We need to secure our sites and make sure our permissions on in tact. Webligo's installation instructions need to be amended as basically they say give maximum permissions on most of the folders but they don't say that this need to be locked down after installation.
Most newbies therefore leave their sites wide open. I'm copuying some advice i was given:
"We also request you to use strong passwords for your control panel and FTP account logins. Also please ensure to logout properly after each time you complete work after logging in. This will make your account free from security risks. For maximum security please ensure your account password is secure (at least 6 mixed numbers and letters) and that it is changed regularly. Ensure that permissions for your Folders are set to 755 and for files it is set as 644. Also check that no folders have insecure permissions such as 777 (unlimited access).
