Today's SMBs face the same security threats as enterprise companies. Security Vulnerability Assessment for SMB can help by proving accurate, actionable information to start building an effective security plan. |

Security isn't just for large enterprises any more. In fact, a recent study by Forrester Research found that "75% of small and medium businesses (SMB) expect to make new security investments in the next twelve months."

There are two primary reasons for the growing interest in, and need for, security among SMBs. The first is the rapidly-growing number of viruses, Trojan horses, hacker attacks, and other threats that today target large and small companies and individual and corporate users alike. The second is the fact that businesses of all sizes now rely extensively on their IT environments to meet their business goals.

Unfortunately, designing and implementing a security plan that provides the best possible response to threats, while also ensuring the most effective and focused use of budgets and resources is often a major challenge for SMBs. That's exactly where the Security Vulnerability Assessment from HP can help.

This new service provides access to a trusted partner with industry certified credentials who can lead SMBs through the complex security field. In the strictest confidence, HP security consultants prepare the accurate, actionable information these companies need to identify specific network security vulnerabilities at the most affordable price in the industry. The service also includes expert assistance to help SMBs identify the remedial solutions that will deliver optimum results in addressing their specific vulnerabilities.
