Many hosts automatically scan and fix their clients sites and have been doing that for a while. Specially when you are talking about popular CMSs like WorPress, Joomla and drupal.
thanks,
Again, what you guys are doing is great, and I don't want to take that way. My only point is that you were not the first and some have been doing that for a while.
thanks,
Well, please, then already describe how it works. And don't forget technical details as we're quite technical 'round here..
That said, I think the article is an odd mixture of business-speak and nerd-speak. As a coder, I'd like to know whether it fixes my handwritten SQL injection vulnerabilities too (probably not). My boss, however, probably will need a simpler version to get the point.
On a technical level it differs primarily on that it's not an external service that can only start responding after the website has been hacked; they treat the damage caused by a successful hack instead of preventing the hack in the first place. Because we can scan the code itself, we can actually patch vulnerabilities before they are being exploited. The beauty is in that we do not do "normal" updates but just patch the vulnerabilities in a non-obtrusive way, this prevents the website to fail because of incompatibilities.
Does this mean you're writing your own custom patches for every single versions of the software solutions you're supporting ?
What does this mean? Can you perhaps explain the service? Are these patches based on Drupal/Joomla security releases?
Can it fix bugs and write a few new features for me too?
