5 Security Tips for Making your Drupal Website
Hack-Proof
Companies which provide certified Drupal 8
development services are today the most sought after
by enterprises for building business websites which can
deliver engaging digital experience to their stakeholders.
However, despite Drupal being a highly secure CMS
platform, achieving watertight security of your invaluable
business data on a Drupal built website requires a more
proactive approach.
Security Tip #1: Always Keep Drupal Updated
to the Latest Version
Drupal comes out with two major upgrades every year
besides providing minor updates every now and then.
Each upgrade includes bug fixes and security patches
which help safeguard your site against cyber-attacks. It
is advisable not to delay this process as an outdated
script can give hackers easy access to your online web
portal.
Security Tip #2: Plug the Gaping Holes in
Administrative Control of your Website
Drupal allows you to set different security privileges for
anonymous as well as authenticated users, so be sure
to make use of this feature. It’s always wise to give
limited access to anonymous or suspicious users. Also,
FTP should be preferred for logging in securely.
Security Tip #3: Avoid Using Unnecessary Add-
Ons
Often during Drupal module development developers
throw caution to the wind and get lured into using
plugins, modules and customizable themes for adding
to the aesthetic appeal of the website. However, these
add-ons at times come laden with malware which could
grant unauthorized access of your site to hackers.
Security Tip #4: Deploy Additional Security
Modules
When the goal is of securing your website against
hackers no amount of measures can be considered
enough. It’s always better to keep yourself well-
equipped by using additional security modules like
Captcha, Paranoia, and Security Kit.
Security Tip #5: Follow a Strong Password
Policy
Strong passwords are like an unconstrained insurance
policy for your website, period. What increases the
significance of having strong passwords even more is
that passwords are used both at the admin as well as
user level.
Conclusion
There are lessons to be learned from every successful
cyber-attack as it exposes another loophole. The bottom
line is that while the hacking techniques will continue to
evolve and the hackers continue reinventing themselves,
so will the modern security systems. However, one
should never underestimate the determination of a hacker
who is time-rich and cash-poor and is already busy
planning his next hack which could well be on your
website. The onus lies on you to prepare yourself to
thwart his attempt.
