# openscan

> Use this tool when you need to scan binaries and scripts for malicious patterns to ensure their safety before execution. Openscan solves the problem of potential security threats by identifying harmful code, providing a secure interface to analyze inputs such as executable files and scripts, and outputting vulnerability reports. It is ideal for use cases where trust in unknown or unverified code is a concern, such as in software development, system administration, or security testing.
