A single agent, watching from inside the kernel. There is no proxy to put in the traffic path, no heavy agent to feed, and no extension to maintain again every time a new interpreter version comes out.
It sees the execution
The instant an attack executes, SHIELD sees it: the decoded webshell, the command being launched, the connection going out, the back door being written. Six planes watching from different angles and confirming each other. The one moment an attacker cannot hide is when they execute, and that is where SHIELD looks.
It contains it on the spot
As soon as the exploitation is real, it cuts it dead: denies the execution, kills the process, isolates the account, neutralises the file. Inside the kernel, not with a request block that always arrives late. And only on certainty: a suspicion stays a warning.
It attributes it to the account
It knows exactly which account, which process and which request started the attack. You isolate the compromised one without touching its neighbours, and you are left with the full case file to respond and to show what happened.
It does not compete on signatures. It plays a different game.
All the competition depends, at some point, on recognising what it has seen before. SHIELD does not: it sees the intent to execute. And the attacker cannot disguise that without ceasing to attack.
- Obfuscation buys the attacker nothing SHIELD sees the code the instant it is decoded in order to run.
- The 0-day, covered on day zero It does not wait for someone to write the signature; CVE or no CVE, the intent is the same.
- It contains, it does not just warn Once the attacker is inside, it cuts execution off and isolates them.
- It sees what the others do not Fileless attacks, rootkits, command-and-control, data exfiltration, persistence.
- All in a single trace Request → execution → file → connection, joined and attributed to the account behind it.
- It is not tied to one language Each stack's language is configuration data, not code. Today it covers all your PHP versions —5.x to 8.x side by side, with no blind spots— and admits whatever comes next.
- Your data never leaves home It decides inside the server, with the intelligence embedded. No dependency on anyone's cloud.
The difference in one line
Against Imunify360, BitNinja and Monarx
Everyone else recognises an attack by its shape —file, HTTP pattern, known IP— which is exactly why it can be evaded.
SHIELD
SHIELD recognises it by what it does when it executes, and the attacker cannot hide that without ceasing to attack.
See it on your own data
Deploy the agent on three servers and leave it in observation mode. Within days you will have the figures for your own traffic: what it would have detected, what it would have contained and with how much noise. Turning on blocking is a later configuration change, and it is your call.
