Which one should i choose, please let me know which one is good, but beleave me pyxsoft is really handy and graphical, even working fine but we have to pay for pyx every month, and in other cxs we have to pay one time ... but whats the best for security if we compare. i have used pyxsoft its quite instant to grab bad files. even no one upload bad things

Never heard of pyxsoft before and, judging by their forums -- 14 total posts, none newer than Dec 2013 -- they look pretty risky. Not much useful information on the website, either, so ... I would say a combination of CXS (which I use), mod_security and, in my case, some custom security, would be better than paying $10/mo for an unknown like pyxsoft.

pyxsoft is recommended with cPanel, you may find them in cPanel website, its really easy and gui based, but i have seen that CXS is command based and sometimes really complex and hard for user, but in other side, PSYsoft do not required anything to do, it runs like autopilot and show all attackers, and remove them. At the moment i am on trial and fixed several vps those who were facing compromised issues very easily. thanks

i am fond of pyxsoft, but the price should be lower for vps user or for those who have low price vps. anyhow i have never ever seen such great protection, its superb, great work by them. peoples really dont know about it, its really amazing app of cPanel. give great assurance of security.

The comparison is a little off. The makers of CXS also have plugins for http firewall and ModSec. Called CSF Firewall and their ModSec plugin. Two of the Most Popular Cpanel plugins. Also with CXS you can chose to quarantine or not to quarantine automatically. WP Brute protection is done with htaccess or ModSec rules. The Only two options I can't presently confirm are: Heuristic & Polimorphic recongitions And Advanced code analysis Advanced code analysis I think is included since CSX uses ClamAv defs and 6,000 additional defs. I could create a more accurate checklist that will blow away and the winner would be CXS running with Maldect. But I rather pick my nose..

For sure they won't say that are not so good like CXS. And don't forget you pay one time for CXS and you have everything, updates etc. 100% for CXS, and any app from Config Server. Regards

Great answer. Never hurts to double-up.

How bout the picking the nose? I'm big on that..

Doubling up on the nose picking is a great way to mimic a headcold. While I applaud your passion and gusto, I can't see myself adopting this as my newest habit. :-D
