The 21st century has seen the rise & growth of Online markets. This increasing use of the Web comes hand in hand with a rise in virtual attacks on Sites. In fact, stats show that over 400 million Sites which are attacked every year. This next startup, ‘ActivShield’ is a platform that helps you control your Site traffic, thus shielding it from the “bad & unwanted guys”.
Also, this service protects your Site from competitors & copycats who prowl for product designs as well as customer data. ActivShield is developed in a way that ensures it’s fully compatible with your Site. In addition, it doesn’t require you to have any coding expertise to use it. After installing, it acts immediately by blocking or redirecting malicious traffic.
How ActivShield works:
To get started with ActivShield, the platform requires you to first create an account. After this, you’ll be able to access the widget. You are required to copy paste this widget, a 1-line script which you can use in the header or footer on your Website.
After inserting the widget, ActivShield is on. With this, the developers claim, you are able to enjoy 360-degree control of your Site. Therefore, you can see, block or even redirect anyone who visits your Site in real time.
For a free plan, ActivShield offers you “assisted setup”, while for a paid plan your site will be fully managed. According to the developers, it’s used on server side, hence has the ability to block malicious bots accessing your Site on a server level. On the other hand, the service offers functionality to block using geo-location, i.e., an IP address. In addition, it allows you to customize where a visitor is redirected when blocked.
This California, USA-based platform was developed under ActivShield, Inc. whose founder is Cariel Cohen.
