Is there such a thing these days? With the word that amiga.org was hacked, maybe we should be securing our web sites? Well, theres always one thing that comes first.
And that is Backups. It also pays to not keep back ups on the same server.
The administrooskis should pay more attention to security, and also the security of the backups.
An example. Don't named backups yoursite2, yoursite3 etc.., if you're going to leave them on the server. I truely hope Amiga.Org didn't name their backups ao2, ao3 etc. That would be truely silly.
Anyway, best of luck in getting the site up and running, you'll need it with these types pf people around,. Hmm. Maybe you should offer them a job securing the site?

Secure Websites : Comment 6 of 6 | ANN.lu |
Posted by alan on 24-Oct-2001 21:18 GMT | of course there such a thing as a secure site. its one where you
dont run any services......not exciting really.
as soon as you add ANY server-side scripts you run into issues...
its not only your OS and server you have to worry about
(and believe me, if you're running Solaris you've got lots
of patches to worry about....Apache aint too bad as a server..
we ALL know how bad IIS is! ;-) )
I was wondering why amiga.org havent moved to usingthe Slashdot
software package for their site? its VERY powerful and VERY cool
with features |
