IP Addresses for Domain Scanning
Aikido uses dedicated IP addresses to perform scanning of your domains (DAST). To prevent connectivity issues, rate limiting, or security blocks, add these IPs to your firewall’s allowlist or other security software. After this, rescan your domains to confirm connectivity.
Looking for Aikido Pentest IP addresses? They are listed on IP Addresses for Pentest.
To use 'Fetch OpenAPI by URL', you must also add the Code & Container scanning IP addresses.
Which IPs should you allowlist?
Domain scanning traffic comes from the region where your Aikido workspace is hosted, not from the region where your application runs. Check the URL you use to log in to Aikido, then allowlist that region's IPs:
| Aikido URL | Region | IP list |
|---|---|---|
| app.aikido.dev | EU | EU-based IP addresses |
| app.us.aikido.dev | US | US-based IP addresses |
| app.aikidogov.us | FedRAMP | FedRAMP IP addresses |
| app.au.aikido.dev | AU | AU-based IP addresses |
| app.me.aikido.dev | ME | ME-based IP addresses |
If you log in at app.aikido.dev, scanning uses EU IPs, even when your endpoints are hosted in the US. Allowlisting only US IPs in that case will cause scans to fail.
If you log in at app.aikidogov.us, scanning uses FedRAMP IPs. Commercial US IPs (app.us.aikido.dev) will not work for FedRAMP workspaces.

Request Headers
All HTTP requests originating from Aikido scans (except for Front-end scans) include a specific User-Agent header. This can be used to identify the DAST traffic or for allowlisting purposes:
User-Agent: aikido-scan-agent/1.0
For instructions on whitelisting IP addresses with third-party providers, refer to the following resources:
- Cloudflare WAF
- Cloudflare Turnstile does not support allowlisting specific client IP addresses. If you need to bypass Turnstile for Aikido scanning traffic, you must do it in your application code. We recommend bypassing only when both conditions are true:
- The request originates from an Aikido IP range
- The request includes the
aikidoUser Agent in headers as described above
- Cloudflare Turnstile does not support allowlisting specific client IP addresses. If you need to bypass Turnstile for Aikido scanning traffic, you must do it in your application code. We recommend bypassing only when both conditions are true:
- Azure WAF
- AWS WAF.
- For WAFs behind Application Load Balancers or CloudFront, your WAF should check the last IP address in the
X-Forwarded-Forheader.
- For WAFs behind Application Load Balancers or CloudFront, your WAF should check the last IP address in the
- Vercel WAF
- Use the "bypass" action for trusted IPs
