ScanAlert makes Web sites secure from hackers and certifies it to their customers with the HACKER SAFE certification mark.

ScanAlert protects you from the methods hackers actually use to steal your credit card from sites where you shop - even from sites that use SSL connections.

To earn HACKER SAFE certification, our websites must pass more than 2,000 daily security tests, which probe all of the known methods and tricks that hackers use to break into sites. Our testing must indicate this site has no known security holes, and that site administrators consistently close any newly discovered vulnerabilities within 72 hours.

Research conducted at the federally funded Computer Emergency Response Team (CERT®) indicates that sites that are secure against all known vulnerabilities, such as those earning HACKER SAFE certification, will prevent over 99% of hacker crime.

ScanAlert controls the display of the certification mark, not the merchant. You will only see the HACKER SAFE mark when the site passes our daily security audits.
