G7 Security Releases First Cyber Security App for Mobile Devices

Dallas, TX, January 01, 2011 --(PR.com)-- G7 Security App provides tools, latest News and dynamic content on Cyber Security from Global CERTS and various other intel resources from around the world right to your mobile phone.

Mr. Mirza, founder and developer of the G7 Security App, commented: "Our systems pull security related web content and then parses, filters and mixes them to provide rich and highly relevant information. This algorithm is fine tuned for Cyber Security News."

According to a G7 Security's certified security professional and consultant, G7 Security App offers Cyber Security Alerts in Real Time from the National Cyber Alert System that contains timely information about current security issues, vulnerabilities, and exploits. They outline the steps and actions that non-technical home and corporate computer users can take to protect themselves from attack.

Furthermore, the app also provides Cyber Security Bulletin with a summary of new vulnerabilities that have been recorded by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) National Vulnerability Database (NVD) in the past week. The NVD is sponsored by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) National Cyber Security Division (NCSD) / United States Computer Emergency Readiness Team.

G7 Sec Team also mentioned that future releases will offer many new features that are in development such as Cyber Incident Map to display and track high value incidents, ability to report and monitor your incidents on the web and in the App, Mmre information on new cyber attack methods and recommended responses.

Another G7 subject matter expert stated that "we further plan to classify and offer more types of information such as DNS attack method trends, incident response techniques, DNS spoofing issues, new attack trends and methods of related incidents and effective response methods."

Robert Kivikoski, one of the early adopters commented "The G7 Security App is great and so very useful and the information you provide is of tremendous value."

G7 App also features G7 Cyber Tools:

Ping SRC by IP or Host Name:
* Check to see if your server is up and running.
