Hosted.com® expands hosting security with Monarx and Imunify360 to help detect malware, monitor threats, and respond to zero-day and AI-assisted attacks.
CA, UNITED STATES, August 6, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — Hosted.com® has expanded security across its hosting platform with integrations from Monarx and Imunify360, strengthening website protection as businesses face faster-moving zero-day vulnerabilities, malware campaigns, and AI-assisted cyberattacks.
Online threats are becoming faster, more automated, and harder to detect thanks to AI and automation. Attackers can use them to scan websites, test for weaknesses, and adapt faster than ever. This increases the need for a secure hosting infrastructure that can identify suspicious or harmful activity early and respond before it can cause damage.
Zero-day vulnerabilities are security gaps that are not yet publicly known or fully patched. When they affect widely used website software, plugins, or themes, attackers may attempt to exploit them before updates to patch them can be applied. This can be especially difficult for small businesses, freelancers, and startups that don’t have dedicated teams or the technical knowledge needed to protect their websites from zero-day exploits.
Hosted.com® said its expanded security framework is designed to help reduce that exposure through automated scanning, server-level monitoring, traffic filtering, malware detection, file quarantine, backups, and support. The company has integrated Monarx and Imunify360 into its Web Hosting and WordPress Hosting services to support a more proactive approach to keeping clients’ websites safe from new cyber threats.
Monarx provides automated malware detection and response at the website and server level. It monitors for suspicious files, activity, and malicious code. These threats can be used to gain unauthorized access, redirect visitors to phishing sites, inject harmful scripts, or use compromised sites to distribute viruses and ransomware. When a threat is detected, Monarx helps isolate and remove affected files.
Imunify360 adds another layer of security by providing advanced firewalls, malware scanning, file quarantine, intrusion detection, and traffic monitoring. It also includes protections against web-based attacks like SQL injection and cross-site scripting, which target vulnerable sites, forms, databases, and Content Management Systems (CMSs) like WordPress.
The combination of Monarx and Imunify360 gives Hosted.com® a more proactive server security stack. Instead of periodic scans or acting after a site has already been affected, it monitors activity in the background, detects suspicious behavior, filters harmful traffic, and helps contain infected files.
This approach is increasingly important as AI-based cyber threats run at a much higher scale and speed. AI isn’t replacing traditional methods, but makes them easier to automate, test, and repeat. This means malware, phishing scams, software vulnerabilities, and unauthorized access attempts can happen faster and more often.
“Website security can’t depend on noticing a problem only after damage has already been done. With Monarx and Imunify360, Hosted.com® has added automated protection that helps detect threats earlier, including the types of AI and zero-day attacks that are becoming faster and more difficult to manage manually,” said Wayne Diamond, CEO of Hosted.com®
Hosted.com®’s Web Hosting and WordPress Hosting plans also include daily automatic backups, SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) Certificates, 1-Click Security, update tools, and export support. Backups help protect files, databases, content, and settings if a website is affected by malware, accidental deletion, failed updates, or other issues, providing a recovery option in a worst-case scenario.
The included SSL Certificates help encrypt data transferred between a website and a visitor’s browser, including login credentials, personal information, and payment details. This helps protect sensitive data from eavesdropping and interception while giving visitors trust signals that show the connection is secure.
Hosted.com® said its security suite is intended to make website protection easier to manage. Many people and small online businesses are expected to keep software updated, monitor for suspicious files, manage backups, and know how to respond to incidents even if they are just starting out. By combining automation with server-level security features, the company aims to reduce not just the manual overhead, but also the risk of breaches and human error.
The company said its focus is not limited to blocking individual threats. The aim is to provide a stable, secure web hosting environment through detection, prevention, isolation, recovery, and support. As zero-day vulnerabilities and AI-assisted attacks continue to become more common, Hosted.com® said website security must be built into the hosting platform rather than treated as something to be handled separately.
