SecuriSky vs Socket Security

Socket protects you from malicious packages entering your codebase. SecuriSky protects your live deployed app from runtime vulnerabilities that supply-chain tools can never see — because they happen after deployment.

TL;DR — Complementary tools. Use both for complete coverage.
SecuriSkyBlack-box runtime

Scans your live deployed URL from the outside — exactly like an attacker would. Detects exposed secrets, open databases, missing headers, CORS bypasses, and admin routes without auth. No source code needed. 2 minutes.

Best for: vibe-coded apps, pre-launch checks, continuous runtime monitoring

Socket SecuritySupply chain

Analyzes npm, PyPI, and other package registries for malicious packages, typosquatting, and suspicious behaviour — before they enter your repo. Integrates as a GitHub App that checks every PR installing new dependencies.

Best for: supply chain protection, blocking malicious npm installs, open-source auditing

When to use each tool

Use SecuriSky when...

  • You built your app with Cursor, Lovable, Bolt, v0, or Replit
  • You want a pre-launch security check in under 2 minutes
  • You need to verify your live app isn't leaking secrets right now
  • You want to check CORS, headers, admin exposure post-deploy
  • You need UX, SEO, performance, and security in a single report
  • You want AI fix prompts to paste directly into Cursor Agent
  • You want continuous monitoring with Slack/email alerts

Use Socket when...

  • You need to block malicious npm or PyPI packages before install
  • You're worried about supply chain attacks (XZ utils-style)
  • You want automatic PR checks every time a dependency is added
  • You maintain open-source packages and need reputation monitoring
  • Your security policy requires vetting every new dependency
  • Your CI/CD pipeline needs automated supply chain gating

The runtime gap Socket cannot fill

Socket is excellent at stopping bad packages from entering your supply chain — but it has zero visibility into your running production app. Your Stripe key could be in the client-side JS bundle. Your /api/admin/users could be publicly accessible. Your Supabase table could have RLS disabled. Socket will never know — because all of these happen at deployment time, not package install time. SecuriSky catches these in under 2 minutes by scanning your live URL.

Scan your live app in under 2 minutes

No source code, no CLI, no setup. Paste your URL and get a full security + UX + SEO + performance health score with AI fix prompts.
