urlscan.io consultants

urlscan.io is a web security service that scans and analyses URLs for malicious content, phishing attempts, and suspicious behaviour. When you submit a URL, urlscan.io loads the page in a sandboxed browser, captures a screenshot, records all HTTP transactions, and analyses the DOM, JavaScript, and network requests. The result is a detailed report showing exactly what a URL does when visited.

Integrating urlscan.io with n8n lets you automate URL security checks as part of a broader workflow. You can scan URLs extracted from incoming emails before employees click them, automatically check links submitted through web forms, or build a phishing detection pipeline that scans suspicious URLs and alerts your security team when threats are identified.

Practical use cases include scanning all URLs in inbound customer emails for phishing before they reach support agents, checking URLs submitted through contact forms for malicious content, and running periodic scans of URLs found in your web application logs to detect compromised links.

For Australian businesses subject to data protection and cybersecurity obligations, automated URL scanning adds a practical layer of defence without requiring manual review of every link. At Osher, we build security automation workflows that connect scanning tools with notification and response systems. Our BOM data pipeline project demonstrated how automated data validation and processing can protect downstream systems from bad data. If your organisation handles sensitive data and wants to automate parts of your security workflow, our system integration services can connect urlscan.io with your email, chat, and alerting tools.
