The
new Next Generation security features ensure your data is as secure
as the gold in Fort Knox
“Over
the last decade, web based threats have become a major cause of
concern for businesses globally. Built on our years of intense
research on web based security, the Next Generation Security Features
on the Proactive Protection module provide strong and powerful
preventive measure against such attacks. Unlike the traditional
‘reactive’ way of handling threats, Next Generation
is ‘Proactive’ and can be used by anyone”.
- Sergey Rizhikov, CEO of Bitrix, Inc.
As
web based threats continue to increase, your data is vulnerable.
In fact, data security features significantly influence the choice
of a Content Management System. After all, your data is precious
as gold to you, right?
Bitrix
Inc., a leading CMS and Intranet Portal development company, today
announced the new Next Generation security features on its suite
of web based applications, including the Bitrix Site Manager and
the Bitrix Intranet Portal. The Next Generation security add-ons
are additional layers of security features that mitigate web based
threats and allow portal owners to freely host content and media
on their portals, without any fear of security breach.
Part
of the Proactive Protection module, these cutting-edge technical
and organizational measures allow combating malicious programs
that have either been identified or those that are still unknown.
The
new module includes number of tools:
Web
Application FireWall (Proactive Filter) protects the system from
most known web attacks. The filter recognizes dangerous threats
within incoming requests and blocks intrusions accordingly. The
Proactive Filter is the most effective way to guard against possible
security defects in any web project implementation (XSS, SQL Injection,
PHP Including etc.)
One-time
Password Technology (OTP) empowers the standard authorization
scheme. It requires a physical hardware token such as Aladdin
eToken PASS, ensuring that only the authorized have access to
the administrator panel.
Security
Panel with Security Levels allow choosing a security level appropriate
for your web project. This ensures only relevant individuals have
access to relevant parts of the portal.
Authorized
Sessions Protection. Most web attacks are designed to steal an
authorized user session data. However, Authorized Session Protection
makes such session hijacking ineffective since they cannot access
the browser session.
Activity Control protects from
DDoS attacks and bots.
Intrusion
Log. All events occurring in the system, including the unusual
or malicious, are logged. This gives the administrator the power
to discover attacks and intrusion attempts while they occur, so
he can riposte immediately and prevent intrusion.
IP-based
Control Panel pages. This type of protection strictly regulates
secure networks from which the users are allowed to access control
panel. By specifying restrictive IP ranges, only specific nodes
in the network can access the control panel.
Stop
Lists contain parameters used to restrict access to a site and
possibly redirect to a specified page. Any visitor matching the
stop list criteria (e.g. an IP address), will be blocked.
Script
Integrity Monitor verifies script integrity for any changes. Only
authorized script changes will be accepted.
Phishing
Protection protects from scripts attempting to acquire sensitive
information such as usernames, passwords, and credit card details
by masquerading as a trustworthy entity in an electronic communication.
The
Proactive Protection module is included in all the edition of
Bitrix Site Manager (except for Start) and Bitrix Intranet Portal.
You
can test the new functionality online in the Bitrix Intranet Portal
Virtual Lab and Bitrix Site Manager Virtual Lab or download the
30-day Trial versions of Bitrix Site Manager or Bitrix Intranet
