Could you build this?

Partial A web dashboard is easy to build, but building and maintaining accurate, non-intrusive external attack surface monitoring (port scanning, TLS analysis, CVE mapping, DNS audits) requires dedicated security tooling and scanner infra.

What it would actually take: Requires a worker queue (Temporal/Celery) running sandboxed network reconnaissance tools (like Nmap, ProjectDiscovery tools like Nuclei/Subfinder, and testssl.sh) safely without getting IP-banned, matched against CVE/NVD databases, and aggregating results into a vulnerability posture model.
