Website Security

In the Yandex help for webmasters, they posted an excellent structured article on protecting sites from various types of attacks and vulnerabilities. There you will also be protected from sql injections, and good php code, server settings, cookies, authorization, and many other interesting things. For the guru of course zilch, but who of the gurus was not once a beginner? Yes, and refresh your brain - it never hurts =)

Good afternoon!

To help webmasters to ensure the security of their websites, we offer a translation of an article from Sophos: help.yandex.ru/webmaster/?id=1071330 The

article was written at the end of 2007, but all the methods described in it are still actively used. The article discusses methods of compromising web servers and methods to counter them. By following these recommendations, you can significantly reduce the risk of a successful attack on a web server. This will allow you to avoid infecting visitors to your site, falling traffic from search engines and possible problems with indexing (for example, in cases where hackers place hidden text with many links on the site’s pages).

Of course, within the framework of one article it is impossible to cover all the hacking methods and ways to counter them, but we hope that this will allow webmasters to take a fresh look at the problem and prevent the appearance of malicious code on the site.

Sincerely, the service team Yandex.Webmaster .
