Thread: Internet Security For Website

Hi everybody,

My name is Abu Bakar Ahmad and my my wesite is
"bumiweb.com".

I will soon be ready to launch my website into the world wide web but before I do will you all advise me on the steps I should take to protect my website from spam, hackers, phishing, spyware and vandalism. How much protection does Voda Host provide? What should I do on my part?

All feedback shall be highly appreciated,

Thank you.

Hi Abu,

Spam = do not publish your email address on your website....use a contact page which sends you the email via a PHP Script.

Hackers = Vodahost has excelent protection, but nothing is safe from a determined hacker.

Phishing = always type in a url, do not just click on links received by email...be watchful.

Spyware usually effects your computer, so get yourself a good firewall and anti-spyware program..............

You will never be completly free from spammers, but you can at least keep it manageable.

Good luck with your site.

Thank you David, your feedback is appreciated.

Abu

Your welcome..............
