Heartbleed Bug: "For now we're protected, and we'll be even more vigilant should another bug emerge."
London, July 11, 2014 (Newswire.com) - Although it seems that, even just a few years ago, it was possible to ignore the most recent cyber threat and still carry on a normal existence, this luxury has all but disappeared, and the recent onslaught of fear and panic brought about by the arrival of the Heartbleed Bug clearly illustrates that these threats have become increasingly potent to the point where we as a society can no longer ignore them. Many of us would like to believe that the information we provide to our financial institutions and service providers remains locked in an online “vault”. Unfortunately, this is, by no means, the truth.
That being said, increased awareness of these issues is, by no means, a completely negative idea. Take, for example, the response of the UK-based web hosting company Cyber Host Pro to the arrival of the Heartbleed Bug. The company updated all systems within half an hour to protect the websites under their care. In a massive confidence move, the company has announced that they are committed to reassuring all of their customers that they will be fully prepared and ready for another attack. According to officials at Cyber Host Pro, they are now better equipped for the next occurrence of a similar bug or virus.

Chris Danks, Mr.
The consequences of cyber crime remain somewhat staggering. It seems that new viruses are being introduced into mainstream internet traffic with an almost regular frequency. Individuals around the world are discovering, typically too late, that their financial information has been compromised and that they have sustained severe monetary damage due to data theft occurring at their bank or other company through which they engage in online commercial transactions.
As with normal human viruses, it seems that the solution for these problems remains exclusively retroactive. As there is no viable way to “predict” the arrival of a virus such as the Heartbleed Bug, web security experts must content themselves with finding methods of disarming these malicious packages after they have already inflicted the designed damage.
Perhaps this stated “solution” for virus protection is what further helps distinguish Cyber Host Pro from their peers. Instead of offering a damage control guarantee, the company is promising damage prevention. Whether or not the company will be able to make good on this guarantee has yet to be seen. Such public displays of reassurance, however, are guaranteed to inspire confidence and help Cyber Host Pro bolster the morale of their client base.
