How secure is your website?
You may not have thought about it so far but as your web presence is becoming a key element in the interfacing you have with your customers, you need to turn around the question.
How secure is your customer?
A customer who is ready to dig inside his pocket to pull his credit card out and share the information related to his hard earned money, while getting ready to buy something online but stops to confirm how sincerely is this web shop taking website security and thorough website testing to prove it to be a genuinely secured website. What he has to believe on is what the customer can look at; he might look for a website security certificate, a website trust logo, a showcased seal of trust or something on the similar lines.
Do customers care about a website security or a trust seal?
Google analytic time and again has proved that lot of potential customer turnouts are from the first couple of pages he visits, due to the insecurity build up with a thought that this is not a secured website. Above all that there are a lot of options while shopping on the web, which are enough to confuse the potential customer, who most of the times end up buying something, which he was not sure of.
In today’s ever widening vertical of online shopping, Website Security Testing has become an important part of every web shop owner’s and customer’s day-to-day life but there are quite a few online business owners who are still not sure of how on-demand Vulnerability Scanning and Website Trust logo is going to help the business owner to transform the visitors into potential buyers or customers as well.
Is Website security testing really complex?
Web application testing and security testing was much simpler a thing in the past, but today with all the latest web application technologies cropping up in the market, it has become a mandatory challenge faced everyday in securing the websites from any external unwanted and unethical activities. Securing your website has become as important as advertising or marketing the products and services which the business or an individual is trying to sell in the market.
There are complaints that the web vulnerability scanners are too invasive and that is why online business owners choose not to execute them against their websites, but as the security experts say living with the invasion for the ethical reasons is far better than the thousands of websites being invaded everyday for all the unethical reasons. Reports from an automated website security scan are a good way to know a clear overview of your website security level. Manual penetration testing done by a qualified certified ethical hacker is the next best step if the website vulnerability scan report has a lot of genuine findings, in order to secure the website from unethical hackers trying to break in and breach the financial online data security of your valued customers.
