Acunetix showcases Online Vulnerability Scanner at 2016 TELCO Cloud Forum

London, UK – May 2016 – Leading web app and network security experts Acunetix will be exhibiting for the first time at the 7th Annual TELCO Cloud 2016 Forum taking place on 10th and 11th May 2016 at Stand 7 at the Park Plaza Victoria, London, UK.

Successful cloud installations rely on secure apps and platforms protected from cyber criminals, therefore a robust system to proactively detect online vulnerabilities is critical. That’s why Secure Cloud is a key theme at this year’s TELCO Cloud Forum.

Acunetix OVS acts as a virtual security officer for a company, scanning its websites, including web applications, web servers and any additional perimeter servers, for vulnerabilities. This includes databases and systems that may just be available to staff, or are open for public access. It also identifies assets that may have been forgotten, such as FTP servers. This allows companies to fix problems before hackers can target the weak points in their IT infrastructure.

Acunetix General Manager Chris Martin, who will be on hand at the Acunetix stand, says: “Telecoms is an important sector for us, as cyber security is such a key focus globally. Acunetix OVS is designed to help modern businesses with cloud vulnerability management and prevent problems before they start.”
