(WEB HOST INDUSTRY REVIEW) -- Web hosting provider Go Daddy (www.godaddy.com) announced on Wednesday that its security team has been recongnized as the IT industry's "Best Security Team" at the 14th annual SC Magazine Awards in San Francisco.
According to Go Daddy, its security team protects more than 46 million domain names and more than 8.8 million customers. The team has grown from one person to more than 50 people in its six years of operation. "Millions of people depend on Go Daddy to be their personal IT security department, which allows our customers to focus on building their businesses and enhancing their Web presence," Go Daddy CEO and founder Bob Parsons said in a statement. "Go Daddy is working hard all day, every day to protect our customers' websites. It's an honor to see our IT Security Team recognized with this award from SC Magazine."
Go Daddy says that its Hackfest event which takes place internally is a key strategy for security effectiveness. Go Daddy explains that "the event proactively seeks out product vulnerabilities. The approach not only secures Go Daddy products, but also familiarizes the rest of the company with security processes."
Go Daddy claims its use of Security Information Management is another core aspect to its security offerings. SIM is an approach based on a security network's ability to defend itself before it is attacked.
