## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are web data automations that power AI and operations. They run on the Apify platform to scrape websites, process data, connect APIs, and automate workflows.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

- **AI agents and MCP clients** — the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md) at `https://mcp.apify.com` (remote, streamable HTTP, OAuth on first use).
- **Agentic workflows and local Actor development** — [Agent Skills](https://apify.com/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json) with the [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): `npm install -g apify-cli`, then `apify login`.
- **JavaScript/TypeScript projects** — the official [JS/TS client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): `npm install apify-client`.
- **Python projects** — the official [Python client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): `pip install apify-client`.
- **Any other language** — the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

***

### What Is Infosec-Jobs.net?

Infosec-Jobs.net is a specialized job marketplace focused exclusively on information security and cybersecurity careers. It aggregates security engineer, analyst, architect, and compliance roles from leading tech companies and security firms worldwide. Manually searching, filtering, and collecting job data across multiple pages is tedious — the **Infosec-Jobs Search Scraper** automates this workflow, delivering structured security job data ready for analysis.

***

### Overview

The **Infosec-Jobs Search Scraper** performs keyword-based searches on Infosec-Jobs.net and extracts detailed job listings across multiple pages. It is ideal for:

### Input Format

The scraper accepts a JSON configuration object:

```json
{
  "keyword": "security engineer",
  "pages": 1,
  "max_items_per_url": 200
}
```

#### Input Parameters

| Parameter | Type | Description | Example |
|---|---|---|---|
| `keyword` | string | Search term to query on Infosec-Jobs.net | `"security engineer"`, `"penetration tester"`, `""` (leave blank for all jobs) |
| `pages` | integer | Number of search results pages to scrape | `1`, `5`, `10` |
| `max_items_per_url` | integer | Maximum job listings to collect per page | `100`, `200` |

#### Usage Tips

- **Empty keyword:** Leave `"keyword": ""` to scrape all current listings without filtering
- **Multi-page scraping:** Set `pages: 5` to collect listings across 5 pages (typically 20-50 jobs per page)
- **Result limits:** Adjust `max_items_per_url` based on your needs (max recommended: 200)

> **Example:** To collect all penetration tester roles from the first 3 pages, use `keyword: "penetration tester"` and `pages: 3`.

### How to Use

1. **Define your search** — Enter a keyword (e.g., "SIEM engineer", "security architect") or leave blank for all roles.
2. **Set page count** — Specify how many results pages to scrape (each page typically contains 20–50 listings).
3. **Configure limits** — Set `max_items_per_url` to control the total number of listings (recommended: 100–200).
4. **Run the scraper** — Initiate the actor and monitor the progress.
5. **Export & analyze** — Download results as JSON, CSV, or Excel for further processing.

**Troubleshooting:**

- If results are limited, increase `pages` or `max_items_per_url`.
- Salary fields may be empty if employers do not disclose compensation.
- Use `Is Remote: true` filtering in post-processing to isolate fully remote roles.

***

### Use Cases & Business Value

- **Salary benchmarking:** Compare compensation ranges across companies and experience levels
- **Market intelligence:** Track cybersecurity hiring demand by region, skill, and company size
