How to ensure better data security across online business platforms?
Today, businesses are moving to online platforms more than ever as it provides enhanced connectivity, improved productivity and better integration across various departments in a company or organization. Also, the new generation of customers has a greater tendency towards ordering things online as it provides better freedom to choose from a large number of websites at competitive prices. But this has also led to a lot of cyberthreats in the forms of malware, ransomware, spams and other advanced forms of viruses that target the customers and the users through websites and emails.
Security is of utmost importance when business data is concerned, especially in an online scenario. And, the major element that decides the security of websites and emails is the efficacy of the server network on which they are hosted. Here, we will discuss the different possibilities for securing your online business data on web hosting platforms.
Daily malware scanning
Online threats that affect most business websites and emails include blacklisting, vulnerabilities that provide third parties access to sensitive data and malwares that can install themselves into users’ systems and hack confidential information. Businesses need to find solutions that can offer automated application scanning combined with professional manual testing to identify logical flaws in coding and application vulnerability.
Imunify360 is one such advanced, comprehensive security solution for web hosting platforms. It employs highly customized and integrated elements for instantaneous website protection and web server security. It’s not just an antivirus or web application firewall, but combines various components like Intrusion Prevention and Detection system, a Web Application Firewall, Real-time Antivirus protection, a Network Firewall, and Patch Management. These elements are seamlessly integrated for flawless operation that instantly identifies, resolves and protects the server network from any threats that it may encounter.
Advanced spam protection
Spam mails are a major distraction that consumes a lot of your time and server space. SpamExperts is an advanced email filter that scans and filters your incoming email from spam, viruses, phishing and other similar attacks using botnets and spammers with utmost accuracy, before it enters your inbox. It's precisely designed to avoid false positives, and it's continually upgrading to defend you from new vulnerabilities and threats.
SpamExperts doesn’t need any set up and works at the domain level to ensure maximum protection for all email accounts created with that domain. Once bought, the MX records are automatically updated and locked to ensure safety of your email accounts and all incoming mails are filtered through the spam filter.
DDoS protection
A distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attack is an intentional attempt to interrupt the regular traffic of a targeted server, service or network by deluging the target or its surrounding infrastructure with a high internet traffic. Cloudflare is a security solution that ensures the reliability of your websites, APIs and applications and protects your internal resources such as behind-the-firewall applications, teams, and devices. It also provides security by protecting websites from malicious activity like DDoS attacks and other malicious intrusions, apart from allowing website owners to easily insert applications into their websites without the need to be a developer.
SSL certificate
An SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) certificate is a digital certificate that validates a website's identity and enables an encrypted connection over the internet. It creates an encrypted link between a web server and a web browser. SSL certificates are very important for the websites of companies and organizations, especially if they engage in online money transactions, to keep customer information private and secure.
