Product Tour:
Audit your web site security with Acunetix
Web Vulnerability Scanner:
Acunetix Web Vulnerability Scanner (WVS) is an automated
web application security testing tool that audits your web applications
by checking for exploitable hacking vulnerabilities. Automated scans
may be supplemented and cross-checked with the variety of manual
tools to allow for comprehensive web site and web application penetration
testing.
If web applications are not secure, then your entire
database of sensitive information is at serious risk. Why?
- Websites and related web applications must be available 24 x
7 to provide the required service to customers, employees, suppliers
and other stakeholders
- Firewalls and SSL provide no protection against web application
hacking, simply because access to the website has to be made public
- Web applications often have direct access to backend data such
as customer databases and, hence, control valuable data and are
much more difficult to secure
- Custom applications are more susceptible to attack because
they involve a lesser degree of testing than off-the-shelf software
- Hackers prefer gaining access to the sensitive data because
of the immense pay-offs in selling the data.
