ModSecurity in Shared Web Hosting
We provide ModSecurity with all shared web hosting solutions, so your web apps shall be shielded from destructive attacks. The firewall is turned on as standard for all domains and subdomains, but in case you'd like, you will be able to stop it via the respective section of your Hepsia CP. You can also switch on a detection mode, so ModSecurity will keep a log as intended, but will not take any action. The logs that you'll discover within Hepsia are very detailed and offer info about the nature of any attack, when it occurred and from what IP, the firewall rule which was triggered, etcetera. We employ a set of commercial rules that are regularly updated, but sometimes our admins add custom rules as well so as to better protect the sites hosted on our servers.
ModSecurity in Semi-dedicated Servers
All semi-dedicated server solutions that we offer include ModSecurity and given that the firewall is enabled by default, any website which you build under a domain or a subdomain shall be secured straight away. An individual section inside the Hepsia Control Panel which comes with the semi-dedicated accounts is devoted to ModSecurity and it shall permit you to stop and start the firewall for any Internet site or switch on a detection mode. With the last option, ModSecurity won't take any action, but it shall still detect possible attacks and will keep all info within a log as if it were completely active. The logs could be found within the same section of the CP and they offer specifics about the IP where an attack originated from, what its nature was, what rule ModSecurity applies to identify and stop it, etcetera. The security rules that we use on our web servers are a mix of commercial ones from a security business and custom ones made by our system administrators. Consequently, we provide greater security for your web programs as we can shield them from attacks even before security corporations release updates for new threats.
ModSecurity in VPS Servers
ModSecurity is pre-installed on all VPS servers which are provided with the Hepsia hosting CP, so your web programs will be secured from the instant your server is ready. The firewall is turned on by default for any domain or subdomain on the Virtual Private Server, but if required, you'll be able to disable it with a mouse click from the corresponding section of Hepsia. You can also set it to operate in detection mode, so it shall keep an extensive log of any possible attacks without taking any action to prevent them. The logs are available in the same section and provide info about the nature of the attack, what IP address it came from and what ModSecurity rule was activated to stop it. For optimum security, we use not just commercial rules from a company operating in the field of web security, but also custom ones which our admins add personally so as to react to new threats which are still not dealt with in the commercial rules.
ModSecurity in Dedicated Servers
All our dedicated servers that are set up with the Hepsia hosting Control Panel come with ModSecurity, so any app which you upload or set up shall be properly secured from the very beginning and you won't have to stress about common attacks or vulnerabilities. A separate section in Hepsia will allow you to start or stop the firewall for every domain or subdomain, or switch on a detection mode so that it records information regarding intrusions, but does not take actions to prevent them. What you'll see in the logs can enable you to to secure your sites better - the IP address an attack originated from, what website was attacked as well as how, what ModSecurity rule was triggered, etcetera. With this information, you'll be able to see if an Internet site needs an update, if you should block IPs from accessing your web server, and so forth. In addition to the third-party commercial security rules for ModSecurity which we use, our administrators add custom ones as well when they find a new threat that's not yet a part of the commercial bundle.
