Introduction
Shopping online has become a great convenience for Internet users, no need to
drive to a store but with that comes additional concerns. Every Internet shopper
considers the security of online transactions a top priority. While solutions
like SSL certificates keep the client-server communication safe, they do not
keep the server or the information on it safe. This is where Security Scanner
steps in. Watching over your website, testing known attacks and providing email
and cell SMS notices to keep you alerted.
Customer Confidence
You already do your best to keep customers happy and secure during their on-line
shopping experience with SSL certificates. Now take your business to the next
level with a security badge you can proudly display on your site.
Find holes before they do
The best way to secure your website is to literally attack it just like a potential
hacker would. In this regard Security Scanner organizes this process to a
daily task so your website is always tested against the latest known exploits. Ask
ask a seasoned web designer and they will tell you that over the years they have
seen sites attacked due to the use of old software or insecure configuration settings.
Fast Response
Security Scanner scans your server every day, based on the most recent known
security issues in the industry. Typical security issues have functional patches
available weeks or months before attacks become common in public "attacker" use.
You can have Security Scanner send you notifications by email, and also SMS
text messages to your cell phone!
Public Image
If customers come to your site and see it has been defaced it will make them question
doing business with you again in the future. Your customers appreciate your products
and services, no need to have a technology issue ruin a good relationship. Also
placing a Security Scanner badge on your site can help users understand the
effort you, as their on-line vendor, have taken to keep their transactions secure.
Private Information
In the digital age data is stored in mass, and people care a lot about their private
information. Issues like identity theft and credit card fraud are very important to
people for obvious reasons. Some consumers might avoid your product or service if
they feel the sale could put their privacy on the line. Offer your customers
peace of mind by keeping your server actively monitored.
Exploits & Spam
Many people do not realize most junk mail is actually sent from computers
that have been exploited! An innocent webmaster can have their sites hijacked by
spammers and that can lead to all kinds of issues. Getting blacklisted by Aol, Comcast,
or one of the many anti-spam services like Spamcop/Spamhaus can effect your core
email service with real customers! Security Scanner can find those holes
before the spammers do and run wild with your server under their control.
