You don’t just need an all-in-one security – you need an collective

Software vulnerabilities are constantly being exploited and monetized. In fact, the number of new Linux malware programs increases threefold each year. Malware scanners focus on scanning and identifying infected files already on your system, but how do you protect against new security threats? The solution is Proactive Defense, an unprecedented defense against known and unknown attacks.

Proactive Defense protects websites running PHP, the most common programming language, against zero-day attacks. It identifies attacks on your Linux web servers in real time, then blocks potentially malicious executions automatically and with zero latency. Proactive Defense uses a unique method of identifying security risks – it analyzes what scripts do rather than what is actually in the code or file.

Millions of malware strains are focused on attacking web applications. Imunify360 identifies and stops them

PHP is the most popular scripting language, with more than 80% of server-side scripts running web applications. Because of this wide application usage, PHP is constantly exploited by hackers, making sites vulnerable. Popular CMS applications – including Joomla, WordPress, and Drupal – often introduce security flaws into web applications through the use of plugins and custom scripts, or when not updated to the latest version. Millions of different malware strains are focused on attacking those applications, yet, they all do the same thing. With only a few lines of code, hackers can inject malware, deface your site, or escalate privileges. We analyzed thousands of malware samples to develop heuristics to distinguish malicious behavior from an execution of legitimate scripts. We have tested Proactive Defense for false positives on most common CMS and e-commerce applications, and a large number of popular plugins. Due to the diversity of samples collected from websites all over the world, and thanks to the cloud heuristics of Imunify360, we have developed an exclusive and diverse database of insights that ensure the ultimate protection against attacks.
