Webhost Hacking

Recently one of my collegues website was hacked and there were some arabic content with English talking ill about the world. Finally we found that the site's hosting account was hacked and have complained it to the webhost provider.

What makes hacking easier for hackers?

Hacking is caused by weak user account login and password. It always recommended to use some strong passwords. Avoid using passwords like your name, date of birth, your computer name, pet name etc. The other reason for a webhosting account to be hacked is caused by the party website script that is vulnerable and having a security hole. For example, if you download a free website template from a insecure website and upload it to your webserver without knowing that hacker has placed some spyware in it. A hacker can exploit your textbox or web-form by injecting SQL into your database, or even by injecting HTML code into your web files. Another entrance for hackers is through FTP login, once the hacker gains access, they will be able to change your web files in any means.

So it is very very important to secure your own hosting account as well your ftp login. Make sure your password is 8 Character long and having combination of alphanumeric, Numbers, and symbol. safeguard your own login information. Finally, make sure your website script is updated with the latest version of script released. These are the best way to protect your website from being attacked again.

There are so many securities stuff availble by the webhosting provider, you can purchase them and form a additional layer of security to your web hosting account.

Make sure you buy a website and WebHosting Account from a genuine provider, who can always be by your side to support at the earliest.
