Strix Security provides a SaaS network vulnerability scanning platform that allows authorized users to discover hosts, identify security vulnerabilities, match findings against CVE databases, and execute remediation actions on networks they own or are authorized to scan.

3. Authorized use — critical requirement

You may only use Strix Security to scan networks and systems that you:

• Own outright, or
• Have explicit written authorization from the owner to scan

Unauthorized scanning of networks or systems is strictly prohibited and may violate laws including the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act (CFAA), the UK Computer Misuse Act, and similar laws in other jurisdictions.

You are solely responsible for ensuring you have proper authorization before running any scan. Strix Security is not liable for any unauthorized scanning performed using our platform.
