Ask your webhosting provider about hacked websites – he will tell you that they are a mass phenomenon and a major headache for his support team.
Online attacks changed: Today most of them are done by automatized bots targeting security holes in popular content management systems. Every new vulnerability in such a system leaves millions of websites open to attack until it they are patched.
While most websites contain only public information, the real target for hackers are their webservers’ resources: Did you know that most Spam emails are sent from hacked websites? Did you ever wonder how DDOS attacks are being generated?
How to battle hacked websites?
nimbusec solved this problem for webhosting providers and website owners alike. The team of the Austrian company Cumulo created nimbusec, a system that not only detects, but also resolves cyber-attacks. By integrating closely with hosting providers, nimbusec can automatize the complete abuse process. It detects attacked websites through server side scans and cloud scans, informs website owners and helps cleaning them up. If the attack was too severe for automatic clean up, Cumulo’s specialists help with their expertise.
