5 Security Tips for Making your Drupal Website Hack-Proof

Companies which provide certified Drupal 8 development services are today the most sought after by enterprises for building business websites which can deliver engaging digital experience to their stakeholders.

However, despite Drupal being a highly secure CMS platform, achieving watertight security of your invaluable business data on a Drupal built website requires a more proactive approach.

Security Tip #1: Always Keep Drupal Updated to the Latest Version

Drupal comes out with two major upgrades every year besides providing minor updates every now and then.

Each upgrade includes bug fixes and security patches which help safeguard your site against cyber-attacks. It is advisable not to delay this process as an outdated script can give hackers easy access to your online web portal.

Security Tip #2: Plug the Gaping Holes in Administrative Control of your Website

Drupal allows you to set different security privileges for anonymous as well as authenticated users, so be sure to make use of this feature. It’s always wise to give limited access to anonymous or suspicious users. Also, FTP should be preferred for logging in securely.

Security Tip #3: Avoid Using Unnecessary AddOns Often during Drupal module development developers throw caution to the wind and get lured into using plugins, modules and customizable themes for adding to the aesthetic appeal of the website. However, these add-ons at times come laden with malware which could grant unauthorized access of your site to hackers.

Security Tip #4: Deploy Additional Security Modules

When the goal is of securing your website against hackers no amount of measures can be considered enough. It’s always better to keep yourself wellequipped by using additional security modules like Captcha, Paranoia, and Security Kit.

Security Tip #5: Follow a Strong Password Policy

Strong passwords are like an unconstrained insurance policy for your website, period. What increases the significance of having strong passwords even more is that passwords are used both at the admin as well as user level.

Conclusion There are lessons to be learned from every successful cyber-attack as it exposes another loophole. The bottom line is that while the hacking techniques will continue to evolve and the hackers continue reinventing themselves, so will the modern security systems. However, one should never underestimate the determination of a hacker who is time-rich and cash-poor and is already busy planning his next hack which could well be on your website. The onus lies on you to prepare yourself to thwart his attempt.
