Anti-Virus for Email

Emails have become one of the most popular means of communication over the Internet, therefore the security aspects on email services are very important. In addition to the importance of having a good anti-virus software on our email clients and workstations, it is equally important to have a good anti-virus system which can scan emails going through the mail server and block it before being downloaded by the users.

If you are using hosting control panel such as cPanel or DirectAdmin, ClamAV antivirus is already included — just need some additional steps to activate the integration with Exim, the mail server being used by the control panels. Even if you are not using the control panels and run stand-alone mail server such as Postfix or Exim, you can always engage our system admin services for us to install ClamAV anti-virus and integrate it with your mail server for you.

Firewall Services: Dedicated, Shared and Host-Based

The purpose of a firewall is to reduce or eliminate unwanted network communications and allow valid communication to flow freely. Firewalls are placed between your network and the internet, protecting it by filtering incoming and outgoing network traffic. Firewalls analyze data such as packet header, protocol type, source address, destination address, source and/or destination ports, and block or drop traffic that does not match preset rules. Firewalls can also filter access to external networks, establish secure VPN connections for hybrid cloud functionality. Newer firewalls, now called Next Generation Firewalls (NGFW), also act as both traditional firewall and deliver IDS/IPS features.

A managed shared or dedicated firewall service is a firewall device, such as a Fortigate from Fortinet, installed between your private network at SimplerCloud’s data center and the Internet. The Dedicated Firewall management service comes with free consultation, policy configuration and rule management on a regular basis.

If your server is on the Internet but not within its own private network, you can still deploy firewall-like protection for your server. Host-based Firewalls, such as iptables for Linux or Windows Firewall for Windows, can be set up for Virtual Machine plans that are not within their own VLAN, such as server plans from the Simple and Custom Cloud range. Host-based firewalls can also be installed on individual VMs within Private Clouds. Hybrid and private cloud platforms can deploy shared or as direct firewall in front of private cloud networks in our data center.

Intrusion Detection and Prevention Services

Intrusion Detection and Prevention Systems both work by actively monitoring network traffic and/or system logs for suspicious patterns. For example, multiple failed login attempts to your server from an external IP — may be from a country where your organization does not have any presence on — will trigger IDS/IPS system alert. Once triggered, IDS/IPS will automatically send alerts to a specified contact, for example the system administrator, and the IPS will also integrate firewall-like functions to make active changes to block the suspicious traffic or activity. IDS/IPS contains databases of regularly updated attack signatures and it compares the inbound traffic against to the database. The main function of an IDS product is to warn you of suspicious activity taking place so that necessary follow up action can be taken.

All SimplerCloud’s managed dedicated firewall services already include IDS and IPS capabilities, and configuration of IDS/IPS is included under our managed dedicated firewall service. For SimplerCloud servelet ranges like Simple Cloud, Custom Cloud and Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) plans, customers can subscribe to our Managed Host-Based IDS/IPS Service. The service includes installation of a host-based IDS/IPS agent on your server, which will send system logs and traffic information to our centralized IDS/IPS server. It will detect any suspicious traffic and automatically send email alerts to a designated email address (for example, your system administrators) and at the same time, automatically block the offending source IP from reaching your server.

Setup: $50
Monthly: $30

Notes:

Penetration Testing – Web Application

All services covered by the above Vulnerability Scan Assessment, plus:

• Scanning the websites and the web applications by simulating how a real attacker would penetrate the website. This includes crawling and attacking the target web applications, web services, and web APIs available through HTTP/HTTPS.
  
• Emulate hacking attacks on the stated website, performing penetration tests to discover attack surfaces and perform security testing.
  
• Checking target website for thousands of vulnerability variants such as SQL injection and cross-site scripting (XSS).

• Identifying vulnerabilities and issues, and provide recommendations to fix the issues. We also provide proof of exploits for each of the identified vulnerabilities and issues.

Methodology:

1. Information Gathering

Firstly, we use the penetration testing tools like Netsparker to gather information about the target web server. We do this by configuring the scanning policy to do crawling, without attacking. We analyze the information generated and use it to fine-tune the scanning policy to improve the vulnerability scanning and penetration testing process, according to the web application’s settings and platform.

2. Vulnerability Identification, Exploitation, and Post-Exploitation

In the next stage, we simulate attack mode by performing the following actions. In addition to crawling, we will simulate a real attacker who attempts to identify vulnerabilities and exploits and tries to exploit the vulnerabilities without causing actual damage to the system, by using “proof-based scanning technology” to validate any findings and eliminate false positives.

We might run another re-crawl of the site to ensure that all items discovered are valid, and any newly discovered paths are validated. Lastly, we validate the findings further by generating exploits at runtime, just like how an attacker would attack the web application. The penetration testing tool helps us to figure out how to bypass, how to exploit the vulnerability, and then exploits it safely without causing damage to the system.

In a post-exploitation stage, we also use the tool’s Proof-Based Scanning Technology to validate a finding by exploiting it and providing proof-of-exploit or proof-of-concept in the finding details.

Below is the list of security standards we are using:

• OWASP 2013
• OWASP 2017
• CWE
• WASC
• ASVS 4.0
• NIST SP 800-53
• DISA STIG
• ISO27001

3. Reporting

We will generate a comprehensive Penetration Testing report based on the outcome of our penetration testing and analysis. This includes the security status of the target web application, what vulnerabilities are found, and how we can fix the issues.
