Hi Paul, There are companies that will periodically scan your site for vulnerabilities and issue you a "certificate icon" you can post on your site. Users clicking on the icon will be brought to a report or page certifying your site is safe. Typically they will notify you directly if any problems are found.
The ones I know of are all pay-for-services. Here's a few I know of: This is more of an example. Go to http://www.tigerdirect.ca/ and click on the "Hacker Safe" icon in the upper left corner. That will bring you to their report. They use http://www.scanalert.com/ The one we use on our sites is https://www.trustwave.com/. Also, if your use SSL certs, many SSL issuers allow you to use certain logos on your site to indicate your site is secured using their product (Verisign offers this for example). Hope this helps Jeremy -----Original Message----- From: Discussion of advanced .NET topics.

We are based in the U.K. Does such a thing exist?
