Because at times, cybersecurity has (unfortunately) been a hot topic. Just think of the large-scale <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vrt.be\/vrtnws\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">DDoS attack against the government network Belnet<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>This is just one of the examples that once again made it very clear how important secure hosting is. That is why, last year \u2013 like every year, for that matter \ud83d\ude09\u00a0\u2013 Combell put in a lot of effort every day to keep your services as secure as possible.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Kanaal Z reportage over DDoS-aanvallen: Hoe Combell haar klanten beschermt\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Hye9vk17UKg?feature=oembed&hl=en&cc_lang_pref=en&cc_load_policy=1&modestbranding=1\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Combell Shield 2.0<\/h3>\n<p>As a user of our web hosting services, you have long benefited from our security shield that protects your environment. The Combell Shield stops malware, viruses and hackers and identifies security risks on your website.<\/p>\n<p>This year, the Combell Shield underwent a major upgrade. The 'Combell Shield 2.0' prevents attackers from even reaching your website's server: we added an extra component to the shield that screens all attacks, even before they reach your server. You can think of it as our 'digital bouncer'.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.combell.com\/en\/blog\/combell-shield-upgrade\/\"><strong>Get to know the Combell Shield 2.0<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">ISO 27701: your personal data are safe with us<\/h3>\n<p>Our new ISO certificate is a recognition that makes us extremely proud.

This allows us to stay one step ahead of real hackers and to provide unbreakable systems.<\/p>\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Service<\/h2>\n<p>Combell does not want to be just another anonymous hosting provider.

This makes a transfer to the cloud an even greater relief for companies, which can turn to a one-stop provider \u2013 Combell! \u2013 to make the switch.<\/p>\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">New colours and a TV campaign!<\/h2>\n<p>If you have visited our website lately, you have undoubtedly noticed it: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.combell.com\/en\/\">Combell<\/a>\u00a0has a fresh new look! In November, we launched our\u00a0<strong>'Go Big Online'<\/strong>\u00a0campaign to show online entrepreneurs that we are there for them, at every step of their development on the Internet.<\/p>\n<p>And that campaign also includes a TV advert!
