Server Reporting

New tags, new reports (2006-10-03)

Reports are no longer limited to groups of rules! From now on, it is possible to receive cross-group reports through the introduction of tags in the monitoring settings.

Reporting by rule or group of rules. This is how it was done until now. The introduction of tags in the monitor settings means we are now able to satisfy clients that need another type of reporting – reporting that transcends any particular group. For example, the multi-media company Lost Boys has grouped rules by client, but wants to receive reports on certain type of servers from all of its clients, e.g. an overview of all its clients’ mail servers. By means of tags, Lost Boys is able to state which rules should be shown at the same time. In this case, all of the rules from the mail servers. The tag feature therefore makes it possible to arrive at a different form of reporting, whereby it is possible for you to analyse the information in different ways.

Did you know? Hackers probe your servers for vulnerabilities between 5 and 170 times per week (2007-10-29)

With a dramatic rise in malicious attacks, it is now critical to test your websites and servers for security vulnerabilities. Having the latest firewalls and Intrusion Detection Systems will not protect your organization if they (or the services behind it) are not kept up-to-date and configured correctly.

This means that verifying the security of your systems is not something you can do just once, nor should you check this just every now-and-then. New vulnerabilities are identified every day, exploits become available soon after it, and every change in your systems' configurations, however small, may open up new vulnerabilities. Having audited last week does not imply your systems are fine today!

The WatchMouse Periodic Vulnerability Scan is an affordable way to routinely check your company’s security exposure. Utilizing the most up-to-date database of known vulnerabilities, WatchMouse’s identifies any security risks and provides you with the peace-of-mind that your web applications are being scrutinized from the perspective of a possible attacker.

Characteristics

WatchMouse offers Periodic Vulnerability Scanning with an outside - hacker's - view, with the following characteristics:

• Currently over 20,000 vulnerabilities are checked. Checks for new vulnerabilities are added on a daily basis.
• The frequency and the intensity of a scan can be tailored to your policies, and implemented immediately on our self-service website.
• Severe vulnerabilities can, depending on your preferences, initiate SMS (text) or paging alerts, giving you, or your webmasters, the opportunity to react quickly in case of new vulnerabilities.
• Extensive reporting is available for each scan, including pointers on how to fix vulnerabilities.
• WatchMouse's unique Vulnerability Scan Customer Console allows you to manage subsequent scans by inspecting differential reports and open issues, declaring vulnerabilities fixed, adding operator comments, etc.
