1. Discover. See every asset across your entire attack surface—from cloud environments to every API endpoint with auto-discovery capabilities.

• Cloud deployed with Kubernetes/Helm and Terraform
• Main frameworks used: Ruby On Rails (API only)/Sinatra; gin for Golang
• Main databases used: PostgreSQL, Elasticsearch, Riak/S3, Tarantool, and Redis
