Imunify360 is a comprehensive security platform for servers used for web hosting. The system features highly customised and integrated functionalities for proactive real-time server and website protection. We at NEOSERV have chosen to use this advanced solution that takes the security of your websites to a much higher level.

Imunify360 is much more than just an antivirus or WAF, it combines an intrusion prevention and detection system, a web application firewall, real-time antivirus protection, a network firewall and patch management components. These elements are seamlessly integrated into an interconnected whole that instantly detects, patches and protects against cyber threats that a web hosting service may encounter.

We chose to implement a comprehensive security solution on our servers because Imunify360:

• offers a complete set of security features to protect websites and servers,
• offers real-time protection against a wide range of cyber threats,
• regularly updates its database to ensure it is always ready for new vulnerabilities,
• makes it easy to manage security features in the cPanel dashboard,
• provides the ability to proactively manage and respond to potential security threats.

Below you will learn more about the benefits, performance and functionality of this advanced security system, and in a separate article we have also provided instructions on how to use Imunify360 in the cPanel dashboard.

Multilayered server and website protection

Imunify360 provides layered server and website protection. With its intelligent threat detection and prevention system, it shields your network from attacks, protects web applications from vulnerabilities and regularly scans and removes malware.

• At the network level, Imunify360 uses an intelligent system to detect and prevent attacks at the network level. This includes protection against DDoS attacks, suspicious web traffic patterns and other network threats. The system detects unusual activity and blocks suspicious IP addresses, ensuring that the network remains stable and secure.
• Application-level protection in Imunify360 is designed to detect and prevent a variety of web attacks that target specific vulnerabilities in web applications. This includes attacks such as SQL injection ( SQL injection) attacks against databases, cross-site scripting ( XSS) and similar techniques that can be executed through web interfaces.
• File-level: Imunify360 offers file-level protection by actively scanning and identifying malicious content and malicious files. This includes the detection and removal of malicious scripts, Trojans, viruses and other unwanted content that could compromise the integrity and performance of the server.

All three layers work as a whole to provide comprehensive server and website security.

How Imunify360 works

Imunify360 acts as an invisible shield around your website, constantly scanning for malware, viruses and other suspicious activity. If it detects malicious activity, such as a web attacker trying to break into your website, it immediately blocks it.

This could be likened to a security monitoring system that immediately reacts to a threat and prevents it from happening.

• Entry point monitoring: Just like a security system that monitors the doors and windows of your home, Imunify360 monitors the entry points to your website. It keeps an eye on who is trying to enter at all times.
• Detecting suspicious activity: If a burglar tries to force his way into the house, the security system immediately detects this unusual activity. Similarly, Imunify360 detects suspicious activity on a website, for example when someone tries to guess the password to log in to the administration.
• Triggering an alarm: When the security system detects suspicious activity, it does not hesitate to trigger an alarm. Immunify360 does the same, by blocking the attacker’s access to the website.
• Isolation and removal of danger: If the security system detects that an intruder has successfully entered the house, it can lock the intruder in a room until they are apprehended. Imunify360 quarantines the malware code on the website so that the virus cannot cause further damage. It also performs the function of cleaning or removing the malicious code.
• Constant monitoring and updating: Just as a security guard regularly monitors the premises, Imunify360 constantly scans the website to make sure everything is safe. At the same time, it updates itself with new information about viruses and malicious codes to better protect the website.

Imunify360 is like a vigilant security system for your website, protecting it from online attacks at all times and taking steps to keep your online “house” safe. It’s a digital security guard that works non-stop to ensure your online property stays protected from cyber threats.

Imunify360 functionality

By using Imunify360’s comprehensive security solution, we at NEOSERV have ensured that your website has a set of tools designed to provide advanced protection against intrusions, malware and other cyber threats.

• Web Application Firewall (WAF): this system filters and blocks malicious traffic before it reaches your website. It protects against common web application vulnerabilities such as SQL injection attacks, cross-site scripting (XSS), and more.
• Intrusion Detection and Prevention (IDS/IPS): IDS/IPS scans server traffic for suspicious activity and potential threats. It can block suspicious IP addresses and mitigate various attacks, including DDoS attacks.
• Malware scanner: Immunify360 regularly scans websites for malware. It can automatically isolate or remove viruses, malicious code and compromised files to prevent further damage.
• Real-time security updates: the system automatically receives updates to identify malicious code and patch security holes, keeping you up-to-date on the latest security threats.
• Proactive protection: immunify360 takes a proactive approach to security, which means it identifies and blocks potential threats in real time. This helps prevent zero-day attacks and new threats.
• Protection against brute force attacks: The security solution provides protection against brute force attacks by monitoring login attempts and blocking IP addresses that indicate suspicious activity.
• Reputation management: Imunify360 maintains a database of known malicious IP addresses, which it uses to identify and block access from these sources. This prevents attacks and contributes to better server security and integrity.
• Email notification: The system can send email notifications to server operators and website owners when security events occur, such as malware detections or suspicious login attempts.
• Centralised dashboard: immunify360 offers a centralised dashboard that allows server managers to manage and monitor security settings and activity across multiple websites and servers.
• Statistics and reports: Imunify360 also provides detailed statistics and reports on security events, enabling administrators to analyse and respond effectively to cyber threats.

As you have seen, Imunify360 is a robust security solution that combines advanced functionality and ease of use to provide comprehensive protection for servers and websites. Proactive protection with regular updates, real-time threat detection and prevention ensures that our servers are always safe from the latest cyber attacks.

By integrating Imunify360 on NEOSERV servers, we ensure that your websites are always protected against existing threats and prepared for future challenges.
