Hi all
I just received the following question from the IT person at a client
of mine and I'm not sure what they're asking for. Can anybody offer
me a clue on how to best respond?
They wrote:
"Given the number of web site compromises that have occurred, I am
wondering about Filemaker server security. Is there a security
notification service for Filemaker about vulnerabilities? I worry
about possible compromises to the web based FileMaker site on our
server."
They are running FMSA9 & FX.php on Windows Server 2003 (one-machine
config). The site has a valid SSL cert., the machine is behind a
firewall (such that you need VPN access to open the DB remotely), &
FMS has Secure Connections (SSL) enabled between FMS & the WPE.
They've been up and running for over two years. I upgraded them to
FMS9 over the summer, and they made sure their OS was fully up-to-
date beforehand.
What kind of " security notification service" might they be looking for?
TIA,
-Joel
