Can I export my attack surface results?

Users can export portions of the attack surface to CSV. Currently we support a full report in HTML format. This full report can be saved as HTML (Ctrl+s or Cmd+s in most browsers) or 'printed' as PDF (Ctrl+p or Cmd+p).

Can multiple drones be displayed on a single map?

This feature is in the works.

At the time reports and partial exports are the only way to share drone data. This will be improved soon with team functionality.

Do I have the ability to search for specific information within my results?

Not at this time.

Can I import bulk drone targets via spreadsheet?

Yes, via the CSV export.

Are my sessions SSL encrypted?

All payment transactions are SSL encrypted. All other data on ThreatAgent.com is also SSL encrypted excluding a few PNGs from Google Maps (which causes Apple Safari to hide the SSL lock icon).

Not at this time. This feature is in consideration for a future release.

What reporting options are available? Are these customizable?

Report customization is on the way.

Do you offer any trial memberships?

There is a free option available. Free plans are limit the amount of results displayed.

You say that the humans are all affiliated with the target on LinkedIn. Does this list also include former employees?

Since humans are found using public data, it's not unlikely to find former employees whom haven't updated their profile.

If I don’t use all of my missions in a given month, can I save them for later?

There are no roll over missions at the moment. The primary reason is that hosting costs, APIs, etc. are fixed cost so plans are fixed at the moment. This could change over time.
