Another tool is out of the door. I am happy to announce the official launch of the Netsecurify GNUCITIZEN initiative. In this post I am planning to give a bit of an overview of the system and also to explain what were are aiming to do with it.

Netsecurify

Netsecurify is part of GNUCITIZEN’s online security toolkit including tools such as Blogsecurify (Social Media Security) and Websecurify (Websecurity services, yet to be released)! The Netsecurify initiative was established to provide free network security services through our automated testing engine based on open source technologies.

The service is still in private-beta which means that we are only offering it for free to our friends, our clients and selected members of the public. We are also willing to open it for prime time use to organizations with low security budget, charity organizations and others who might be in need. Please, get in touch with us if you want to try it out.

As I mentioned earlier, Netsecurify is based on open source technologies and it does not differentiate much from the payed automated information security tests you get from respectful security companies. We have built a solid framework around these technologies which allows us to easily expand and produce even more quality results with minimum overhead. The engine is also designed to allow us to easily contribute back to the employed open source products and as such complete the circle of energy.

Why we are offering Netsecurify for free?

Because we can! Because it is noble. Because we want to change the world in our own way. Because we still learn how to defeat limitations and control the perception. Because it hasn’t been done before to the extend we are planning to do it. And because we have a good business plan.

Netsecurify certainly costs something. This service consumes a lot of manpower, time and computational resources. Every single one of these components costs something. It all adds up. However, we believe that we can still do what we want to do with a little bit of help from you, our friends and of course our sponsors and advertisers.

The Netsecurify platform provides ingenious, brand new form of advertising which interested companies and organizations can use to make the service better by providing additional value, to advertise and promote their services and products, etc. We believe that the platform is unique because we haven’t seen it implemented elsewhere. We also believe that our service provides one of the most targeted advertising technologies built so far.

For more information, please get in touch with us from our contact page. You can also read this excerpt over here, for more information regarding what you can do with the Netsecurify platform. Again, if you are interested in taking part of the trial period then just fill the invite form or better yet, get in touch with us directly.
