Upload Guardian (http://www.serverprogress.com/upload_guardian.php) is now available for DirectAdmin and cPanel servers! We have new leased license options for your convenience. How can you afford not to have protection on your server?

Now available for DirectAdmin servers!

What does it do?
Upload Guardian automatically performs a virus like scan on any FTP or PHP based file uploads to stop malicious file uploads such as bots, shell scripts, or other hacker like files. It will also scan all user accounts for malicious files on a schedule providing detailed logging and email reports.

Why do I need it?
Simple answer - peace of mind and extra protection.

Being a server administrator myself, I see websites and servers hacked a lot. The #1 reason they get hacked or a website gets modified? A insecure upload script or a compromised FTP account password. While Upload Guardian will not stop people from guessing your FTP password or magically fix a PHP hole, it will stop attackers from uploading shell scripts, bots and other nasties and notify the system administrator before any damage can be done!

You will also sleep better at night knowing you have automated protection plus you will have scheduled scans of ALL user files in every account knowing there isn’t a shell script mixed in someones pictures or a mass mail program sitting around!

I found an interesting link that compares 20 of the most popular web hosting providers, by overall speed and best uptimes. It’s interesting to see the results. Check them out here http://blog.mon.itor.us/?p=325

I found that Lunarpages has a hidden little gem on their website that they don’t want you to know about! It’s a hidden coupon - available at: http://www.lunarpages.com/lunarpages_coupon.php

The coupon saves you $26 off hosting, nice find for anyone who needs some quality hosting.

Enjoy!

If anyone is running cPanel with RVSkin, there is a new update that RVSkin released today to 7.12. The release fixes an important security issue in their software which I discovered and they patched after working with them.

 Everyone should updated ASAP. To my knowledge the hole isn’t known to the public and I hope it stays that way!

Cheers
