Joomscan Security Scanner Updated to Detect 550 Joomla Flaws

The Joomscan Security Scanner was recently updated to make sure even more Joomla website security vulnerabilities are detected.

If the last update made in August 2009 was programed to detect some 466 weaknesses, the latest variant's database contains 500 flaws that could affect Joomla websites.

Joomla website administrators can now make sure the sites they maintain are protected against file inclusions, SQL injections and command execution vulnerabilities, reports The Hacker News.

Since website weaknesses are a major issue these days, such a utility can be very useful for those who want to make sure their assets benefit from watertight security.
