Our servers are locked down. Our setup provides many additional services and modifications to the default Operating System and CPanel installation which greatly enhances the security, reliability, and compatibility of our servers and software.

Firewall Protection

Advanced Policy Firewall (APF) is installed and configured. Ports which are not used by CPanel are firewalled off to maximize the security of our servers, the TCP/IP stack is hardened, and ICMP rate limiting is enabled to prevent DoS attacks. Additionally, Brute Force Detection (BFD) is installed which detects brute force attacks.

Anti-Spam / Anti-Virus Protection

Realtime Blackhole List (RBL) filtering is configured for anti-spam protection on your server. The configuration, and combination of nearly 10 blacklists, is designed to maximize spam filtering while keep false positives to an absolute minimum.

HTTP Intrusion Protection

ModSecurity intrusion detection and prevention engine is installed for Apache. This module increases web application security, protecting web applications from both known and unknown attacks.

HTTP DoS Prevention

DDoS-Deflate is installed for Apache. This module provides evasive action in the event of an HTTP DoS or DDoS attack or brute force attack and works well in both single-server script attacks as well as distributed attacks.
