PROTECTION YOU CAN ADD

Website Security

Every Hostna server already sits behind our own hardening: the platform is patched, the firewall is ours, backups run, and TLS is issued and renewed for you. This page is about the layer above that — the things that protect the site itself, which no host can do on your behalf without your say-so.

Current prices and billing periods are shown in the panel, which is where the order is placed.

  • Malware scanning and removal
  • Application firewall and CDN
  • Daily backups with restore points (add-on)
  • Spam and e-mail filtering

What we do without being asked

These are not add-ons and never have been. They are the reason a managed plan costs more than a bare virtual machine.

  • The platform and its packages are kept patched
  • Free Let's Encrypt certificates are issued and renewed automatically on every hosting plan.
  • Network-level filtering in front of every server
  • Servers in Germany, under GDPR, with a data processing agreement you conclude in the panel
WHAT YOU CAN ADD

Four products, each solving one problem

They are sold separately on purpose. A brochure site with no forms does not need the same protection as a shop taking card details, and bundling them would mean charging the first customer for the second one's risk.

  • SiteGuard — scans the site for malware and cleans what it finds
  • Web Application Firewall + CDN — filters attacks before they reach the site, and serves it faster
  • Daily Cloud Backup — a copy kept off the server, so it survives the server
  • Spam & E-mail Protection — filtering on the mailboxes, in front of the inbox
INCLUDED

What you get either way

  • Add or remove any of the four at any time
  • Works on shared, WordPress, VPS and VDS plans
  • No setup fee
  • Billed monthly, yearly or three-yearly

An honest limit: no scanner catches everything, and no firewall makes a site invulnerable. What these buy you is a much smaller attack surface and a way back when something does get through. A backup you have tested is worth more than any of the rest.
