Are you ready for anti-Black protection when the Spring Festival is approaching your website?

Every holiday, employees have a holiday, but hackers do not rest. During holidays, enterprise websites are attacked frequently. Is your enterprise website ready to be hacked? In order to prevent the nightmare from coming in the next year, it is also necessary for security management personnel to check the security of their corporate websites before the holiday to see if they are at risk of being attacked.

I. analyze the reason why the website is hacked

As the saying goes, "Know Yourself And know yourself" means a hundred victories. To protect websites, you must first understand why websites are attacked by others. Only in this way can we think of Solutions to cope with possible crises.

Cause 1: BOT needs.

Bots look tempting. However, in the eyes of our security managers, this is often synonymous with terrorism. This zombie is not a delicious food, but a remote computer with administrative permissions, usually a computer host remotely controlled by people. Bots can be various PCs or application servers. In one aspect, enterprise websites are a stepping stone that hackers prefer. Add some code to the enterprise website to help hackers find bots that can be controlled.

What's more, after a hacker attacks a website, a webpage Trojan will be mounted on the website. This Trojan can make the host that browses the web page poisoned and the Host becomes a zombie of others. Bots are used to prepare hackers for other attacks. If necessary, hackers can use these bots to initiate death Ping.

According to my understanding, mounting Trojans and discovering more bots are the main reason why most hackers attack Enterprise websites. This is the most convenient channel for enterprise websites.

Cause 2: prank.

Sometimes, our security management staff will find the enterprise website hacked. A survey found that only the home page was modified or some content not owned by the enterprise was added to the home page, without other destructive behaviors. These arbitrary tampering with enterprise website content are often attempted by cainiao-level hackers, or they have nothing to do.

Indeed, with the popularity of the Internet, the birth rate of hackers may be comparable to that of babies. So many cainiao must have an experimental base to become a master. Some websites with strict security protection are too difficult for cainiao. Therefore, they often look for enterprise websites with many vulnerabilities.

Don't underestimate these cainiao. They often have a relatively high damage ability. Because they are new users, they do not know the importance of starting an enterprise website. If they do not know it, it will bring a lot of damage to the company's website data. On the contrary, some senior Hackers often do not destroy website data too much to hide themselves. Otherwise, you will be exposed too early. In this regard, Senior hackers may be more cute in the eyes of our security personnel.

Cause 3: retaliation.

Some website attacks may be just a type of behavior that allows hackers to vent their anger and dissatisfaction. In particular, when an event occurs, some types of websites may become targets of hackers. For example, Israel's total attack on Gaza has triggered a flood of protests against Israel in many regions. At this point, if your company is owned by Israel, be careful. Maybe hackers have been staring at your company's website for a long time. They may attack your website when you are on vacation. At that time, your beautiful vacation will be interrupted.

Therefore, when a number of major political events occur, security personnel often need to follow their own corporate involvement in the event, determine whether your website is on the list of possible attacks.

Of course, there are many other similar factors. For example, some attacks aim to steal website information, while others may be unfair competition of business partners.

Ii. Preventive measures

It can be seen that many reasons may cause your enterprise's websites to become targets of hackers. To reduce the risk of your website being attacked, as a security administrator of an enterprise, You must contact your network administrator and hardware administrator, find a cost-effective and secure website security solution. In particular, during the days when attacks occur frequently during holidays, we need to strengthen protection for the website.

Preventive Measure 1: regularly back up data.

Even the most secure solution, there will always be vulnerabilities. The so-called high foot, grinding a high profile. When designing enterprise websites, we must have the worst plan. Do not trust your security solution too lightly and think that your website will never be attacked.

Therefore, from this perspective, I believe that even if your website protection work is really good, it is still necessary to regularly back up data. If your enterprise website is a static webpage, it is relatively simple. You only need to keep a copy locally after the website is updated. However, if your website involves some dynamic functions, such as allowing customers to place orders online or carry forums, you need to back up the website. Backup is required at least once a day. When your website unfortunately becomes a trophy for hackers, you can recover it in time. Minimize the adverse effects.

Precaution 2: server hosting.

Sometimes, if the enterprise's own security protection capabilities are insufficient, hosting the server is also a good choice. Enterprises can hand over their servers to professional operation departments for management, such as telecommunications. They often have dedicated security management teams. When your website encounters an unfortunate attack, they can quickly respond and take necessary measures to prevent the loss of your website.

Another advantage of server hosting is that these service providers often have a well-developed monitoring mechanism. They can detect signs when hackers attempt to attack, so that they can get ahead of the hackers and take measures. At the same time, they will also regularly upgrade the software, especially to provide good vulnerability solutions, so that hackers can seize the opportunity. In addition, if you host the server, even if the website is attacked, the other party is often responsible for fixing the problem. All you have to do is follow up and confirm.

Therefore, I believe that when the enterprise's IT strength is not strong, IT is a good idea to enhance its security if the website server is hosted.

Preventive Measure 3: Perform regular security checks.

I suggest you perform a thorough security check on your WEB servers before the Chinese New Year. For example, security management personnel can check the access logs of Enterprise websites to see if there are any suspicious access records. If necessary, check the server system to see if the latest patch has been installed; for example, you need to check whether a webpage Trojan is planted in the code.

Among them, the most important thing is to check the patch. In fact, more than 90% of attacks against websites are exploiting known vulnerabilities. Therefore, if our security personnel can ensure that all patches have been installed on the server, the chances of being attacked can be greatly reduced.

Before the holiday, I usually take a day to check the server's memory security. For example, I will use the vulnerability scanning tool to scan the server. Check whether any vulnerabilities have been patched. At the same time, I will close some unnecessary services for the sake of security as necessary. For example, the Enterprise WEB Server and Workflow Server are deployed on the same host. To improve website security, the workflow service is disabled. Because the website cannot be stopped on holidays. To be honest, if the website can be stopped, I will definitely stop it temporarily.

Preventive Measure 4: track the website operation in a timely manner.

During the price day, although the holiday has been completed. However, security management personnel still need to pay attention to the website. For example, you can use a remote tool to check the website running status every day. Such as the number of website visitors, server resource consumption, and network traffic. If there is any exception, you should promptly find the cause of the problem. After all, hackers are not invisible people, and they will surely leave a trace behind when they come to visit. Early discovery of their traces to prevent excessive damage to the website requires us to always pay attention to the running status of the website server, even on holidays.
