How Sucuri Protects Against Zero Day Threats
The Sucuri Firewall uses a multi-tiered approach to zero day threat protection.
Zero-day attacks take place when a software vulnerability is unknown to all parties interested in patching it—including the users, security researchers, and the team or developer responsible for maintaining the project.
Once a zero-day vulnerability is discovered, a window opens and leaves users open to attacks. This window exists until a security patch is developed, the security vendors release a virtual patch to protect against the exploit, or a proof-of-concept for the exploit is released.. These events change a zero-day to a known vulnerability.

The Sucuri Firewall is a cloud-based WAF that blocks hack attempts and mitigates zero-day threats to protect your website and traffic.
The firewall does not require any modification or installation to your web server. Instead, your traffic is redirected to the Sucuri network for filtering. A simple DNS change protects from a variety of security issues including DDoS, blocklisting, brute force attacks, SQL injections, and malware.
Our virtual hardening and patching technology defends your website environment. Constant research allows us the ability to prevent vulnerabilities and configure custom rules to meet your needs. Caching optimization, website acceleration, and Anycast CDN Firewall features mean you’ll also enjoy improved speeds and performance for your website.
Hackers discover new vulnerabilities every day. When a security flaw becomes known to bad actors, vulnerable websites can become compromised within a very short time frame. This is even more true for zero-day attacks. Our Web Application Firewall (WAF) and Intrusion Prevention System (IPS) prevents attacks before they ever reach your website
Built on a global network of secure data centers, our content delivery network makes websites run significantly faster. Our globally distributed Anycast CDN delivers your content via our proxy servers to save you bandwidth and improving your website’s performance.
Simply change your DNS A record to point to our Firewall’s IP addresses from your hosting provider. You can easily enable and manage key features from our intuitive dashboard. Direct access to our support team will ensure that you’re setup and configured within minutes.
