A method, system and computer-usable medium for automating the assessment of security vulnerabilities associated with a user module via a user module assessment operation. The user assessment operation includes receiving a request from a user module via an edge device; determining whether the request includes a persistent session cookie; determining whether the user module should be assessed to detect security vulnerabilities; resetting information contained in the persistent session cookie when the user module should be accessed to detect security vulnerabilities; redirecting the user module for assessment; and, performing an assessment of the user module to detect possible security vulnerabilities.
