Secure your IT infrastructure for free
Sencode Cyber Security is Launching a new security initiative for Entrepreneurs Forum members. In order to improve the overall security of businesses and protect their data, they're offering free vulnerability scanning to all Forum members.
Any external server owned by your organization is eligible for a free and quick security check. Validate the security of your website, firewall or server and ensure they are GDPR compliant. Hackers will often scan the internet to find servers and services which are open to attack this allows them to build a list of targets and attack them individually.
This process can be automated to allow them to hack thousands of servers and use them for their own purposes. By launching this program we can help any business steer clear of hackers at no extra cost to them. All scans result in a report which is sent back to the client and includes a detailed list of issues found ordered by risk to the service.
More information and contact for interest can be found here.
What is Vulnerability Scanning?
A vulnerability scan identifies security flaws in computers, internal and external networks, and communication devices that cyber criminals can exploit. It is a process that searches infrastructure targets such as IP addresses for known vulnerabilities and misconfiguration. The ensuing vulnerability assessment report will assist you in quickly identifying security flaws that must be addressed.
Why are you doing this?
Many modern security issues can be detected by automated scanners. Cyber Criminals can use these scanners to find a large list of targets which can also be attacked automatically. By offering this service we're helping improve the security of the region and businesses by staying one step ahead of hackers. It also has the added benefit of allowing us to make new friends! Much of the infrastructure required for such a project is already in place for us and can be easily used to do some good by protecting others.
