At FireHost we are continually striving to make the secure hosting services that we provide to our customers even better, so that they can have the luxury of running securely and worry-free around the clock.

We are happy to announce our latest addition to the MyFireHost customer portal – Security View. Today is just the beginning of an impressive line up new features and enhancements that we’ll be integrating into our service in 2011.

Through Security View, you will have a front row seat to monitor your blocked attacks, in real-time with charts and graphs that help you visualize how frequently hackers attempt to breach your secure servers, websites and web-based applications.

Founder and CEO of FireHost, Chris Drake voices his concern for web security and the fundamental need for the new enhancements, “Most companies don’t realize how many attackers attempt to breach their websites and applications on a daily basis. We are so confident in our ability to block cybercrime that we’re opening the curtain and inviting our customers to see how well we protect their websites. Security View exposes the reality of cybercrime and lets our customers know we’re really looking out for them.”

Here a few of the key features Security View provides:

• View blocked application layer attacks (SQL Injections, XSS Attacks, Email Hoarding Events, Directory Traversals, and more)
• Sort and filter malicious activity by hour, day, week, month, or year
• View attack origins by region in real time, for each of your IPs
• Customize views to see attacks on your entire network, all the way down to an individual IP

Security View is a standard feature available to all customers with Secure Servers virtualized with VMWare. The next time you login to MyFireHost, simply navigate the tab labeled “Security” and check it out.
