CloudLinux Announces Partnership With Dewaweb To Provide AI-Powered Web Server Security For Customers In Indonesia

Palo Alto, CA (PRWEB) - CloudLinux, the leader in security and stability technologies for hosting providers, has announced that Dewaweb hosting company is offering cyber protection powered by the Imunify360’s artificial intelligence to Indonesian businesses of all sizes. Dewaweb is CloudLinux’s first partner in Indonesia to become the official reseller of Imunify360.

“Cybersecurity is an important issue that cannot be ignored in this digital era, where all your important data are at risk of being hacked or your system being interrupted by hackers, especially in the Asia Pacific region of the world,” said Edy Budiman, chief executive officer of Dewaweb. In May 2017, a massive attack by ransomware called ‘WannaCry’ has infected more than 200,000 computers in 150 countries, including Indonesia. Based on the news released by CBS News, losses caused by this ransomware were estimated to reach US$ 4 billion.[1

Microsoft stated in its “Asia Pacific Malware Threat Landscape 2017” infographic that Indonesia and Vietnam are more prone to cyber attacks compared to the other Asia Pacific countries (Japan, Hong Kong, Thailand, Philippines, Malaysia, Sri Lanka, and Singapore).[2 Indonesian president, Joko Widodo, on June 1st, 2017 released presidential regulation (Perpres) about the establishment of a national cyber agency. In line with this new regulation, Dewaweb improves its web hosting service quality in order to ensure cyber security in Indonesia by offering Imunify360 to their customers.

Imunify360 is an automated all-in-one security system with powerful machine learning technology to process all insights collected from servers all over the world to keep the system protected from the latest attacks. Imunify360’s six-layer approach includes sophisticated self-learning firewall, malware scanning, reputation management, and other advanced features to provide total protection against threats.

“We have seen an increased level of attacks targeted at many websites and applications hosted on our servers. We need a smarter and a more comprehensive security system to protect our customers’ servers and Imunify360 by CloudLinux is a perfect choice. It’s easy to deploy, manage and monitor, saving us a great deal of time.” said Edy Budiman, chief executive officer of Dewaweb.

A research and marketing consultant company CyberEdge Group released its Cyberthreat Defense 2017 Report showing an increase of cyber attacks from 76% in 2016 to 79% in 2017[3 . This report analyzed the survey done by 1,100 qualified IT practitioners in 19 major industries from 15 different countries. The attacks are influenced by three main factors, such as low awareness in the importance of cybersecurity, the lack of qualified personnel to handle that matter, and the massive amounts of data to be analyzed.

“These factors can be minimized with the help of the automatic security system that we offer to our clients,” added Budiman.

“The unfortunate truth is that today, most businesses can be attacked by at any moment,” said Igor Seletskiy, chief executive officer at CloudLinux. “Imunify360 was designed specifically to protect web servers from various attacks. It can greatly increase protection for Dewaweb’s clients and ensure they have an excellent hosting experience with Dewaweb.”

Seletskiy added, “We are very excited about this partnership. To be able to help Dewaweb in protecting businesses and web servers in Indonesia, and to create a safer web experience is our goal. We look forward to a long-standing relationship between our companies.”
