🆕AI Bot Blocker: Smarter Protection for Your Websites
Not every bot is your friend who will help you make your workflow smoother. Some bots can drag down your site’s performance, eat up valuable server resources, and even open the door to security risks. That is exactly why we rolled out the AI Bot Blocker – a new security feature that works on both NGINX and OpenLiteSpeed servers.
This tool automatically detects and blocks unwanted automated traffic, ensuring that your website’s bandwidth and resources are reserved for real visitors. It is a proactive way to keep your site running smoothly while reducing the risk of bot-related security issues.

🆕Global Settings: More Control Over File Manager and Adminer
To keep your server and site secure, having proper control is essential. With this update, users can now set a timer in both File Manager and Adminer. This timer will automatically disable access to these tools after they have been used. This feature, introduced based on user requests, adds an extra layer of protection by limiting how long File Manager and Adminer remain active, helping to reduce potential security risks.
While these tools are essential for managing websites, they can also pose security risks if left accessible when not in use. With the new global setting, you can turn them off platform-wide, minimizing vulnerabilities and keeping your hosting environment more secure.

Backing up your website is now even more flexible and secure with the new addition to the storage providers – Google Cloud Storage integration.
Users can now store their site backups directly on Google Cloud’s infrastructure, ensuring offsite protection against data loss. Whether you need to set up a disaster recovery plan or simply want a secure backup solution, this integration makes managing your backups easier than ever.
