New WebsiteDefender from @Acunetix worth a look-see
13 Jun 2011The folks at Acunetix have a neat new product/service called WebsiteDefender. I’ve yet to try it myself but it looks promising – fills a nice niche.
WebsiteDefender is an agent-based tool for websites and WordPress-based blogs that:
- Scans your site for security flaws
- Detects malware running on your site
- Alerts you to suspicious web site activity including file changes
The obvious benefit is to have a more secure online presence but as Acunetix is marketing WebsiteDefender, it can also keep you from getting blacklisted by Google and presumably from being listed as questionable by services like Web of Trust.
Certainly worth checking out. More info to come once I take it for a spin…

Client Testimonials
“A business associate referred our company to Principle Logic when we were seeking a resource to perform vulnerability /penetration testing for our external and internal networks. We found Kevin Beaver to be professional, well informed, and easy to work with. His testing did not disrupt our networks, and his progress updates were timely.
His final report was very thorough and included security recommendations for our network environment. The executive leadership was so impressed with Kevin’s security expertise, they have extended their agreement to continue to perform periodic testing. We highly recommend Kevin Beaver and Principle Logic as a resource for network security testing.”
