class="blueContentTitle">Answers:</h2> <a name="q1"></a> <p><strong>What is a Web site vulnerability?</strong><br>A vulnerability is a potential entry point through which a Web site’s functionality or data can be damaged, downloaded, or manipulated. A typical Web site (even the simplest blog) may have thousands of potential vulnerabilities.<br><br><a href="#top">Back to Top</a></p> <a name="q2"></a> <p><strong>What is vulnerability assessment?</strong><br>Free with the purchase of every Extended Validation or Pro SSL Certificate (<a href="/web/20120118032603/https://www.verisign.com/ssl/buy-ssl-certificates/compare-ssl-certificates/index.html">Compare SSL Certificates</a>), vulnerability assessment helps you quickly identify and take action against the most exploitable weaknesses on your Web site. Vulnerability assessment includes: </p> <ul> <li>An automatic weekly scan for vulnerabilities on public-facing Web pages, Web-based applications, server software and network ports. </li> <li>An actionable report that identifies both critical vulnerabilities that should be investigated immediately and informational items that pose a lower risk. </li> <li>An option to rescan your Web site to help confirm that vulnerabilities have been fixed. </li> </ul> <p><a href="#top">Back to Top</a></p> <a name="q3"></a> <p><strong>How does VeriSign help keep my site visitors safe?</strong></p> <ul> <li>SSL encryption protects online transactions and keeps data confidential in transmission. </li> <li>Vulnerability assessment identifies weaknesses on your Web site that are most commonly used for attack. </li> <li>Malware scanning alerts you if your Web site is infected with malicious software. </li> </ul> <p>The combination of SSL encryption, vulnerability assessment and Web site malware scanning helps you provide site visitors with a safer online experience and extend security beyond https to your public-facing Web pages. <br><br><a href="#top">Back to Top</a></p> <a name="q4"></a> <p><strong>How does VeriSign help me avoid being blacklisted by search engines?</strong><br>Google, Yahoo, Bing and other search engines scan and then blacklist or exclude any Web site found with malware. By using vulnerability assessment to identify exploitable weaknesses and taking corrective action, you may reduce the risk of hackers finding your site and attacking it. With daily Web site malware scanning, you have an early warning system if an attack occurs. VeriSign includes both services for free with every Extended Validation or Pro SSL Certificate (<a href="/web/20120118032603/https://www.verisign.com/ssl/buy-ssl-certificates/compare-ssl-certificates/index.html">Compare SSL Certificates</a>). Daily Web site malware scanning is included with every <a href="/web/20120118032603/https://www.verisign.com/ssl/buy-ssl-certificates/secure-site-ssl-certificates/index.html">Secure Site SSL Certificate</a>.<br><br><a href="#top">Back to Top</a></p> <a name="q5"></a> <p><strong>How does vulnerability assessment help companies manage security?</strong><br>VeriSign offers a vulnerability scan that is designed to detect the entry points most frequently used for the most common attacks. The vulnerability report categorizes vulnerabilities based on type and risk and proposes corrective actions. This combination helps businesses quickly identify and remediate critical vulnerabilities, making it easier to secure your Web site. Vulnerability scans that have not been fine tuned may generate volumes of unneeded data about low priority vulnerabilities, obscuring the essential security measures that need to be taken immediately. <br><br><a href="#top">Back to Top</a></p> <a name="q6"></a> <p><strong>What are the most common types of attack?</strong><br>SQL injection is used by hackers to gain access to your database. Cross-site scripting lets a hacker add code to your Web site to execute tasks. A few simple steps can protect against these common attacks if you know where the weaknesses are on your Web site.<br><br><a href="#top">Back to Top</a></p> <a name="q7"></a> <p><strong>Does the VeriSign Trust Seal change when vulnerabilities are detected?</strong><br>No. A detected vulnerability does not affect the appearance of your trust mark. Vulnerabilities are not threats, they are entry points that may be exploited. The VeriSign Trust Seal changes appearance when malware is detected and visitors may be at risk. By not connecting your seal to vulnerability scanning results, VeriSign helps you maintain trust in your Web site and allows you to fix vulnerabilities on your own schedule.<br><br><a href="#top">Back to Top</a></p> <a name="q8"></a> <p><strong>What if I already have vulnerability scanning?</strong><br>Vulnerability assessment does not replace PCI-compliant vulnerability scans. The free service complements existing protection with an automatic weekly scan and an easy-to-read report of the most critical vulnerabilities. Provided with your SSL Certificate, vulnerability assessment can be combined with other scans to provide additional information to help decide how to take action.<br><br><a href="#top">Back to Top</a></p> <a name="q9"></a> <p><strong>Can I customize my scan?</strong><br>Vulnerability assessment is designed to provide essential information without a complex set up or extensive management. You may change notifications and activate or deactivate starting points if you have multiple SSL Certificates with different fully qualified domain names.<br><br><a href="#top">Back to Top</a></p> <a name="q10"></a> <p><strong>Which SSL Certificates include vulnerability assessment?</strong><br>Vulnerability assessment is included with <a href="/web/20120118032603/https://www.verisign.com/ssl/buy-ssl-certificates/extended-validation-pro-ssl-certificates/index.html">VeriSign® Secure Site Pro with EV</a>, <a href="/web/20120118032603/https://www.verisign.com/ssl/buy-ssl-certificates/extended-validation-ssl-certificates/index.html">Secure Site with EV</a>, and <a href="/web/20120118032603/https://www.verisign.com/ssl/buy-ssl-certificates/secure-site-pro-ssl-certificates/index.html">Secure Site Pro</a> SSL Certificates.
