Show HN: I made a free web app security platform (ex-StarCraft pro turned dev)

I'm an ex-StarCraft II pro who retired back in 2014 and have been developing since then.

I made a free web app security platform for vibe coders and small businesses/startups. WraithScan (https://wraithscan.com) has a double meaning... as you can guess cloaked wraiths + comsat scanning but also is a web scanner for detecting attack vectors for your web app.

Cloaked wraiths are seen as cheesy these days, right?

Anyways, it tests for the following vulnerabilities: - SQL injection - XSS - Open redirects - Exposed .env / backup files - Misconfigured CORS - Misconfigured SSL/TLS settings - Insecure headers - Insecure cookies - Directory listings - Common CVEs - and more

There's a paid tier for some graybox testing (and blackbox on the way) but still relatively cheap.

Anyways, please check it out. Open to all roasts, feedback, comments! Thank you!
