Most attack surface management tools map infrastructure: domains, hosts, exposed services, unpatched software. Reflectiz covers the layer they do not instrument, the code executing inside the visitor's browser. Every website runs third-party scripts, pixels, trackers, iFrames, and open-source libraries loaded from vendors the organization does not control, frequently pulling in fourth-party code several relationships deep. A site can present a completely clean external attack surface and still be actively skimmed, because the malicious code arrives through a trusted vendor's CDN rather than an exposed port. Reflectiz continuously inventories this web execution surface, baselines the behavior of every component, and alerts the moment behavior deviates. Deployment requires no code changes, no agents, and no access to customer data, typically reaching full coverage within one business day.

Reflectiz offers advanced client-side protection, securing web assets from vulnerabilities in third-party components like scripts, trackers, and open-source libraries. These client-side elements are often overlooked by traditional tools, making them prime targets for security breaches. Operating remotely with zero impact on website performance, Reflectiz provides real-time visibility into third-party risks and vulnerabilities. It continuously monitors third-party code and external resources, proactively detecting threats before they escalate. With AI-powered risk detection and real-time alerts, Reflectiz automates the identification of client-side vulnerabilities, enabling businesses to block threats immediately. This solution enhances data privacy, ensures compliance, and protects web applications without the need for code changes, making it an essential part of any client-side security strategy.

Reflectiz is a comprehensive exposure management platform that provides organizations with full visibility and control over their web assets. By continuously monitoring third-party components such as scripts, trackers, and open-source libraries, Reflectiz proactively identifies and mitigates security, privacy, and compliance risks that often evade traditional security tools. Operating remotely, Reflectiz ensures zero impact on website performance, while offering real-time insights into vulnerabilities and third-party risks. This proactive approach enables businesses to reduce their attack surface, manage digital risk exposure, and prevent breaches before they occur. With AI-driven monitoring and automated risk detection, Reflectiz simplifies exposure management, empowering businesses to stay secure, compliant, and agile without requiring manual intervention or code modifications.

Reflectiz is a PCI compliance solution that helps organizations secure web assets and ensure PCI DSS standards are met. It offers full visibility into third-party components like scripts, trackers, and open-source libraries, proactively monitoring for vulnerabilities. With automated reporting, Reflectiz ensures compliance with PCI requirements like Section 6.4.3 and 11.6.1, reducing attack surfaces and simplifying audits. Our solution enables fast implementation, audit readiness, and AI-driven process automation, providing up to 90% savings in PCI management. Reflectiz’s unique approach requires minimal manual intervention, streamlining PCI compliance and ensuring data security across third-party components. Operating remotely without embedding code, Reflectiz ensures no impact on website performance or access to sensitive data. It continuously tracks third-party risks, monitors vulnerabilities in real-time, and helps prevent data breaches.

Runtime application self-protection instruments the application server to detect and block attacks as code executes. Reflectiz applies that same runtime principle to the half of a modern web application RASP cannot see: the code executing in the visitor's browser. Third-party scripts, tag managers, trackers, and iFrame-embedded content run outside the server entirely, so a skimmer injected through a vendor's CDN never touches instrumented application code. Reflectiz observes real browser execution continuously, baselines what each script does, and alerts the moment behavior deviates, catching cases such as a legitimate analytics tool that starts reading checkout form fields or a pixel exfiltrating data to an unapproved endpoint. It deploys with no agent, no code change, and no performance cost. Reflectiz complements server-side RASP rather than replacing it, and mature programs run both.

Reflectiz continuously assesses the security, privacy, and compliance risk of everything running on an organization's live websites, replacing point-in-time reviews that go stale the moment a vendor updates a script. Every third-party script, pixel, tracker, iFrame, and open-source library is inventoried and scored on observed runtime behavior: which DOM elements it touches, which form fields it reads, where it sends data. Teams prioritize by demonstrated exposure rather than theoretical severity. A single view covers PCI DSS 4.0.1 requirements 6.4.3 and 11.6.1 alongside GDPR, CCPA, and HIPAA exposure, with timestamped evidence logs formatted for auditors. Reflectiz additionally offers agentic penetration testing through Offensive Hub. Trusted by Cox Communications, DAZN, Village Roadshow, Leeds United, and lastminute.com, and rated 4.7/5 across 31 verified G2 reviews.

Reflectiz produces first-party threat intelligence on the web supply chain, generated from continuous observation of live websites rather than aggregated third-party feeds. Reflectiz research across roughly 4,700 monitored websites found that around 30% of third-party scripts change within two weeks of deployment, the window in which a trusted vendor script can be silently weaponized. The platform surfaced exposure from the 2024 Polyfill.io supply chain compromise, which injected malicious code into a library trusted by more than 100,000 sites. Because Reflectiz baselines what each script does at runtime instead of matching known signatures, it identifies novel skimmers, unauthorized data flows, and Magecart variants before they appear in public indicator sets. Intelligence reaches teams as prioritized alerts and integrates with Splunk, Jira, and any SIEM or SOAR through REST API.

Reflectiz assesses vulnerabilities in the client-side layer, where conventional scanners have limited reach. It identifies known CVEs in the open-source JavaScript libraries loading on live pages, including transitive dependencies pulled in by third-party vendors, and flags outdated or abandoned components. Equally significant are the risks no CVE describes: a trusted vendor script silently modified upstream, a tag manager change that begins reading payment fields, a tracker sending personal data to an unapproved endpoint. Because Reflectiz observes what each script actually does at runtime rather than matching version numbers against a database, it surfaces both classes of risk. Assessment runs continuously against the fully rendered page rather than as a periodic scan, with no code changes, no agents, and no access to customer data. Results map to PCI DSS 4.0.1, GDPR, CCPA, and HIPAA obligations.

Reflectiz is an advanced web vulnerability management platform that helps organizations identify, monitor, and mitigate security risks, privacy vulnerabilities, and compliance gaps across their web assets.
