We believe regular vulnerability scanning is critical to keep up with the rapid pace of emerging threats.  Our scanning will provide historic information such as a formal report and recommendations to help you meet regulatory requirements such as GLBA, SOX, and PCI DSS among others.

Scanning the perimeter network is a good security practice; however, looking for vulnerabilities in a firewall infrastructure alone does not offer enough protection from rapidly emerging Internet-based threats.  An annual report released by the Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3.gov) suggests there were 303,809 formal complaints filed by individuals and/or companies in the United States in 2010.  In general, the complaints involved one or more of the following categories:

1. Social engineering fraud including telephone calls vishing and email phishing lead to the
    disclosure of sensitive data.
2. Hackers created false and/or phishing websites to obtain sensitive data.
3. Hackers defaced the corporate website to cause reputational damage.
3. Internet attacks created a perimeter denial-of-service (DOS) situation in which the business
    could not receive email or access the Internet.  
4. Website hacking via SQL injection or cross-site scripting lead to the disclosure of sensitive
     information.      

Our vulnerability testing services are completed remotely and performed nationwide using industry-leading toolsets.
