Secure Computing launches industry's first self-serve Domain Health Check in Middle East

Secure Computing Corporation, a leading enterprise gateway security company, has recently announced the Middle East launch of Domain Health Check - a free web service that provides users with a behavior-based view of the messaging and web reputation of their domains. This is a first-of-its-kind service that provides users with a free report about the security of their domain as seen and correlated from thousands of points around the globe.

In today's ever-changing security landscape, where attacks routinely use compromised computers as hosts and mobile workforce computers can easily become infected outside the office, it is important for corporate IT departments to regularly monitor and track the behavior of systems within their networks.

Those who request a Domain Health Check from Secure Computing will receive a report that provides a snapshot of their domain's security reputation as it pertains to web and email traffic. Reputation scores are calculated based on behavior data captured in real-time by Secure Computing's TrustedSource(TM) reputation service. Like a credit score, a reputation score indicates whether a site is in good standing, or if it may have been compromised and is being used in nefarious ways. As part of the report, participants will receive remediation tips that serve as a starting point for further action.

“TrustedSource is the most extensive Internet reputation system in the market and enables all of our gateway security appliances to accurately block malware, spam and phishing attacks at more than half the Fortune 500 companies. With a growing number of companies across the Middle East realizing the importance of ensuring the security of their domains and networks, the Domain Health Check could prove invaluable as it provides vital information to anyone needing insight into the security of their websites and domains," said Sami Mulla, Director, Middle East, Secure Computing.

Domain Health Check is available via the Secure Computing home page. Visitors simply require a valid email address and domain in order to generate a report about the “health” of their domain. It offers an easy-to-read and understand report that provides web reputation and site categorization information; message reputation information including any malicious senders, suspected zombies, dormant email senders within the domain, and phishing incidents for the domain as observed by TrustedSource; summary and interpretation of results; and remediation suggestions including recommended next steps.

Secure Computing, a leading provider of enterprise gateway security, delivers a comprehensive set of solutions that help customers protect their critical Web, email and network assets. Over half the Fortune 50 and Fortune 500 are part of our more than 20,000 global customers in 106 countries, supported by a worldwide network of more than 2,300 partners.
