We are happy to introduce free Virusdie for ISPmanager. The trial version of this solution is able to check security of your website and helps avoid potential failures. The module can also scan the server for viruses and create a report on the infected files.
Why it is so important to scan your website for viruses
Web servers can be exposed to viruses just like standard home PCs: trojans, redirects, malicious code in system files, just to name a few. By using them, hackers can steal credit card numbers or content, block websites of their competitors, or redirect traffic to the online casino.
Google Search shows around 50 mln alerts about the infected websites visited by users every day. Owners of websites often find out about the virus only after traffic is down or website is blocked by the hosting provider.
Solution
Use Virusdie antivirus in ISPmanager to avoid such cases. You can start with the trial version which allows scanning your website for viruses to make sure it is secure. Virusdie can create a detailed report if any virus was found. In order to cure the infected files automatically and keep your server online, upgrade to the extended version of Virusdie.

Virusdie extended version: cure, plan, exclude
File disinfection is the key feature of the extended version of Virusdie. Timely identification and disinfection can guarantee stable operation of the website. The module will check your website, clean it from malware, find the malicious code in files, and protect from network threats, XSS attacks, and SQL injections.
Automatic curing provides three options: curing, putting in quarantine, and deleting the file. When curing, Virusdie delete parts of the code and adds the missing parts to ensure that the website would stay online, if required.
