Sites hosting illegal content, phishing, spamming etc are immediately disabled. We have some ddos detection and mitigation at a small level through CSF and Litespeed.

At the server edge we deploy a dynamic firewall, automatically updated based upon detected threats. A webapp firewall is updated daily to actively block malicious access attempts, and includes a variety of WordPress-specific rules. Virus/exploit scanning is run on any changed file, with automatic quarantining and proactive responses to compromised accounts. Virtual containers separate customers and hide the real root filesystem from user accounts. Various WordPress-specific security actions are taken, such as brute-force mitigation, automatic TimThumb updating, basic comment-spam protection, and more, updated as new WordPress exploits emerge. We will help restore hacked sites, either via manual and automated cleaning of the site, or restoration of a backup, depending upon the situation.
