Protect FTP
January 25th, 2020
I’m trying to learn things about the security of my FTP server.
Now,
I’ve some hosting allong with FTP accounts I can manage myself.
Now is the question, how can u protect your online data the best way?
For Example when I type my URL:
http://www.mysite.com//
I need to give in my username + password, is this safe enough to be able to access the files? And is it hard to bypass such things?
Also, Is SSL connection necessairy when u upload encrypted files?
Thanks in Advance,
It should be safe, You might want to change the settings to lockout an IP if it gets an user & pass wrong ten times or something, That will stop bruteforcers attacking your server.
