BitNinja

BitNinja is a Linux server security suite managed from a centralized dashboard. Its scanner monitors web files and uses cloud AI analysis to detect malicious PHP, webshells, and backdoors, with automatic quarantine available. The web application firewall inspects HTTP traffic and blocks SQL injection, XSS, CMS exploits, and other suspicious requests before they reach websites. BitNinja says its Defense Network shares attack information across protected Linux servers to block malicious IPs. Listed integrations include 360 Monitoring, cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin, Enhance, ISPmanager, and REST API endpoints. The site lists compatibility with Apache, NGINX, LiteSpeed, OpenLiteSpeed, Ubuntu, Debian, AlmaLinux, Red Hat, CentOS, and VzLinux. Intended users include hosting providers, server owners, VPS operators, and shared or dedicated server operators. Pricing is freemium, with a free plan, a 7-day trial, and paid access from $8/mo. The VPS Free plan is free for up to 2 vCPU, up to 2 GB RAM, and up to 10 hosted users. BitNinja is headquartered in Debrecen, Hungary.

Malwarebytes AdwCleaner

Malwarebytes AdwCleaner is a free Windows utility for detecting and removing adware, potentially unwanted programs and browser hijackers. It can also find unwanted software preinstalled on Windows computers. After scanning, you choose detections to quarantine and disable, then restart to finish cleanup; results also let you delete or restore items. The command-line interface can scan and list detections, scan and quarantine them, or uninstall AdwCleaner. Malwarebytes positions it for home users and technicians and distinguishes its focus from Malwarebytes Free, which also removes viruses, trojans, botnets and ransomware. Supported systems are Windows 11, Windows 10 and Windows 8.1; Windows XP, Vista, 7 and 8 are unsupported. Minimum requirements list an 800 MHz SSE2 CPU, 512 MB RAM and 10 MB free disk space. With a firewall, outbound port 443 access is required to three listed Malwarebytes or AdwCleaner service addresses. Suspected false positives can be submitted from scan results for specialist review. The Free plan is free.
