Cyber and internet security is now more important than ever. With organisations such as Anonymous continually targeting government websites, it really does seem like nobody is safe. Of course, it’s highly unlikely that your business and its website will be targeted to this extent, it is best to be prepared for the worst case scenario. In order to make sure your website is safe, and in order to see whether it would be able to withstand being ‘hacked’, you can get it tested. But what is this testing and how can it help you? Here, we explain in detail.
Why Does Your Website Need to be Safe?
Your website needs to be safe so that it can’t be hacked by people who are looking to steal information. If you’re the owner of an e-commerce website this is particularly the case as it’s likely that your website will be strong the information of all of your clients. This could mean that, if your site is hacked, the hackers can take credit card information. This recently happened with TalkTalk, and they’re facing big fines.
