Lead qualification for security teams

Qualify security leads from public signals

Cyber Lead Scout scans business domains, surfaces visible security gaps, and ranks accounts so your team can focus on the prospects most likely to need security support.

  • Public-facing checks only
  • Built for security-led outbound
  • DNS, TLS, headers, attack surface, and admin exposure checks

What it does

See which companies deserve attention first

Instead of treating every prospect the same, Cyber Lead Scout reviews externally visible security and compliance signals across a list of domains and turns that data into a ranked working list.

The result is a more focused pipeline: fewer generic cold starts, faster preparation for outreach, and a clearer reason for why a target account is worth contacting.

The product is built for teams that already know their target accounts but need a scalable way to identify where weak email security, outdated web hardening, exposed services, or visible control gaps create a real reason to start a conversation.

About

Built for real security outreach work

Built by Optimaize

Cyber Lead Scout is operated by Optimaize and designed for teams that want a more defensible way to qualify security leads than generic firmographic lists or one-off manual checks.

OSINT only

The product focuses on public-facing signals: domain, DNS, certificate, header, and exposure data that can be reviewed without intrusive testing or unauthorized access.

Useful for sales and analysts

The output is structured so account teams can see why a prospect was ranked, while technical stakeholders can still review the underlying findings and artifacts.

Designed for explainability

Instead of hiding everything behind a black-box score, Cyber Lead Scout exposes the key gaps, score breakdown, and lead tier so follow-up can be grounded in visible evidence.

What it checks

Specific signals, not generic enrichment

Email security

Review SPF, DMARC, and DKIM posture to see whether basic anti-spoofing protections are missing or incomplete.

TLS and certificate hygiene

Check certificate validity, expiry timing, and whether the public web presence points to weak or outdated HTTPS handling.

HTTP hardening

Inspect headers such as HSTS and Content-Security-Policy so your team can spot obvious web-hardening gaps quickly.

Attack surface indicators

Look for exposed ports, vulnerable internet-facing services, subdomain sprawl, and admin-panel visibility signals.

Tech and governance clues

Capture visible technology stack and security-communication signals that help explain maturity and likely internal ownership.

Business relevance cues

Combine sector and organization context with external findings so outreach can be framed around likely security pressure, exposure, and operational risk.

Example

What goes in and what comes out

Example input

name,domain,sector,employees
Example Logistics,example-logistics.nl,Logistics,240
Northgrid Energy,northgrid.eu,Energy,1200
Delta Plastics,delta-plastics.com,Manufacturing,85

You can load domains one by one or upload a working list in CSV or JSON format.

Example output

Northgrid Energy
Tier: HOT
Score: 3.5 / 16
Key findings:
- DMARC missing
- HSTS missing
- Admin panel visible
- Exposed services found
- Multiple signs of weak perimeter security

Each account is ranked with a score, lead tier, key gaps, and report artifacts your team can use for follow-up.

How it works

From target list to actionable findings

01

Load target companies

Add domains one by one or upload a working list for your team to review and scan.

02

Run public-signal scans

Check visible email security, certificate hygiene, web hardening, tech stack, exposed services, and other outward-facing indicators.

03

Prioritize follow-up

Review lead tiers, score breakdowns, key findings, and report outputs that help your team decide where to spend time next.

What you get

Outputs your team can act on

Lead tiers

Separate hot, warm, and cool prospects based on visible exposure and readiness signals.

Finding summaries

Understand which issues were observed, which controls appear missing, and why they are relevant to a security conversation.

Scan history

Keep a record of domain lists and prior scan runs so your team can revisit earlier work.

Reports

Open HTML reports, JSON exports, and PDF outputs for internal review or customer-facing follow-up preparation.

Shared workspace

Support collaborative lead review, status tracking, and account-level usage controls.

Repeatable process

Give outbound work a consistent qualification layer instead of relying on ad hoc manual checks and one-off analyst judgment.
