Security of business IT systems has never been as important as it is today, writes software testing company AppLabs.
IT underpins virtually all the activity conducted by businesses making them increasingly vulnerable to threats from hackers, viruses and even their own staff.
Effective security can mean your business is safe from malicious activity or accidental introduction of malware. Failing to secure systems, websites and manage employee usage of the internet exposes the company to great risk – risk of a damaged reputation, risk of system damage, loss of business and the cost of remedial work. This is in spite of common uses of defenses such as firewalls and intrusion detection or prevention systems.
To reduce as much of the threat possible, organizations need to identify, analyse and report vulnerabilities in a given application.
