Imunify360 Installation Guide

Imunify360 is a security suite designed to protect web servers from various threats. Here's a breakdown of the installation process, considering different control panels:

Prerequisites:

• A server with a compatible operating system (usually CentOS, RedHat, or Debian-based distributions)
• Root access to the server
• A valid Imunify360 license key (obtained from purchase or trial)

Installation Steps:

1. Download Imunify360 Installer:

• Access the Imunify360 customer portal (CLN) or visit their website to download the installer script. You'll need your license key for this step.

To start installation, run the following script with your activation key:

wget https://repo.imunify360.cloudlinux.com/defence360/i360deploy.sh
bash i360deploy.sh --key YOUR_KEY  

If you have an IP-based license, run the same script with no arguments:

wget https://repo.imunify360.cloudlinux.com/defence360/i360deploy.sh
bash i360deploy.sh 

2. Installation based on Control Panel:

Imunify360 offers integrations with popular control panels like cPanel, Plesk, and DirectAdmin. The installation process slightly differs depending on your control panel. Here's a general overview for each:

• cPanel/WHM:

  1. Login to your WHM interface.
  2. Navigate to "Software" -> "Imunify360" -> "Imunify360 Installation."
  3. Provide your license key and follow the on-screen instructions.

• Plesk:

  1. Login to your Plesk interface.
  2. Navigate to "Tools & Settings" -> "Security" -> "Imunify360."
  3. Enter your license key and proceed with the installation wizard.

• DirectAdmin:

  1. Login to your DirectAdmin interface.
  2. Navigate to "Admin Tools" -> "Imunify360."
  3. Provide your license key and follow the installation prompts.

3. Standalone Installation (without a control panel):

1. Connect to your server using SSH with root access.
2. Navigate to your home directory using cd ~.
3. Download the installer script using wget https://license.imunify360.com/ imunify360-installer.sh.
4. Make the script executable using chmod +x imunify360-installer.sh.
5. Run the script with ./imunify360-installer.sh and follow the on-screen prompts. During the installation, you'll be asked to provide your license key and configure various settings.

4. License Activation:

The installation process should automatically activate your license. However, you can verify activation by checking the Imunify360 interface within your control panel or using the command-line tool (imunify360-cli license-status).
