Use the Apache mod_userdir Tweak interface to configure Apache’s mod_userdir module. This module enables access to a website through a URL that uses the http:// hostname/~username format.
Compiler Access
Use the Compiler Access interface to enable or disable compiler access for unprivileged users. Many common attacks require a functional C or C++ compiler on the server.
Configure Security Policies
Use the Configure Security Policies interface to configure security measures for your server and your WHM account.
cPHulk Brute Force Protection
Use the cPHulk Brute Force Protection interface to configure cPHulk. cPHulk helps to defend your server against brute force attacks. Brute force attack methods involve the use of an automated system to guess your web server’s or services’ password.

Shell Fork Bomb Protection
Use the Shell Fork Bomb Protection interface to ensure that users with terminal access (SSH or Telnet) cannot deplete server resources. This depletion of resources can crash your server in a fork bomb (a malicious attack). Fork bombs start a cascade of small processes that duplicate themselves until they deplete the server’s resources.
SMTP Restrictions
Use the SMTP Restrictions interface to configure your server so that the mail transport agent (MTA), Mailman mailing list software, and root user are the only accounts that can connect to remote SMTP servers. You may want to deny users the ability to bypass your mail server to send mail. This is a common practice for spammers.
SSH Password Authorization Tweak
Use the SSH Password Authorization Tweak interface to enable or disable passwords for SSH authentication. Important: If you disable passwords, users must use keys when they access your server via SSH.

Backup
Warnings:
- Always create backup files of all of the information on the server. You cannot recover deleted files.

Use the Remote Access Key interface to generate an access key. You can use this access key for automatic account creation scripts, external billing software, and to set up DNS and configuration clusters.
System Reboot
Important:
- We recommend that you upgrade your operating system to use KernelCare, a live kernel patching service that ensures your system runs the most up-to-date kernel. This service includes security patches and symlink protection. If your system supports KernelCare, you may receive an upgrade notification in this interface. For more information, read KernelCare’s documentation.
- We recommend that you only reboot your server to troubleshoot an issue that occurs when you start your server or when you disable SELinux.
- We strongly recommend that you use the Graceful Reboot method rather than the Forceful Reboot method, because a Forceful Reboot can cause data loss.
Forceful Server Reboot
Use the Forceful Server Reboot interface to shut down your server regardless of any errors that the server encounters.
To begin this process, navigate to the Forceful Server Reboot interface and click Proceed.
Important: We recommend that you reboot your system with this method instead of with the physical reset switch (a hard reset). Use this method only if the Graceful Reboot function does not work.
Graceful Server Reboot
Use the Graceful Server Reboot interface to close any user-level processes and then store their data before the reboot.
To begin this process, navigate to the Graceful Server Reboot interface and click Proceed. Important: This method does not result in data loss. We strongly recommend that you use this method whenever possible.
