Security

This section covers account access controls, network restrictions, and platform safeguards designed to protect your site. Use it to minimize unauthorized access and secure data movement during initial setup, hardening, or incident response.

Start With Site-Wide Security Settings

Use Security Settings for global controls: protocol enablement, session policy, and brute force protections.

Authentication And Password Policy

Use Passwords and User Password Policies to define credential requirements. Add a second factor with Two-Factor Authentication (2FA). For centralized identity, see SSO (Single Sign-On).

Network Access Restrictions

Restrict where users connect from with IP Whitelisting and Access Control by Country. These controls affect every protocol and client.

Transport And Web Security

Encryption details live under Encryption. Use TLS/SSL Security and HTTP Security Headers when you harden browser-based access.

Hardening And Threat Scenarios

Use Configuring Files.com For Maximum Security as the default hardening checklist. Use Ransomware for recovery planning and operational controls.
