Website Security

Website Threats

• DDoS attacks : These attacks can slow or crash website entirely, making it inaccessible to visitors.
• Malware : Short for “malicious software,” malware is a very common threat used for the theft of sensitive customer data, distribute spam, allow cybercriminals to access your site, and more.
• Blacklisting : Website may be removed from search engine results and ensigned with a warning that turns visitors away if search engines find malware.
• Vulnerability Exploits : Cybercriminals can access a site and data stored on it by exploiting weak areas in a site, like an outdated plugin.
• Defacement : This attack replaces website’s content with a cybercriminal’s malicious content.

Website Security Protects

• Stolen data : From email entitled to payment information, cybercriminals frequently follow after visitor or customer data stored on a site.
• Phishing schemes : Phishing doesn’t just happen in email – some attacks take the structure of web pages that look legitimate but are designed to deceive the user into providing sensitive information.
• Session hijacking : Some cyber-attacks can take over a user’s session and compel them to take unwanted actions on a site.
• Malicious redirects : Certain attacks can redirect visitors from the site they urged to visit to a malicious website.
• SEO Spam : Unusual links, pages, and comments can be added on a site to confuse your visitors and drive traffic to malicious websites.

Needs of Website Security

SSL

SSL, or Secure Sockets Layer, is an encryption-based Internet security protocol. It was first developed by Netscape in 1995 for the purpose of ensuring privacy, authentication, and data integrity in Internet communications. SSL is the predecessor to the modern TLS encryption used today.

We welcome you for all the related services and solution at one stop point.

How does SSL Work ?

• In order to facilitate a high degree of privacy, SSL encrypts data that is transmitted across the web. This means that anyone who tries to intercept this data will only see a garbled mix of characters that’s nearly impossible to decrypt.
• SSL initiates an authentication process called a handshake between two communicating devices to ensure that both devices are appear who they claim to be.
• SSL also digitally signs data in order to provide data integrity, verifying that the data is not tampered with prior reaching its intended recipient.
• The most common and well-known use of SSL/TLS is secure web browsing via the HTTPS protocol. A properly-configured public HTTPS website includes an SSL/TLS certificate that is signed by a publicly trusted CA. Users visiting an HTTPS website can be assured of :
• Authenticity : The server presenting the certificate is in possession of the private key that matches the public key in the certificate.
• Integrity : Documents signed by the certificate (e.g. web pages) have not been altered in transit by a man in the middle.
• Encryption : Communications between the client and server are encrypted.
