- Subdomain exposure
- WAF detection
- Breach indicator monitoring

**Output:** Structured JSON with overall A–F grade, per-category scores, individual findings with severity (critical/high/medium/low), and remediation steps. Client-ready PDF reports available.

**Use cases:**
- MSPs scanning client domains for cyber insurance audits
- Security teams monitoring external attack surface
- Developers building security dashboards and automation
- vCISOs generating client reports
- DevOps pipelines checking new deployments

**Why ComplianceLayer:**
Enterprise tools like BitSight ($30K+/year) and SecurityScorecard ($26K+/year) require demo calls and annual contracts. ComplianceLayer is $0.99/scan, self-serve, API-first, with no sales call required. Same external checks. 15-20x cheaper.

**Getting started:**
1. Get a free API key at compliancelayer.net (no credit card, 10 free scans)
2. POST your domain to /v1/scan/ — get a job_id back in < 1 second
3. Poll /v1/scan/jobs/{job_id} until status = "complete" (typically 15–60 seconds)
4. Full JSON results + PDF report available immediately

Free tier: 10 scans/month, no credit card required.

First comment (pin this):
Hey PH! 👋

I'm Robert, the founder. I built ComplianceLayer after getting frustrated with security tooling that's either free-but-useless or $30K/year-but-overkill.

The target user: MSPs who want to automate client security reports, developers who want to add security checks to their pipelines, and anyone who wants to know if a domain's security hygiene is actually good or just looks good.

Try the free tier — no credit card. Run a scan on your own domain and see what it finds.

What would make this actually useful for your workflow? Drop it in the comments.

Twitter/X Launch Thread

Tweet 1:

I built a security scoring API because BitSight costs $30K/year and I couldn't justify it for checking client domains.

ComplianceLayer: SSL, DNS/email, HTTP headers, open ports. One API call. $0.99/scan.

🧵 Here's what it finds (real data):

Tweet 2:

Scanned 100 random domains this week.

41% had no DMARC record

23% had certs expiring in < 30 days

78% were missing Content-Security-Policy

8% had RDP publicly accessible

Basic stuff. Most of it fixable in an afternoon.

Tweet 3:

The API response looks like this:
[screenshot of clean JSON with grades]

A-F per category, overall score, specific fixes for each issue.
Takes about 15 seconds per scan.

Tweet 4:

Who's it for:
→ MSPs automating client security reports
→ DevOps teams adding security to pipelines

→ Cyber insurers pre-qualifying domains
→ Anyone who wants to know if their security hygiene is real or just vibes

compliancelayer.net — free tier, no card.
