There is enough to worry about without having to be constantly checking whether your web site is secure and your employees have kept their browsers (and anti-virus software) up to date.

"Ensuring your browser and all its plug-ins are at the latest security level is a must -- and it takes only four seconds for Qualys to help you find out. Making sure your business web site is not compromised or vulnerable to attacks is equally as important, and the Qualys SECURE Seal provides an effective solution for maintaining a rigorous and proactive security program to help you safeguard your customers' data."
