Blackwood, NJ -- (SBWIRE) -- 03/30/2015 -- Xact IT Solutions, one of the Greater Philadelphia area's top small-business Information Technology specialists, announced the commencement of a new, limited-time free network audit offer. The next five new clients who sign up at the Xact IT Solutions website will be eligible to receive free, no-obligation, on-site IT security assessments, normally priced at hundreds of dollars. These valuable audits will help new XITX clients pinpoint and close network and software weaknesses that could otherwise expose them to digital attackers. With a full range of top-quality services that have already benefited hundreds of small businesses in the Greater Philadelphia area, Xact IT Solutions is one of the East Coast's top Information Technology specialists.

"It seems like every week another new high-profile security breach hits the news," Xact IT Solutions representative Jacob Leclaire said, "What often goes unreported, though, is how vulnerable small businesses are to the same kinds of threats. Our new free security audit offer is the best way of all for companies around Philadelphia to ensure that they do not fall victim to Internet-based criminals."

Technology specialist IBM's research division estimates that over 1.5 million successful cyber attacks affect United States companies every year. Some of the largest targets, in fact, can endure over 15,000 of these thrusts annually, with hackers around the world continually probing their systems for weaknesses.

While attacks on large, prominent companies are most likely to make the news, the fact is that smaller businesses are targeted and breached even more frequently. Hackers have discovered that, with less in the way of resources and expertise, these smaller operations are often softer targets than larger ones. Successive reports by Verizon, for example, have established that nearly three-quarters of all successful cyber attacks affect companies with fewer than 100 employees, and that share is growing steadily.

Xact IT Solutions' new free security audit offer will therefore prove especially valuable to businesses in the Greater Philadelphia area. With more than a decade of experience analyzing and securing the networks of small businesses, the company is well positioned to offer this increasingly important kind of help. A 27-point, on-site audit conducted by a highly experienced technician will reveal any security issues or avenues for improvement for those who take advantage of the offer.

In addition to being one of the region's top security specialists, Xact IT Solutions offers a full range of other, equally valuable, Information Technology assistance. The company's many managed it services help client companies cut their costs while simultaneously benefiting from greater reliability and flexibility. The Xact IT Solutions hosted Microsoft Exchange offering, for example, relieves clients of the challenges of maintaining this critical piece of software themselves, while giving them access to the full range of the powerful system's capabilities.

Those interested in the new free, no obligation security audit offer can read more and sign up on the Xact IT Solutions web page, where full descriptions of the company's other proven services can also be found. Due to time and staff limitations, only the first five new customers who sign up will be eligible for the offer.
