Advanced Security and Monitoring Service

Upgrade and Update

You invested a great deal in developing your website. Continued investments in design, functionality, and marketing drive increased sales. Site patches, security updates, and upgrades are often an afterthought.

Recent malware attacks demonstrate three facts:

  • Hackers seek the greatest bang for their buck by targeting the most popular platforms.
  • Older and outdated eCommerce platforms offer easier targets for hackers.
  • Each connection to your eCommerce platform is a potential target for entry.

Active Alerts and Rapid Response

With the Advanced Security and Monitoring Service, you define the alerts you need to stay on top of critical aspects of your online infrastructure. It is critical to have a plan of action when you get such an alert. For all alerts, the core of your response will be:

  • Using effective communication channels
  • Defining levels of threat and response protocols for each
  • Establishing clear escalation processes
  • Identifying external entities and relevant modes of communication

The safegards provided by our Advanced Security and Monitoring Services may never be put to the test. Yet, your investment in these services is a small price to pay considering the potentially disastrous business costs resulting from a serious security breach.
