WEB SECURITY ALLIANCE UNVEILS TOOL TO DETECT NET VULNERABILITY.(Product Announcement)

The Alliance for Internet Security, Reston, Va., has unveiled a new tool which determines if corporate networks are vulnerable to participating in cyber attacks.

This allows computer network administrators to take corrective action before their systems are used as part of a Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks. The tool, called NetLitmus, will be made available at no cost to anyone who joins the Alliance.

"NetLitmus is the first tool of its kind and a critical first step in solving some of the most pressing security issues today," said Peter Tippett
