( The Hosting News ) CirtexHosting, a provider of Linux web hosting, today announced that it has added PostgreSQL Hosting, enabling its customers to create and manage PostgreSQL databases through the cPanel control panel.

The company explains that the vast majority of shared web hosts currently do not support PostgreSQL, instead supporting only the MySQL database platform. Although both platforms are loaded with an impressive array of features and boast strong performance records, it has added support for PostgreSQL to allow its customers to utilize the database the best meets their needs.

It states that customers can utilize either MySQL or PostgreSQL at no additional charge. In fact, customers are able to manage both MySQL and PostgreSQL databases when creating databases in their allotment. The company claims that this flexibility enables customers to build a web site that relies on a diverse set of applications that are powered by both platforms.

“In recent months, there has been a consistent increase in demand from our customers for more database options. Although supporting two databases increases the complexity of our hosting environment and adds marginally to our customer support load, we believe it is essential to do everything we can do help our customers succeed, especially when they ask for improvement in a specific area,” said CirtexHosting President John Xie.

The most popular and widely used software tools are usually celebrated for good reason, mainly because they are able to address the needs of professionals and end-users over a broad range of segments.  When you find a certain tool that the user community is buzzing about, it typically means that the software is at least worth a closer look.  When it comes to the reseller market, WHM is one software tool you will hear a lot of people talking about.  This article will fill you in on why this program has been able to generate and maintain such a positive buzz.

WHM Overview

Web Host Manager or simply, WHM offers the reseller an easier way to manage several hosting accounts and run their business through various automated processes.  Often bundled with the popular cPanel control panel package, WHM has become one of the most preferred management tools for not only resellers, but web hosting providers all around the world.  If you were a webmaster before diving into the reseller market, you have probably at least head of cPanel, a powerful control panel that deserves all the praise it receives.  cPanel is easy to use with a ton of great features that appeal to the novice as well as the experienced webmaster or administrator.  The widespread use and notoriety of this dynamic automation software tool makes WHM just as popular by association.

Extensive Automation with WHM AutoPilot

A distinct advantage WHM has over other reseller management tools is its ability to integrate with WHM AutoPilot, another product created by the makers of cPanel.  WHM AutoPilot is a complete, out of the box web hosting management system that provides resellers with the ability to automate virtually every administrative task associated with their business.  Its most prolific features include a built-in billing management facility, profile system and convenient access to support.  WHM AutoPilot is one of the first in the business to enable resellers to create a remote order system in which a single installation can effectively manage multiple domains, allowing each to have its own branding and identity.  The aspect of centralized control is one of the biggest perks of using WHM as your reseller hosting software.

You Can’t Go Wrong with WHM

WHM is a tool that is only available to the reseller and server administrator.  And just as other control panels have separate versions of their reseller management software, this one is unique to the cPanel program.  Choosing a hosting account equipped with this software is a surefire way to make your job as a reseller much easier.  It also gives you the means to really market your business on “an easy to use platform” since your customers will be provided with the user-friendly end-user version of cPanel.  The management software is one of the most important factors that must be considered when choosing a reseller hosting account.  With WHM in your arsenal, you are well on your way to succeeding with your new online business.

These days, it is more important than ever to keep your website current with the latest security measures.  Why so much emphasis on security?  Because hackers are always looking for ways to penetrate servers and websites to thieve sensitive information.  There are is a lot you can do to ensure better website security and the tips in this article should taken very seriously.

1.) Update Your Applications and Scripts

Running outdated web applications and code on your site is liking giving hackers an open invite.  So if you have older versions of WordPress or Joomla installed, it is advisable that you immediately check for and perform the necessary updates.  This goes for any application or programming languages used for your site.  For a knowledgeable hacker, compromising Joomla 1.0 is as easy as uploading a shell script to an insecure form.  If successful, they could end up with complete control of your account.

2.) Create Strong Passwords

A password can be a simple but effective security mechanism.  However, this is only the case when following a strict set of rules.  When securing login sessions and other areas of your site, never apply a password that can be easily guessed by others or is used for other accounts.  If someone knows just one of your passwords, they can keep trying it for each of your accounts until they are successful.  This could not only lead them to the control panel login of your hosting account, but also the financial institution you do your online banking with.

3.) Mask Your Folders

It is always wise to cloak your website files and folders that are stored on the server.  Many security experts suggest keeping a blank index.html file in each of the folders stored in your public directory.  Doing this will ensure that the contents cannot easily be viewed by internet users.  This process is made simple with the cPanel control panel and its Index Manager function.  You can take this one step further by password protecting the administrator folder that contains the scripts you are running.  This is highly recommended as it provides an added layer of security that will make an intruder have to work that much harder.

What If I Still Get Hacked?

As we eluded to earlier, there is a possibility that even after adhering to all of these tips and more, your website can still be compromised by a hacker.  Should your site be successfully exploited, there are a couple of things you should do right away to minimize the damage.  The first step that needs to be taken involves changing all of the passwords associated with your website.  This goes from your control panel and administrative areas to everything else in between.  Next, go through your hosting account to find and update all old applications and plugins as they could easily be the culprits that led to exposure.  Any website can be compromised and if it happens to you, your sensitive information can be used for criminal gain in one way or another.  Prevention is the key so employ all the measures you can to ensure you are protected against the existing and emerging threats.
