Sectigo, a commercial Certificate Authority (CA) released Sectigo Web Security Platform to help businesses protect themselves from web-based threats.
Sectigo launched a new Sectigo Web Security Platform which is an all-in-one, proactive security solution for CMS. It brings together malware detection, malware removal, website patching, backup and recovery, Content Delivery Network (CDN) and Web Application Firewall (WAF). This cloud-based solution bundled with TLS/SSL certificates. That means for customers to easily identify threats and patch vulnerabilities for their CMS.
Proactive security solution for CMS
Sectigo Web Security Platform has a comprehensive management portal that provides automates daily scanning for vulnerabilities, receives proactive notifications and removes the malware found within the code, database, or files on the webserver. Furthermore, with this platform, it is possible to make automatically daily website backup.
Sectigo is planning to add advanced features to accelerate website performance with a global Content Delivery Network (CDN) and Domain Name System (DNS) and to increase protection with a Web Application Firewall (WAF). “Our research consistently points to security as the number one area of concern for companies working to optimize their cloud presence,” said Fernando Montenegro, Principal Analyst at 451 Research. He added:
“Expanding security coverage, leveraging automation, and consolidating web security functionality into fewer vendors are strategies that many organizations, particularly those with significant resource constraints, may benefit from exploring. Sectigo’s move into offering additional services beyond traditional certificate services fits well into this narrative.”

Sectigo Web Monitor which is available with all SectigoSSL, PositiveSSL, and InstantSSL certificates has special features including Sectigo Web Detect that automatically scans up to five website pages once daily, malware detection, vulnerability detection for monitoring a website daily for security vulnerabilities, SPAM and blacklist monitoring.
