Source Code Monitoring

Source Code Monitoring is a critical aspect of website maintenance and security, ensuring that your website's source code remains unchanged and free from unauthorized modifications. PingWeb's Source Code Monitoring feature helps you detect and respond to any alterations in your website's source code, protecting your website from potential security threats and vulnerabilities.

How Source Code Monitoring Works

Source Code Monitoring involves regularly scanning your website's source code to detect any changes or modifications. PingWeb's monitoring system compares the current state of your website's source code to a baseline version, identifying any discrepancies or unauthorized alterations.

Setting Up Source Code Monitoring

  • Log In to Your Dashboard:
    • Access your PingWeb dashboard and navigate to the "Monitors" section in the left-hand menu.
  • Add a New Monitor:
    • Click on "Add New" and select "Source Code" from the list of monitor types.
  • Configure Monitor Settings:
    • Enter the URL of the website whose source code you want to monitor.
    • PingWeb will retrieve the baseline version of the website's source code for comparison.
  • Save and Activate:
    • Once you have configured the settings, save the monitor. PingWeb will start monitoring the website's source code immediately.

Real-Time Alerts

If any unauthorized changes or modifications are detected in your website's source code, PingWeb will trigger real-time alerts to notify you promptly. These alerts provide detailed information about the nature of the changes, enabling you to investigate further and take appropriate action to restore the integrity of your website's source code.
