N-Stalker Software Highlighted in Japan
The Japanese magazine ASCII-BUSINESS.COM published, in its March/2006 edition, an article highlighting N-Stealth Software Scanner as an effective tool for WEB security scanning routines (Please see site http://ascii-business.com with original article).
Below follows translation of the Japanese text into the English language:
“Keep your WEB server safe with N-Stealth.
World Wide Web server, as it means, is open to worldwide visitors. This is one of the main reasons why crackers try to attack the web.
N-Stealth is the powerful tool for the IT professionals who want to keep their web servers safe, free from vulnerabilities.
In the past, only famous web sites belonging to governments’ and large-scale enterprises’ were targeted by hackers. But nowadays every web server (including those belonging to small-and-mid scale business) is in danger of craking, because of wide-spread, so-called cracking tools, and increasing number of exhibitionistic crackers.
As you know, the web server is the one of most important assets of a company. But, it may cost too much to keep your web server(s) always safe.
You can ask to major system integrators to do everything about your web site — from the design, vulnerability assessment, patch installation, monitoring, penetration tests, intrusion detection, and so on. But such catch-all-solution only work when you (or your company) want(s) to spare no cost in operating your web.
Some system integrators offer budget-pleasing vulnerability assessment service. But information of the report is limited to major security holes. Furthermore, you cannot assess your server anytime you want.
Therefore, you may seek more suitable and adequate solutions.
N-Stealth is the solution.
N-Stealth is adopted by governments, major companies, military like NASA, Bank of America and others.
This software has over 30,000 vulnerability signature in its data base. Note that the data base is frequently-up-dated. For example, N-Stalker added 4,000 vulnerability signatures in 2004.
N-Stealth scans web sever, and generates report describing web server’s vulnerability, including what software patches should be installed, permission setting to be changed, how to get the latest patches, and so on and so forth.
You can use the report to install software patches by yourself or ask system integrator to fix the security problem in case that N-Stealth finds a vulnerability.
You can scan your web server anytime you want, in one year, using up-to-date signature data base, for one IP, under JPY50,000.
Thus, it is a cost-effective solution to utilize N-Stealth.”
