CodeShield operates strictly non-destructive, rate-limited penetration testing sweeps. Probes are designed to identify configuration flaws, missing headers, outdated protocols, and exposed interfaces without degrading service availability or corrupting underlying databases. Denial of Service (DoS/DDoS) payloads are strictly prohibited and disabled in our engine.
