Identify, Manage, and Reduce your Risks

 

Website Assessment 

Who Needs Web Site Assessments

Website assessments are ideal for:

  • Web sites that attract California customers
  • Businesses concerned about compliance
  • Emerging and fast growing firms
  • Organizations in the financial and health care industries

Work Plan

Altius IT’s web site assessment services employ several methodologies including:

  • An external review of the web site(s)
  • Conversations with the web site design team
  • A review of procedures related to web site modifications
  • Other asset protection measures

Altius IT reviews the web site infrastructure including domain name, registrar, and web site host. In addition, our services include a review customer interfaces such as:

  • Navigation buttons, invalid links
  • Look and feel of the site, images, etc.
  • Contact information
  • Marketing including Meta tags, keywords, etc.

We review and examine your site for legal issues such as regulatory compliance, copyright concerns, and trademark issues.  Altius IT also offers web application and database vulnerability assessments for websites that interface with database systems.

Compliance

Not only is a web site the first contact with a prospect, it reflects on your organization’s image and reputation. In addition to interfacing with customers, web sites play an important role in compliance.

For many firms, the corporate web site is a cost effective means of disseminating information and generating new business. If your organization’s web site is down or otherwise unavailable, the resulting disruption could have a material impact on your organization's business.

California On-line Privacy Protection Act

The California Online Privacy Protection Act requires a privacy policy be "conspicuously" posted on web sites that collect personally identifiable information. In addition to requiring a privacy policy, it also requires you to adhere to the statements made in your policy.  Altius IT reviews your site to see if it meets the requirements of the California On-line Privacy Protection Act.
