Release Notes: ImunifyAV(+) v6.3

IMAV-major-release

We’re pleased to announce a new version of ImunifyAV. Version 6.3 is now available. The following features are new in the v6.3 release. Discover more features in the Imunify360.

  • cPanel on Ubuntu 20.04
    Starting from version 6.3 we added support for the cPanel control panel on Ubuntu 20.04 LTS. 
  • Recommended security setting
    We believe our recommended security setting will have a positive effect on a server’s overall security.

This is what we updated in version 6.3: 

cPanel on Ubuntu 20.04

We are happy to announce that in ImunifyAV version 6.3 we added support for cPanel running on Ubuntu LTS 20.04. With this change, we ensure that everyone who would like to use this popular and reliable version of the Ubuntu OS will be able to do so. The Ubuntu OS has benefits for a whole list of purposes. For example, Ubuntu may be considered better suited than other Linux distributions for developmental tasks and application hosting projects that employ a set of the latest technologies. Similarly, the single-user servers owners find it useful. Also, the feedback we collected shows that cPanel running on Ubuntu is a fairly frequently utilized configuration, therefore we eagerly extend our support for cPanel running on Ubuntu. 

LTS stands for Long Term Support, which means that this OS version will be supported and continually updated as well as patched by the vendor at least for five years after its release, free of charge. Summarizing, using an Ubuntu LTS version gives users a reliable, safe and predictable experience, which is exactly a set of characteristics one is looking for in a server environment. 

Recommended security setting

In version 6.3 we promote a feature that benefits optimal security configuration. We recommend you switch on the ELF malware detection setting (more details on the feature can be found in Imunify360 4.4 release notes). Additionally, the feature will be promoted using Advisor. We feel that this feature deserves to be promoted since switching it on will reduce the infection rate and enhance protection.
