Expanding Security Measures: InMotion Hosting and Monarx Partnership
InMotion Hosting, a prominent player in the web hosting industry, is taking significant steps forward in enhancing its server security infrastructure. Since the commencement of their partnership with Monarx in 2021, both companies have steadily worked towards improving digital security measures. Recently, InMotion Hosting announced its decision to deploy the Monarx ThreatShield across its entire server fleet.
Enhancing Protection Against Modern Threats
The integration of ThreatShield is not merely an upgrade; it signifies a pivotal expansion in how InMotion Hosting protects its hosting platforms. ThreatShield adds a robust layer of security that operates directly within the application runtime. Unlike traditional firewalls that assess requests prior to reaching applications, ThreatShield monitors actual execution within the application itself. This crucial differentiation allows it to identify malicious activities more effectively, safeguarding against a range of modern threats including:
- - Cross-Site Scripting (XSS)
- - SQL Injection
- - Remote Code Execution
- - Brute Force Attacks
- - Credential Stuffing
- - Spam and Application Abuse
The proactive nature of ThreatShield extends security measures beyond individual website owner configurations, thereby offering a comprehensive defense mechanism across InMotion Hosting’s infrastructure.
Continuing Growth of the Partnership
The relationship between InMotion Hosting and Monarx has translated into tangible results; during their initial year together, the hosting provider observed a
40% reduction in security-related customer support cases. This collaboration has continually evolved, with Monarx becoming an essential component in detecting, blocking, and responding to malicious activities across InMotion’s hosting environment.
As Trey Faison, Director of Products at InMotion Hosting, stated:
“We were excited to be a part of Monarx's early development, and they have had an extremely large impact on how we manage security across our platforms.” Faison emphasized that deploying ThreatShield is a significant step toward consolidating advanced security measures into their infrastructure, enhancing the day-to-day reliability their customers expect.
Emphasizing Proactivity in Threat Management
In light of frequently evolving attack techniques, merely relying on established firewall rules is no longer sufficient. ThreatShield adopts a behavior-based methodology that operates at the execution layer, monitoring detailed activity within the runtime. By evaluating this internal behavior and synthesizing signals from the broader Monarx platform, ThreatShield effectively determines the nature of requests—identifying genuine threats even before traditional security measures can react.
Continued security innovation is imperative for InMotion Hosting as they strive to detect and neutralize emerging threats. Their dedication to providing robust security solutions reflects in their collaborative efforts with Monarx, aimed at minimizing the operational burdens associated with compromised websites.
