API makes website security instantly transparent

blog-tgapi

Protecting personal data and monitoring data security is a good practice. Actually acting on reports immediately and taking measures if necessary is even better. It is therefore all the more important that you have access to current and clear information within your organisation.

Officially, the legislation does not dictate any standard(s) when it comes to compliance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). It is your responsibility to protect privacy-sensitive information, but how you do it – and how you report on it – is up to you.

The API makes scan results immediately available and ready for integration

That is why Trust Guard offers an overview of all found security vulnerabilities, not only via the dashboard or e-mail, but now also automatically via an API. This allows you to make all scan results from your own website(s) or those of your customers available immediately so that you can start solving the found security vulnerabilities straight away. In addition, you can use the same API to make the individual customer scan results available directly in their own dashboard so that the status of the website security is made clear and it becomes ‘top-of-mind’!

Internal: link scan results to your internal ticketing system and reporting

Make it easy for your employees and management by retrieving the scan results with the API and linking them directly to your helpdesk/ticketing system like Jira. By doing so, vulnerabilities are reported directly in your organisation and you can also automate reminders and escalation procedures! This also makes the security status directly available to your management, because ultimately the owner or CEO is personally legally responsible for the security, as stipulated in legislation such as GDPR! Many companies have to remain PCI/DSS certified for the acceptance of credit card transactions or have to submit an annual OWASP report for Thuiswinkel.org. With Trust Guard you can! Don’t be surprised afterwards by the use of passive reports that make you react (too) late. Give your company the advantage of up-to-date reporting with the API so that your company can respond proactively and prevent problems!

External: offer your customers also the convenience of website security in your own dashboard!

The API enables you to offer website security to your customers as an integral part of your service. A win-win situation, if only because you can show the scan results in the look and feel of your dashboard, making it much more pleasant for your customer to use. Offer website security from your own familiar environment and make security important and transparent for your customer!

Single Sign On (SSO)

Trust Guard does not stop there. Because in addition to displaying the results of the security scan in your own dashboard or that of your clients, you can also use the API to activate a direct Single Sign On (login) to the details of the security problems found in the Trust Guard dashboard! No extra login required, as your employee or your customer is already logged into your environment!

Resellers

As a Trust Guard reseller, you can easily offer website security on your website and expand your services. By simply placing the Trust Guard sign up button on your website, customers can create an account in just a few clicks. You can then choose whether to check the scan results in the overview in the dashboard, have them periodically e-mailed to you or whether you use the API to retrieve the scan results internally and/or make them available to your customers in your own dashboard! Start now, quickly and easily! The API integration can always be done as a next step!

Give yourself and your customers confidence in website security with Trust Guard.
