The new business season has started strongly. Our company is constantly looking for new, more innovative and creative ways to improve website stability, security and performance. Imunify fits directly within that mission.
Imunify’s main functions include filtering fake accounts and bots, reducing malicious traffic, and generally providing a higher level of security in these areas. This helps conserve server resources and reduces the amount of time users spend dealing with unproductive activity.
In addition to its strong malware scanner, Imunify360 blocks incoming messages and requests in a more adaptive way, meaning it can better fit the environment and its needs. While the Imunify360 firewall protects the server from attacks, the security system also scans every change to the server file system. If it detects any kind of virus, the system immediately quarantines it to prevent it from spreading. Even if a malicious file is uploaded by some method, the Web Application Firewall can still prevent it from becoming active. After detection, the antivirus can remove it from the server entirely.
BitNinja remains available for Dedicated CPU server users.
Discover Imunify360
Imunify360 is designed for immediate response and protection on Linux web servers. Its functionality goes beyond a typical antivirus or WAF. It uses a six-layer approach designed to provide comprehensive protection against threats such as brute-force and zero-day attacks. It also includes an Intrusion Prevention and Detection System, Web Application Firewall, real-time antivirus protection, a network firewall and patch-management components.
Imunify360 security for your website
Security is a top hosting priority, which is why we use every available method to protect your website and information. This is one of the reasons customers choose our services instead of competitors. Imunify360 stands out through its automated functionality and by combining several security tools into one system. One especially important feature is that Imunify360 shares attacker IP addresses across the server environment, helping us defend against them proactively.
Protection from spam and bots
Imunify360 blocks unwanted bots, preventing them from attempting to guess your password or discover weaknesses in the system. It also blocks automated registrations and spam comments on your websites.
Scanning for malicious files
There are many reasons why a website can become infected. The most common include:
• Outdated scripts - outdated scripts are naturally more likely to contain vulnerabilities, which is why they must be updated. For WordPress, this includes the core, plugins and themes.
• Untrusted and pirated scripts - these types of scripts very often contain malware. When they are used, malicious files can spread quickly across websites and hosting accounts. FastGuard helps address this problem by isolating users from one another.
• Poorly written scripts - always review ratings and feedback for scripts, plugins, themes and modules before using them on your website. Also keep in mind that some scripts may be intended for a particular hosting provider and may not work elsewhere.
The virus scanner finds malicious files and handles them carefully. With one action, you can protect against reinfection and receive a detailed report.
Reputation monitoring
Imunify360 checks multiple sources to determine whether your websites or IP addresses have been blocked or blacklisted. If you do not continuously monitor your website’s reputation, you may discover a blacklist issue only weeks or months later, which can interfere with business activity. Google can blacklist websites that contain malware and remove them from search results. Imunify360 can notify you when such problems occur.
False alarms
Administrators who use monitoring software rely on it to provide accurate information. One of the main goals of this type of software is to reduce the chance of false alarms. Any system that cannot provide this level of accuracy consumes unnecessary administrator resources.
Imunify360 is designed to place minimal demands on administrators. It is continuously optimized and pays particular attention to reducing false positives so this problem can be controlled more effectively.
How to use Imunify360
Imunify360 can be installed and, as a user, you do not have additional obligations. The system works automatically as intended, and all included modules are there to support your protection.
Conclusion
CloudLinux has significantly changed hosting management, and we place strong trust in Imunify360 and the team behind it. Automated security and continuous development, supported by information gathered from servers around the world, significantly increase the level of user protection. This also provides peace of mind, knowing that applications are better protected and the overall hosting experience is improved.
