| NSFOCUS Security Solution Ensuring Network Security for College Entrance Examination |
| |
With the approach of the college entrance examination and the graduation of college students, all sorts of educational and recruitment websites in China, especially websites of various specialized institutions have gained more and more attention of students and their parents. Reports from Google Trends tell us that searches concerning college entrance examination will reach its peak at this time of the year and searches on keywords like “Gaokao”(college entrance exam) and “Chafen”(scoring) are often 10 times higher than the usual.
A large number of score query websites, websites of local test administration centers, and college websites face the same possibility of being attacked. The massive increase of website access is one reason that attracts attackers, and to accelerate score query systems, tamper with scores or let out feelings could also be attackers’ purposes. Lots of these kinds of attacks have been reported in the last several years.
In response, NSFOCUS launched a security protection solution for College websites, one that provides three-dimensional security protection for college websites in the form of prior-event warning—Website security monitoring services; during-event protection—deployment of specialized protective equipment; and after-event response—emergency response system. In the prior-event warning stage, 7*24 security monitoring service is supplied by NSFOCUS Website Security Monitoring Support System to monitor Webpage Trojaning, Webpage defacement, sensitive information, and page smoothness, and scan application vulnerabilities periodically, ensuring excellent security from the beginning. Meanwhile, NSFOCUS security experts recommend that institutions should check Web servers properly, with security hardening on internal and external information systems that involve College Entrance Examination to prevent network security issues from affecting the normal enrollment work; effective anti-virus software and a secure browser are recommended while students and parents visit the websites. |
