How to protect your website from hacking

Protection of the website from hacking and various hacker attacks is a very relevant topic in our time. Attackers often try to attack online stores or various information portals. We already acquainted you with one of the types of hacking tricks - DDos-attack. If you have not read this article yet, you can read it here.

The objectives of such attacks are very different. One of the most unpleasant things is blocking the site for blackmail. Hackers are ready to unblock the website only when you pay them and far from the fact that after payment they will return everything as it was. If you have an online store, computer thieves can retrieve information about your customers, such as credit card numbers, address, personal information that are specified while ordering. We will help you avoid hacking the site and protect it from intruders.

Of course, there are such methods of hacking the websites that you alone can not cope with with them and it is difficult to defend them, but observing the precautionary measures you will not be such a "tasty morsel" for intruders. Let's analyze the most common tricks and traps of computer thieves and ways to deal with them.

Hacking the website platform

The problem itself is already described in the title. The platform of your site is hacked, where all information is stored and stored. Most often this type of hacking is used when the site is on those platforms that are poorly protected.

To protect yourself from hacking the platform, you should use complex programming languages ​​when creating a site, it's also best to place information on those servers that do not have an exit from the internal network. You can also add user authentication.

Cracking passwords

To do this, special scripts are used that read everything that you type on the keyboard. You can secure yourself from this disaster. Set complex passwords that use uppercase and lowercase characters.

Defenseless computer

No matter how stupid it can sound, but you need to put antivirus programs and constantly update them. A computer with weak protection is an easy prey. You can bring the virus in and not even notice it, and in the meantime all the working information will merge onto the computers of the attackers.

Brutus

Do not be scared of this word if you hear it for the first time. Brutus is the same password cracking, but in a slightly different way. Here the password is extracted by the selection method. Complex passwords are not easy to pick, but if you use a date of birth or a name, it's much easier to pick it up.

Also, it is recommended to use different passwords on different accounts, after all having picked up one password hackers search at once a server where else it can be used. This applies to passwords from FTP, database users and accounts on the site.

Hacking without hardware

A rare case, but it is possible. It is built on communication directly with you. Attackers are represented by technical support personnel and lure you of passwords. It's up to you. It's worth to be very attentive to those to whom you name your passwords and access to the site admin area.

Also, to protect yourself from hacking you will help:

  • moderating the site, because the administrator or moderator keeps track of all the processes on the site every day and can quickly react to the attempted hacking;
  • protocol SSl, which provides a safe transfer of information between the server and the user's browser. Data is transmitted in coded form. The unlocking process for hackers is long and problematic;
  • regular site scanning. It is worth to scan the site, for example, through the service Trustwave at least once in 3-4 months. Also, it's worth to have local backups of the site, so as not to lose just one moment;
  • web server tools, for example, .htaccess and .ftpaccess. They will help limit access to the site by IP.

If you want to protect your site from hacking, you can use our tips. Secure yourself and your site is not difficult. Good luck in all your endeavors!
