Here you can find the answers to the most common questions we receive from people like yourself.
Why are you scanning my server?
In order to better understand the technology landscape, we identify all the services running on the internet. This helps us understand where to focus our efforts in a way that makes the internet a safer place and gives users a peace of mind.
Are your scans intrusive or invasive?
No, we only listen to what your server is already communicating to the world in a public way similar to how search engines work. We never interact with your servers in a way that can cause downtime, interference or disruption.
Can I opt-out?
Of course! While you may not be interested in the research we are doing, we encourage you to partner with the millions of other companies in creating a safer internet by deciding not to opt out. If you decide you still would like to, please click the Opt-out link at the top of the page and we will help you begin this process.
