Know Your Network
Have you made recent system changes that may have left your network vulnerable? Perimeter Check service allows you to perform an analysis of your current network security and locate these vulnerabilities before a hacker locates them.
Perimeter Check is a subscription-based, vulnerability assessment service designed to allow you to initiate attacks on network perimeter, firewall, Web and other application servers to identify possible configuration weaknesses. This service is ideal if you want to evaluate your security perimeters or verify service levels provided by managed security service providers.
Perimeter Check service features include:
- Subscription service for 12 scans annually
- Attack sequence updated by vendor
- Access- and product-independent service
- Secure sockets layer (SSL) Web site with individual user accounts for initiating scans and viewing reports
- Vulnerability assessments for a maximum of five Internet accessible IP addresses
Service Overview
By subscribing to Perimeter Check service, you will receive 12 scans of up to five IP addresses. You can schedule the scans via a password-controlled Web site and submit IP addresses for approval.
No attacks will be initiated until you verify the IP addresses. Once the scan is completed, you receive an e-mail directing you to the Web site to view the results of the scan, along with any recommendations.
It is important to scan your network systems periodically for several reasons:
- Whenever you add new applications, you may add new risks.
- Hackers can find new ways to compromise systems.
- Altering security architecture can create new vulnerabilities.
