HP unveils security offerings against Web attacks

20.04.2009

The third offering, HP Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) Project Services for Application Security Center, provides full scanning and penetration testing services hosted by HP. The vendor looks to support customer security teams during critical projects or peak testing periods with its own experts, provide expertise around the scanning requirements of Web 2.0 technologies, and provide guidance on building an effective compliance-driven Web application security scanning practice across the enterprise.

These new announcements are a follow-up to the vendor's fixing tool for Flash software. Earlier in March, HP Software & Solutions introduced SWFScan, a free tool to help Flash developers protect their websites against application security vulnerabilities and reduce the risk of hackers accessing sensitive data.
