HOSTGATOR HOSTING PLANS

Using HostGator Web Hosting is key to Website Security

Using Hostgator Web Hosting is key to Website Security as security is first and foremost in the minds of all highly trained webmasters. Whether you are protecting a database of articles, banking and credit card information for your customers, or a trade secret - it is crucial to apply all the tactics of securing your website to avoid a website hack and theft.
Using a highly trained team of website technicians is also key to securing a website and that is why using Hostgator Web Hosting is key - they have a trained team of specialists to thwart attacks and keep the servers running.
Building a Secure Site
The first and foremost method is by building a stable and secure platform for your website. Limiting root access via a FTP protocol only to Super Administrators. Changing the read/write access to key folders and files will limit a hackers ability to key sections of a site. A simple age old hack is to overload a websites bandwidth and or disk space by uploading large files or constant submissions. This can be easily limited by capping the files size and running a virus program on all files before an upload. Adding a turing program to any of your hosted forms will limit robots from submitting a million forms and overloading your bandwidth allotment. These are just some of the things Hostgator Web Hosting keeps an eye on.
Passwords
Often, hackers will try to determine your password by reviewing your social networks and personal information. Therefore, it is crucial to use something not related to you for a password and then to ensure that it is long enough and cryptic enough that it would take months for a computer program to determine the password.
There are 3 cardinal rules to creating an uncrackable password - at least 1 Capital Letter, at least 1 Number, and a 12 digit minimum for the total length of the password. Lastly, change the password on a weekly or monthly basis to thwart a long term hacking attempt by a computer program.
Back Up Your Data
Backing up your data daily, weekly, or monthly depending on how frequently data changes and the importance of the that information. There are several key areas of a website to back up and maintain in a secure environment; website content (images and code), financial and customer data, and lastly your website traffic analytics and trade secrets. If you are unsure on how to do this, contact Hostgator customer service and they will gladly run you through the few simple steps. Hostgator Web Hosting works hard to make sure your website is as secure and tight and reliable and makes it an absolute priority.
In the end, after building a secure website, using the right passwords and protocols will protect you from the majority of attacks and attempts. Then using the right web hosting provider such as Hostgator will ensure that your data is properly backed up and secure. That is why it is so important to choose Hostgator as your premiere web hosting provider. They will ensure that the data is backed up on a redundant server in case of a technical failure or attack and puts website security first priority.
