Emergency response

When a vulnerability affecting your server is published, we alert you within 12 hours

No need to wait for your next scheduled scan. We pull in new vulnerabilities twice a day, find only the ones that apply to your servers, and alert you right away.

From publication to alert

  1. 1

    Published

    A new vulnerability is published

    New vulnerabilities appear in public databases such as the US National Vulnerability Database (NVD). Thousands are published every month.

  2. 2

    6:00 & 18:00 (JST)

    Pulled in and matched twice a day

    We automatically compare each new vulnerability with your server's setup (operating system, web server, programming language, database, software and versions).

  3. 3

    As soon as it matches

    Alert by email or chat

    We tell you which server is affected, what the problem is, how dangerous it is, and how to fix it. Alerts can also go to Slack, Microsoft Teams or Discord.

  4. 4

    During hours you allow

    Check just that vulnerability from outside

    If you turn on automatic scans, we run only the test for that vulnerability from the internet to confirm whether it really affects you (the load on your server is very small).

Why speed matters

Attacks start soon after publication

Once a vulnerability is published, attacks can begin within days. A yearly or monthly scan may simply be too late.

Attackers target the doors visible from outside

According to Japan's National Police Agency, more than 80% of ransomware intrusions in Japan came in through VPN devices and remote desktop. Vulnerabilities in these devices are targeted right after they are published.

Hard to keep up on your own

Unless you are an expert, it is very hard to pick out the vulnerabilities that matter to your servers from the daily flood of announcements. Security Ready keeps watch for you.

Typical scheduled scans

They run a fixed set of tests on a fixed date. Until the next scan, newly published vulnerabilities go unnoticed.

Security Ready

Twice a day, we match new vulnerabilities against your setup. If one applies, we alert you within 12 hours and, if needed, test just that vulnerability to confirm it.

Frequently asked questions

Q. How do you know my setup (operating system and software versions)?+

We automatically record what our scans from outside can detect (shown as "estimated"). For exact matching, you can check inside your servers and PCs with our read-only survey program (internal scan), or enter the details yourself in the dashboard.

Q. Will I get alerts in the middle of the night?+

We pull in new vulnerabilities at 6:00 and 18:00 Japan time, and alerts are sent right after that. You won't get alerts in the middle of the night (Japan time).

Q. Could "check just that vulnerability" take my site down?+

We never run tests that could take a site down. Scans only run within the hours you allow and under the requests-per-second limit you set.

Q. Which plans include this?+

Alerts are included in both the Lite and Standard plans. Automatic scans from outside can also be turned on with either plan.
