Read the project’s overview, installation instructions and usage examples. The original README is the source of truth.

The most advanced external attack surface assessment you can get for free. Type in your domain. cvENGINE finds everything you expose, then tells you which of today's exploited CVEs can actually hit you, with proof. No license fee. No per-asset pricing. No black box. 100% open source and self-hosted. Attack surface tools find assets. Vulnerability scanners find flaws. Threat feeds find CVEs. cvENGINE runs all three as one continuous loop and hands you a verdict instead of a pile of alerts. It answers the question that matters: of everything exploited today, what do I have exposed? Run a Sentinel on any machine and cvENGINE scans through it. Put one outside your network to see what the internet sees. Put one inside to reach what no outside scanner can: declare a private range, and the Sentinel finds the live hosts in it and runs the same nmap, naabu, Nuclei, TLS, UDP,…
