Stop Checking 5 Tools Before Launch: Instant Web Security Audits with Copy-Paste Fixes

Shipping a web app is exciting — until you remember all the small security checks you still need to verify before sharing the link publicly:

Is the SSL/TLS chain valid and redirecting properly?
Are Strict-Transport-Security, Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and Permissions-Policy actually set?
Are SPF, DKIM, and DMARC configured so your domain isn't easily spoofed?
Is DNSSEC enabled, and did any sensitive files (.env, .git, backup paths) accidentally stay exposed?

Usually, checking all of this means opening five separate tabs and then spending another 20 minutes searching for the exact Nginx or Cloudflare snippet to fix what failed.

That’s why I built SurfaceScan
.

What SurfaceScan Does in One Scan

Instant Passive Security Grade (A+ to F)
Enter any domain and get a clean breakdown across transport security, HTTP headers, DNS & email protection, and exposed attack surface — with zero agent installation and zero setup.

Copy-Paste Remediation for 10 Platforms
Instead of vague warnings, every failed check gives you ready-to-use configuration snippets for Nginx, Apache, Cloudflare, Caddy, Vercel, Netlify, Next.js, Express, and more.

Verified Security Certificates & Trust Badges
Domain owners can verify ownership via a standard DNS TXT record to unlock a public, verifiable security certificate page, a downloadable PDF certificate, and a live embeddable SVG badge.
