Affordable & Quality Vulnerability Assessments

If you worry about what hackers can do to your network, we have an affordable solution for you. The HackerView is a “hacker’s eye view” of your network. Simply put, our network security experts scan your external network (e.g. your firewall or router) and look for vulnerabilities that a hacker on the Internet could exploit to take over your network for his nefarious purposes.

More than a simple scan of what ports are open on your firewall, you will be provided with the information of what a hacker can learn from a non-invasive vulnerability assessment of your computer network. This is where one of our Information Security experts uses both sophisticated and simple tools to gather available information about your network in an attempt to find vulnerabilities that could be exploited by a hacker. The HackerView will identify these weaknesses and provide you with the steps to either eliminate or mitigate those risks.

In terms of Information Security, the goal is to manage risk since it is impossible to completely eliminate threats and weaknesses to a network. That is simply a fact of life. With that in mind, a good offense is your best defense and that includes learning where you are vulnerable so that you can correct those deficiencies. Knowledge is half the battle!

If you need quarterly Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) scanning, the HackerView uses a Qualified Scanning Authority (QSA) engine that can perform both the PCI DSS requirement, as well as provide you with actionable information on remediation steps, which average PCI scans lack.

In today's computing environment, network security is a sickening game of numbers. Consider these facts for computers alone: hundreds of new vulnerabilities are discovered each year, dozens of new patches are released monthly, and most of networks & the systems on those networks are already behind the curve. Compounding matters further, when opening your perimeter, system-level security becomes even more critical as it forces an increase in exposure points.

HackerView is an Internet Protocol (IP) based vulnerability assessment that provides you with a clear, easy-to-understand assessment of your security. In simple terms, you are provided with a perspective of how your network looks to potential attackers on the Internet. With that knowledge, you can take the proper steps to eliminate or mitigate those risks to your business.

HackerView is a technical review where deficiencies are identified, assigned prioritized levels of risk, and specific industry-recommended solutions are provided to correct those problems. While it is never possible to completely eliminate threats from the Internet, working with SecurityWaypoint.com and using HackerView will aide in minimizing your overall risk. This will save you time and therefore money by minimizing downtime associated with hacker exploits.
