Quick and easy cloud security

Detect public database exposure in less than 2 minutes

Observa connects to your AWS account with no agents and no software deployment. We detect new public IP addresses and scan them continuously. When a database is found, we send an alert.

2 Minute Setup

Setting up Observa can take as little as 2 minutes. There is no software to install, and no integration calls required.

The app will help you create an IAM role in your AWS account, and that's all it takes to start protecting yourself.

Smart Scanning

When we find a new IP address in your AWS account, we scan it using the Nmap Security Scanner. Rapid scans are the most frequent, and look for the most common database setups.

When a deeper scan later finds that your team uses a less common port, it will automatically be added to future rapid scans.

Founder-led Support

We're a small crew here. A one-man show even. That means you will have access to the most personal support possible.

When you succeed, we succeed.

The "Do one thing well" philosophy runs deep here. We aren't vying for your attention, we just want to get out of your way.

When you hear from us, it's probably important.

Common Questions

Do I have to sign a long-term contract?

For most people: Nope! Our standard plan is completely self-serve. If you have more than 30 public IPs in your cloud accounts, we can work together on an enterprise model that works for you.

What kind of access will you have to my AWS account?

Read-only access to AWS EC2. When you connect an account, we will ask you to create an IAM role for Observa. Don't worry, it's just one click of a button. You can see in that process that we are only requesting EC2 read-only access.

Not only can you delete the connection in Observa, but you can also revoke access by deleting the IAM role in your account. You are in control here.

How can I contact you?

You can email us at contact@observa.com or use the chat widget from within the application after you create an account.
