The beta version of a free service has become available to help website owners keep their properties safer. QualysGuard Malware Detection is designed to scan sites for malware infections and other threats, regardless of sites' size or the site owners' physical location.

This service is supposed to do everything shy of solve a problem. The process starts with it conducting daily scans. Then, it'll alert sites' owners to any issues it uncovers. Finally, it should point out vulnerable snippets of code, making the removal of malware easier. All without delivering false positives.
Philippe Courtot, the chairman and CEO of Qualys, explained his company's motivation for introducing this service by stating, "We created QualysGuard Malware Detection as a way to fight against cybercrime and to make the Web a safer place for everyone."
He then continued, "This is a comprehensive free solution that arms businesses of all sizes to monitor malware threats on their web sites and take steps to remediate vulnerabilities."
Hopefully QualysGuard Malware Detection will live up to its billing. A free way of keeping sites and their visitors safe certainly sounds good, and is bound to become quite popular if it works well.
