Website Security + Backups

Protection before trouble. Recovery when you need it.

Hostmate combines Layer 3, Layer 4 and Layer 7 DDoS protection and Imunify360 malware protection with JetBackup self-service restores and mCloud Backup nightly server images to help protect hosted websites, email and account data.

Layered Protection

Network protection, hosting security and two backup systems.

No single tool does everything. Hostmate uses separate systems for DDoS mitigation, malware protection and data recovery.

01

Imunify360

Server-level security with malware scanning and cleaning, real-time file monitoring and a web application firewall.

02

JetBackup 5

Backups run daily with 3 months retention, with self-service restore or download access through cPanel for files, databases, email accounts and other account data.

03

mCloud Backup

A nightly server image provides a separate backup layer behind the hosting environment.

JetBackup 5

Restore files, databases, email or the whole account.

JetBackup runs daily with 3 months retention and is available inside cPanel, so you can restore data without waiting for a manual server restore.

You can restore a full account or target the part you actually need, including individual files and folders, databases, database users, DNS zones, SSL certificates, email accounts, FTP accounts and cron jobs.

Keep Your Own Copy

Download backups for safe keeping.

JetBackup backups can be downloaded to your computer, and cPanel also provides a separate Full Account Backup option.

Keeping your own external backup gives you another copy outside the hosting account. Full cPanel backups can be created when sufficient account disk space is available, downloaded, then removed from the hosting account to free the temporary storage they used.

GOOD PRACTICE

Keep an external backup too.

Server-side backups are an important recovery layer, but keeping your own downloaded copy provides additional protection and control over your data.

mCloud Backup

A nightly server image behind your hosted data.

JetBackup provides convenient customer-facing restores. mCloud Backup operates as a separate backup layer with a nightly server image, so Hostmate is not relying on a single backup platform.

The two systems have different roles: JetBackup is designed around accessible cPanel recovery with daily backups and 3 months retention, while mCloud Backup adds nightly server-image protection behind the hosting environment.

Imunify360 + True DDoS Protection

Protection at the network and hosting layers.

Layer 3, Layer 4 and Layer 7 DDoS protection helps filter attack traffic before it reaches the hosting environment, while Imunify360 helps identify malicious files and provides a front-line defence against website compromises.

Files and account data are scanned on an ongoing basis. New or modified files can be checked as changes are detected, including files uploaded through the web, File Manager or FTP. Hostmate also runs scheduled account scanning.

Imunify360 works alongside the hosting web application firewall and True DDoS protection to reduce risk before recovery is needed.
