Quick Start
Run your first security scan in under 5 minutes.
This guide walks you through running your first Barrion security scan. You can start scanning immediately -- no account required.
Run a Guest Scan
Step 1: Navigate to Barrion
Open barrion.io in your browser. The scan input is available directly on the homepage.
Step 2: Enter Your Website URL
Type or paste the URL of the website you want to scan. Barrion accepts any public-facing URL (e.g., https://example.com).
Step 3: Start the Scan
Click the scan button. Barrion will begin crawling your site and running security checks. Results stream in real time via server-sent events, so you can watch findings appear as they are detected.
A typical scan takes between 30 seconds and a few minutes depending on the number of pages crawled.
Step 4: Review Your Security Score
Once the scan completes, you will see:
- Security score -- A numeric score from 0 to 100 with a letter grade (A through F).
- Vulnerability summary -- A breakdown of findings by severity: Critical, High, Medium, and Low.
- Category results -- Findings organized across 10 security categories including TLS, Headers, CSP, CORS, Cookies, and more.
Step 5: View Recommendations
Select any finding to see:
- A description of the vulnerability and why it matters.
- The current value detected on your site.
- Specific remediation steps to fix the issue.
Guest scans are limited to 2 scans per day and crawl up to 3 pages per scan. Only 18 of the 35+ security checks are available without an account.
