EdgeIQ Labs

EdgeIQ Labs is a comprehensive cybersecurity monitoring and automation platform designed specifically for small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) that need enterprise-grade security without the complexity and cost of a full Security Operations Center (SOC). The platform provides a practical, business-first approach to security monitoring with clear next steps, not noisy dashboards or alert spam. EdgeIQ Labs offers a wide array of tools including free instant scanners for SSL certificates, TLS versions, security headers, XSS posture, subdomain enumeration, and threat detection. The platform also features live production apps such as the Security Dashboard for real-time scanning and finding tracking, PhishSim Training for phishing simulation and automated security awareness training, EdgeIQ Pulse for always-on weekly security monitoring, and EdgeIQ Inbox Shield for email security grading. Built with a privacy-first approach, all free scans are never stored, and the platform is powered by Cloudflare with Stripe-secured payments. EdgeIQ Labs helps teams find risks fast and fix them without enterprise-level complexity, offering simple onboarding, real human support, and clear priorities. The platform is built for SOC 2 compliance and includes features like action-focused reporting with monthly summaries and prioritized fixes, making it an ideal solution for small teams that want security coverage without needing a dedicated security team. With over 142,000 scans completed, EdgeIQ Labs provides a robust ecosystem of over 40 individual security tools, managed monitoring bundles, and automation services.

Free Instant Security Scanner Suite

EdgeIQ Labs provides a comprehensive suite of free instant security scanners that allow users to check any website's security posture in approximately five seconds without requiring an account. The suite includes an SSL Checker, Headers Analyzer, XSS Quick Scan, Subdomain Enumeration, DAST Scan, API Security Scanner, CSPM Scan, Threat Alerts, Port Scanner, Container Scan, DNS Lookup, WHOIS Lookup, Compliance Scan, Policy Builder, ASM Dashboard, and CVE Lookup. Each scan delivers immediate, actionable results such as SSL certificate validity, TLS version status, security header completeness, reflected parameter analysis, and exposed subdomain counts. This feature enables businesses to see exactly what an attacker would see, empowering them to identify and address vulnerabilities proactively.

EdgeIQ Pulse Always-On Monitoring

EdgeIQ Pulse is an always-on security monitoring service that automatically scans registered domains on a weekly or daily basis and sends email notifications when any security changes are detected. The free tier covers one domain with six security checks and a weekly digest report, while the Pro tier expands to five domains with daily scanning across all 13 scanners. The Business tier supports up to 20 domains and includes Slack alerts for real-time notifications. This feature ensures that businesses maintain continuous visibility into their security posture without manual intervention, allowing them to respond instantly to any configuration drift, certificate expiration, or new vulnerabilities that emerge.

PhishSim Training and Awareness

PhishSim Training is a phishing simulation and automated security awareness training platform that automatically assigns security modules to employees who click on simulated phishing emails. The platform offers three pricing tiers: Starter at $29 per month for Phishing 101 training, Pro at $79 per month for access to all three training modules, and Agency at $149 per month for multi-client management capabilities. This feature transforms security awareness from a manual, infrequent exercise into an automated, continuous learning process that directly addresses the human factor in cybersecurity. It helps businesses reduce their risk of successful phishing attacks by educating employees through realistic simulations and targeted training.

EdgeIQ Inbox Shield Email Security

EdgeIQ Inbox Shield grades a domain's email security posture by analyzing SPF, DMARC, DKIM, and BIMI configurations, providing an A through F grade with actionable findings. The free tier offers an instant scan plus a weekly digest, while the Pro tier at $15 per month includes daily monitoring and DKIM rotation alerts. This feature is critical for preventing email spoofing, phishing, and domain impersonation attacks. By continuously monitoring email authentication protocols, Inbox Shield ensures that businesses maintain proper email security configurations and receive immediate alerts when any changes could compromise their email deliverability or security.

Small Business Security Auditing

Small business owners with limited technical resources can use EdgeIQ Labs to conduct comprehensive security audits of their web properties and digital assets. Using the free scanner suite, they can instantly check SSL certificates, TLS versions, security headers, and subdomain exposure without needing specialized security expertise. The platform provides clear, prioritized findings and actionable next steps, allowing business owners to understand their risk posture and address vulnerabilities methodically. The action-focused reporting with monthly summaries eliminates alert fatigue and provides a straightforward path to improving security every week, making enterprise-level security accessible to businesses without dedicated IT security staff.

Managed Service Provider Client Monitoring

Managed Service Providers (MSPs) and agencies can leverage EdgeIQ Labs to monitor multiple client environments efficiently. The PhishSim Training Agency tier at $149 per month supports multi-client management, allowing MSPs to deploy phishing simulations and security awareness training across their entire client base from a single dashboard. The EdgeIQ Pulse Business tier with 20-domain monitoring and Slack alerts enables MSPs to maintain continuous visibility into all client domains and receive instant notifications of security changes. This consolidated approach reduces operational overhead while ensuring that every client receives consistent, professional-grade security monitoring and incident response capabilities.

Compliance and Audit Preparation

Organizations preparing for SOC 2 compliance or other regulatory audits can use EdgeIQ Labs to continuously monitor and document their security controls. The platform's built-in compliance scanner and policy builder tools help businesses map their security posture against common compliance frameworks. The Security Dashboard provides a score trend chart and finding tracker that demonstrates ongoing security improvements over time, which is valuable evidence for auditors. The monthly reports with prioritized fixes show a systematic approach to vulnerability management, helping organizations demonstrate due diligence and continuous improvement in their security program during formal audits.

Incident Response and Vulnerability Remediation

Security teams can use EdgeIQ Labs to accelerate their incident response and vulnerability remediation workflows. The platform's instant scanners provide rapid reconnaissance capabilities, allowing teams to assess the scope of a potential breach or vulnerability quickly. The finding tracker distinguishes between open, fixed, and acknowledged findings, enabling teams to track remediation progress systematically. The EdgeIQ Pulse monitoring service alerts teams immediately when new vulnerabilities or configuration changes are detected, reducing the window of exposure. This systematic approach helps small security teams prioritize their efforts on the most critical vulnerabilities first, using the platform's risk scoring and actionable reporting to guide their remediation activities.

What is the difference between the free scanners and the paid monitoring services?

The free scanners provide instant, one-time security checks for any domain without requiring an account or payment. These scans cover SSL certificates, TLS versions, security headers, XSS posture, subdomain enumeration, and threat detection, with results delivered in approximately five seconds. The paid monitoring services, such as EdgeIQ Pulse and EdgeIQ Inbox Shield, provide continuous, automated scanning on a weekly or daily basis with email or Slack alerts when security changes are detected. Paid services also include persistent history, score trending, finding tracking, and more comprehensive scanner coverage across all 13 checkers.

How does EdgeIQ Labs ensure the privacy of scanned data?

EdgeIQ Labs operates on a privacy-first principle where all free scans are never stored on the platform's servers. The platform is powered by Cloudflare for additional security and uses Stripe-secured payments for any transactions. Users can perform unlimited free scans without creating an account, ensuring that their scanning activity remains anonymous. For paid monitoring services, data is stored securely to provide persistent history and trend analysis, but users retain control over their data and can manage their account settings to delete information as needed.

Can EdgeIQ Labs replace a full Security Operations Center (SOC)?

EdgeIQ Labs is designed to provide security coverage for small teams without needing a full SOC, but it is not a complete replacement for all SOC functions. The platform excels at automated monitoring, vulnerability scanning, phishing simulation, and email security grading, which covers many common security operations tasks. However, organizations with advanced threat hunting, forensic analysis, or 24/7 incident response requirements may still need additional resources. EdgeIQ Labs serves as an excellent foundation for SMB security programs, providing the visibility and automation that small teams need to manage their security posture effectively.

How long does it take to set up EdgeIQ Labs monitoring services?

EdgeIQ Labs is designed for simple onboarding with a setup kickoff typically completed within 24 hours for paid services. The free scanners require no setup at all, as users can simply enter a domain and receive instant results.
