Web site is a part of corporate infrastructure. It is not surprising that companies pay much attention to security matters.
According to Positive Technologies reports:
- more than 50% of attacks are done through the Web;
- plenty of web site hacks are registered in .ru domain daily.
Corporate site hack hits the reputation and image of a company. Having become known widely, such cases are extremely dangerous to an exterior of a company. What is more, the loss of data and client information lead to sheer material losses. That’s why companies try to avoid publicity in such cases. The more solid and famous are the name and products of a company, the more substantial can be risks and losses caused by corporate site hack.
But does this mean that it’s better not to create sites? The present-day progress and competitive environment leave no chance to skip this. The number of sites will grow as well as their functionality.
Which decision to choose and how to protect a web site and a company against possible issues? This section is devoted to these subjects. Here we touch the main aspects of internet project security, basic types of vulnerabilities and possible issues, hosting, server software reliability, back-up and maintenance, independent audit of information security and other aspects.
The process of providing the web system information security is rather difficult and laborious. Various service and software suppliers are involved in it. A secure system is sure not to be created unless its security is further maintained. Security of the information environment and web applications must be constantly monitored on all stages of system creation.
The use of the Bitrix Site Manager system, which obtained the “Secure Web Application” certificate from the Positive Technologies company that had held the audit of information security of the system, allows to assert that contemporary corporation resources are strongly secured.
Independent experts from the Positive Technologies company were engaged in preparing this section.
