Over 70% of websites are insecure. Many do not use HTTPS, have outdated versions of software, or are poorly written and prone to SQLi, XSS and other vulnerabilities.
A website vulnerability scan is a security test of your website. Our team runs the scan on your website as a Managed Service. Due to the tempo of web technology and software technology updates, the scan is run daily.
Why a website vulnerability scan?
A website vulnerability scan is an ideal way of seeing how vulnerable your website is to a hacker using free tools and basic trade craft. All businesses should run vulnerability scans regularly. It has been proven that within one hour of a new server being connected to the internet, probing scripts were already being run on the server to see what services it hosted. Tools were run against these services to see if they were outdated, and vulnerable to an attack.
