Website security provider StopTheHacker announced on Monday it has released version 3.7 of its website security tool, which features server side scanning capabilities like detecting website defacement, hidden spam and PHP shells.

This is the first major release of StopTheHacker since July 2012 when the company released version 3.3 of the website security product.

The main selling point of that particular version was its redesigned user dashboard that allowed for a more intuitive and streamlined approach.

“We designed this new release of our software based on the needs of our WebHosting partners. They saw an increase of infected websites of over 50 percent last year,” said Peter Jensen, CEO of StopTheHacker. “By extending our offerings with server side malware detection and removal technologies, we aim to extend the capabilities of our partners to offer better protection to their customers and reach new customer groups.”

Among some of the key new features of version 3.7 include the ability to detect phishing pages, hidden spam shells, hidden PHP shells, permission issues, and website defacement.

StopTheHacker has also increased the capability of its automated malware removal tool, which can now automatically remove more types of malware.

Version 3.7 of StopTheHacker also offers support of all major and local payment cards and currencies, simplifying the registration and billing process for customers.

In November, StopTheHacker announced it would provide malware detection for GlobalSign SSL certificate customers through a new partnership.
