Website security audit

Website security audit for pre-launch SaaS

A website security audit before launch should cover HTTPS, security headers, secret exposure, auth surfaces, and trust pages — not just a vulnerability CVE scan. Launch Auditor maps these to 340+ automated checks.

One more link level — good for sites with a few sections. Your Free plan scans up to 25 pages per scan.

Supabase backend testing (optional)

Provide Supabase credentials to run deeper RLS and cross-tenant isolation probes. Secrets are encrypted at rest and never appear in scan reports.

Expand to add optional Supabase credentials.

Core website security audit checklist

  • HTTPS everywhere with valid certificates on apex and www

  • HSTS, CSP, X-Frame-Options / frame-ancestors, and Referrer-Policy

  • No API keys, tokens, or debug endpoints in public JavaScript

  • Login, signup, and password reset reachable and not leaking stack traces

  • Admin or dashboard routes not indexed when they should be private

  • Privacy Policy and Terms linked where you collect data or take payment

How Launch Auditor differs from a CVE scanner

  • Focuses on the public launch surface founders actually ship

  • Combines security with SEO, performance, a11y, and AI visibility

  • Issues a go/no-go clearance instead of an unbounded findings dump

  • Exports fix prompts for Cursor, Claude Code, and AI builders

FAQ

Website security audit questions

What is a website security audit?

A website security audit reviews how a live site protects visitors and data — TLS, HTTP security headers, exposed secrets, auth and form surfaces, and related trust signals — ideally before you drive launch traffic.

Is a website security scanner enough before Product Hunt?

Security alone is not enough. Pair it with SEO metadata, legal pages, and mobile UX checks so first visitors do not bounce on unfinished launch surfaces.
