For many companies, this is a daily reality; cyberattacks tend to come from global networks of bots constantly looking for a crack.<\/p>\n<p>Including geo-fencing features in your hosting security plan offers a smart solution. Through virtual boundaries, you can divert this suspicious traffic along the road and make sure your servers concentrate on recognising genuine users. This decreases the chances of an unauthorised breach and simultaneously improves efficiency at another end.<\/p>\n<p>This blog discusses how geo-fencing works, its benefits, and viable ways of practically implementing it.<\/p>\n<h2 data-start=\"950\" data-end=\"999\">Understanding Geo-Fencing in Hosting Security<\/h2>\n<p>Geo-fencing in security hosting is similar to having a gate before the server. All the attempts to connect also come with an IP address indicating where it is coming from. Due to the geo-fencing policies, the server can accept, query, or reject the request depending on the country, region, or even the city where the request is originating.<\/p>\n<p>Geo-fencing provides additional security based on the location, as opposed to traditional firewall rules that block on the basis of static IPs or ports. You might, for instance, want to restrict access outside Asia if your business operations are exclusively located in Asia; this way, the unnecessary exposure to worldwide attacks is reduced.<\/p>\n<h2 data-start=\"1671\" data-end=\"1727\">Benefits of Adding Geo-Fencing to Hosting Plans<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"230\" data-end=\"504\">Cyberattacks often target servers indiscriminately, leaving businesses vulnerable to threats that don\u2019t even come from their target market. Geo-fencing helps businesses take control by filtering traffic at a geographic level. Here\u2019s how it makes hosting security stronger &#8211;<\/p>\n<ul data-start=\"506\" data-end=\"1205\">\n<li data-start=\"506\" data-end=\"714\">\n<p data-start=\"508\" data-end=\"714\"><strong data-start=\"508\" data-end=\"533\">Limits Attack Surface &#8211;<\/strong>\u00a0Most brute force attempts, malware injections, and denial-of-service attacks come from global botnets.

However, plan the rules carefully. Too strict limits would rule out legitimate users from outside of their country or remote staff. To avoid business disruption, consider making exceptions for known corporate networks or VPNs.<\/p>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><em><strong>Pro Tip:<\/strong>\u00a0Instead of completely blocking the traffic, run geo-fencing rules initially in monitoring mode.
