Announces Release of New Port Security Check For Global Up Time

05-21-04 -- Today Global Web Monitor announced that it has developed a new port security check for its Global Up Time clients. This port security check enables a client to monitor any port on a schedule of their choosing. This monitoring service will expose many common security holes when they are opened up and alert a client as soon as they are detected instead of after an attack has occurred. 

File sharing security issues, trojan horses and worms pose the biggest threats to business computers and with the proper firewall and firewall maintenance these threats can be all but eliminated, the problem comes when a client has employees who are answering email, surfing the internet or changing configurations. Simple precautions and port monitoring can minimize or eliminate their exposure to these attacks. Remote port security checking provides real world security monitoring for our clients and reduces overhead by eliminating the software required to perform port scanning on local computers and eliminating the time required for an IT tech to perform the scan. Alerting options for Global Up Time include SMS, pager, email, phone and text. 

Global Web Monitor is a growing B2B service company based in Lincoln, Nebraska that offers web based services to the online business community, including website and network monitoring services through Global Up Time, and website analysis services through Global Site Analysis and competition analysis through Global Competition Monitor.
