ST. LOUIS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

NorseCorp, the provider of live cyber threat intelligence solutions to reduce eCommerce fraud, secure high-value data, and better secure enterprise networks, today announced the launch of IPVenger, the first live cloud security solution for web content management systems.

Powered by Norses IPViking live cyber threat intelligence, IPVenger is a plug-in and SaaS security service for open-source CMS platforms and will first be available for WordPress, with Drupal and Joomla! versions to follow. IPVenger protects websites from malicious and high-risk Internet traffic and blocks comment spam, malware, botnets and zero-hour exploits. IPVenger adapts to new threats automatically, assessing the risk level of any IP address attempting to access a website and blocking those deemed malicious or high risk.

The biggest shift in Internet security over the last decade is the surge in cybercrime and malicious hacking from automated hacking programs and botnets. WordPress, which powers nearly 70 million websites, has become a prime target for hackers and cybercriminals, and IPVenger is designed to significantly reduce the vulnerability of WordPress developed sites operated by individuals, small and medium businesses, enterprise-level companies, agencies and organizations responsible for multiple domains. IPVenger represents an important new layer of protection in Web security and gives website owners and operators a more effective defense against zero-hour vulnerabilities and threats by identifying and blocking threats before they can enter a site to cause damage.

Todays security solutions lack the computing power to process the massive volume of Internet security threats that are out there and constantly changing, said Tommy Stiansen, CTO of NorseCorp. IPVenger makes it possible for small site operators and large companies alike to secure their websites more effectively than ever by using our live cyber threat intelligence to block malicious and high-risk traffic.

Benefits of IPVenger

IPVenger protects WordPress sites from malicious and high-risk site traffic and continually adapts to the ever-changing cyber threat landscape, meaning its protection is never out of date. The major benefits of IPVenger for website owners and operators include:

"IPVenger has provided us the added security at an individual site level that we needed to assure the safety of our customer sites, as well as their data," said Kayle McLean, developer for goBRANDgo!, a Web development and marketing agency.

As part of the launch of IPVenger, Norse will be sponsoring and supporting upcoming WordCamp events including Atlanta (March 15th-16th) and San Diego (March 23-24th) as well as publishing an eBook, WordPress Security: Making your Site Safe in a New Era of Cyber Threats, designed to help beginner and novice WordPress users better secure their sites and blogs.
