What Are Vulnerabilities?

Vulnerabilities are security risks that could endanger the operation of your Web site and servers.

Why Do Vulnerabilities Arise?

Vulnerabilities result from programming oversights made by software product developers. These oversights present opportunities that hackers can exploit.

Vulnerabilities Are Everywhere

Vulnerabilities exist on all types of computer systems. New vulnerabilities are continually discovered and announced to the public.

It then becomes a race between the "good guys" (security professionals) and "bad guys" (hackers and crackers). Security professionals rush to implement patches and download fixes while hackers write malicious code to exploit vulnerabilities.

The danger increases dramatically if you do not monitor and update your Web site security on a regular basis.
