Some of these tools are manually used by computer
vandals to find vulnerable systems. Others are built into a specific
breed of computer viruses, called worms, that can multiply using security
vulnerabilities in various software.
What this means is that every company is vulnerable - even home computers
constantly come under attack from those nuisances. In fact, it was demonstrated
that certains versions of the Windows™ operating systems were
often compromised before the end of the installation process!
Antivirus solutions are powerless against such attacks, because most
do not behave as viruses but rather as "automated hackers".
There is, however, one major weakness in the way these tools work.
All of them breach your security by exploiting known vulnerabilities.
Most of the time, those vulnerabilities were known months or even years
in advance!
ExoScan identifies over 10 000 known vulnerabilities
on all your external servers and appliances. A security analyst reviews
reports and contacts you if any dangerous vulnerability is found. Scans
are performed monthly, weekly or even daily for mission-critical systems.
The price depends on the service level, but starts as low as 100.00$
CAD per month.
