lonestar Posted November 6, 2011 Share Posted November 6, 2011 Hi! Just created a fresh site & loaded with fresh OSCommerce, 2 days ago. Now What? It appears all permissions are set at 755. What basic initial & further steps for security do I take? With this version (2.3.1)does "Site Lock" monitor have any real added value? I want to keep the hackers out before they get in....Thanks!

Guest Posted November 6, 2011 Share Posted November 6, 2011 Ken, A properly configured installation of osCommerce v2.3.1 does not require site lock or any other paid security service. In my opinion, those services are nothing but a waste of money. Read the security thread about additional security for v2.3.1 Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ctec2001 Posted November 6, 2011 Share Posted November 6, 2011 I would highly recommend osc_sec by Taipo. Very straight forward contribution. Of course there are few others as well. Do or Do Not, there is no try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
