A Smart, and Simple Solution to Network Perimeter Vulnerabilities

We’ve integrated complementary security technologies into a single service that helps protect your network perimeter, your organization, your brand, and your customers from hackers. The core of our service is the same McAfee vulnerability scanning technology that currently protects more than 80,000 websites around the world. We combine it with continuously updated security data obtained from technology that searches and identifies sites that are knowingly or unwittingly enabling cybercrime. This technology browses sites, downloads files, and tests signup forms to uncover malicious activity, such as spyware infections, identity theft scams, and spamming.

Defining Your Security Path

When we find security risks, we won’t just give you a 100-page report. We give you the information in an understandable, actionable and prioritized format so you can remediate risks according to your risk tolerance. You’ll be able to quickly and efficiently delegate tasks across business units or among IT personnel, including contractors or consultants. After you remediate some (or all) of the risks, we’ll even tell you where you stand.
