Using cPanel, one of the leading control panels in the web hosting industry, one can install and manage SSL certificates in just a few simple steps.

A control panel offers web developers and webmasters an easy way to manage important aspects required for their website(s). Using cPanel, one of the leading control panels in the web hosting industry, one can install and manage SSL certificates in just a few simple steps.

Steps to Install SSL Certificate on a Domain on cPanel

Follow the next steps in this article once you have an active SSL Certificate. You may order a cheap SSL certificate or simply proceed with a free Let’s Encrypt.

Step 1: Login to your cPanel Account (e.g. http://your-domain.com/cpanel or http://your-webhosting-IP-address/cpanel)

Step 2: Search for the Security section and click SSL/TLS as shown in the screenshot below.

Step 3: Click on Manage SSL Sites from the right side menu, as shown below.

Step 4: Copy the certificate code (usually found in the .CRT file sent to you from the Certificate Authority). Make sure you copy the entire set of strings, starting from “—–BEGIN CERTIFICATE—–” ending with “—–END CERTIFICATE—–“).

Step 5: Click the Autofill by Certificate button so that cPanel can automatically fill in the domain name as well as the private key.

In case the Certificate Authority Bundle (CABUNDLE) is not filled automatically, you can include it your self. CABUNDLE is included in the zip file sent to you by the Certificate Authority, upon SSL’s activation.

Step 6: Click Install Certificate and you are good to go!

You can now verify if your website is protected with SSL by clearing your browser’s cache and reloading your domain name. The https:// should appear if all went well with the SSL installation.

In this article we explain the steps you need to do on your CentOS 8 server to resolve the error Failed to download metadata for repo

The CentOS 8 distribution has been on End of Life (EOL) status since December 31st, 2021. This means that servers using CentOS 8 Operating system are no longer receiving development resources from the official CentOS project.

A common error that system admins encounter when trying to install a new package or update CentOS 8 is the following:

Error: Failed to download metadata for repo 'AppStream': Cannot prepare internal mirrorlist: No URLs in mirrorlist

To resolve this error you need to change the mirrors to vault.centos.org. Follow the next steps for the list of commands you need to execute on your CentOS 8 server to fix this.

Step 1 – Go to the /etc/yum.repos.d/ directory

[root@centos8-server ~]# cd /etc/yum.repos.d/

Step 2 – Execute the ‘sed’ command. Sed is a popular linux command for finding & replacing strings in a file

[root@centos8-server ~]# sed -i 's/mirrorlist/#mirrorlist/g' /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-*

and then this command:

[root@centos8-server ~]# sed -i 's|#baseurl=http://mirror.centos.org|baseurl=http://vault.centos.org|g' /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-*

Step 3 – You are all set, now try updating your system with the following command:

[root@centos8-server ~]# yum update -y

If all went well, the last command should have not returned any errors.

In this article, we will take a look at how DDoS attacks are affecting the Forex industry and the most suitable solutions to protect Brokers from these threats.

DDoS attacks have dramatically increased in recent years, and according to reports they show no sign of slowing down anytime soon. Not only have DDoS attacks become more widespread, they have also become more sophisticated and complex in nature. With that being said, organizations have no choice but to deploy the appropriate resources to detect, protect and combat these attacks.

In this article, we will take a look at how DDoS attacks are affecting the Forex industry and the most suitable solutions to protect Brokers from these threats.

What is a DDos Attack

A distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attack is a type of cyber-attack that renders an online service unavailable by overwhelming its server or network with fraudulent traffic. By making resources unavailable to legitimate users, DDoS attacks can cause huge losses in revenue and productivity, significant brand damage, as well as creating more vulnerabilities for hackers to take advantage of. Whilst anyone can be the victim of a DDoS attack, statistics show that they are much more rife within the iGaming and Financial industries.

The Forex market in particular is a main target for hackers carrying out DDoS attacks. Last year alone we saw some of the biggest DDoS attacks carried out on well-renowned industry players. In April 2022, the crypto exchange platform Currency.com confirmed that they were the target of an attempted attack “ten times” bigger than anything they had ever seen before. Later on in the year, the online trading firm Swissquote experienced a large-scale DDoS attack that made their platform inaccessible and caused delays in services that lasted up to 24 hours.

The Best DDoS Protection for Forex Brokers

With over 15 years’ industry experience, NetShop ISP offers a range of solutions that are suitable to protect Forex Brokers against DDoS Attacks.

Web Application Firewall (WAF)

Web application vulnerabilities can become the main target for attackers and serve as a convenient entry point for further attacks. For instance, a misconfigured firewall configuration on the OS level, or an application running on a server which has not been tested for zero-day threats are two ways an attacker can find their way into the server and network.

In order to safeguard against attacks on web application vulnerabilities and prevent their exploitation, it is recommended to use a Web Application Firewall (WAF), which in essence is an assembly of monitors and filters that are designed to thoroughly detect and block vulnerabilities. A WAF provides the maximum level of application protection as well as the fastest possible resolution of security incidents. Overall it is the most efficient protection solution for web-resources since it doesn’t require any special infrastructure, the purchase of any expensive equipment or additional employee training.

NetShop ISP offers a comprehensive service that includes day-to-day administration, 24×7 proactive monitoring and alerting, as well as manual mitigation in the event of a large attack happening.

Premium DNS

A premium DNS is a service that helps a website or server overcome an ongoing DDoS attack. It uses various DDoS protection elements like active monitoring and traffic filtering that keeps a website safe from unsolicited traffic. By utilizing our 30ms global TTL propagation, NetShop ISP can set up automatic failover and load balancing rules which will help make sure that your server is always available in case the primary is under attack. In order for the load balancing and failover to work properly, at least two servers on different networks are required.

DDoS Attack Automatic Mitigation

DDoS Auto-Mitigation detects DDoS attacks and prevents malicious traffic from reaching the intended target by redirecting it. NetShop ISP’s DDoS Attack Automatic Mitigation offers security protection at all layers, including Application Layer (L7). The protection runs 24/7, with the software working on its own and without the need for a human being to monitor traffic or divert bad traffic in the event of an attack.

We use BGP-Anycast architecture which guarantees a reliable, geographically distributed and fault-tolerant network. This means that traffic will pass through multiple filtering nodes which work in load balancing mode, so failure of any of the nodes will not have an impact on the client’s server or application performance.

NetShop ISP’s DDoS Attacks Mitigation and Security Solutions

Ensure a safer network and continuous DDoS mitigation that’s essential for running your trading environment without interruption. For more information on our cyber security services, get in touch.

As the internet has evolved, cloud computing has also transformed significantly, having become an essential service for most organizations and individuals. In this article we’ll take a look at the five most impactful cloud computing trends to expect in 2023.

Cloud computing is a term that refers to the delivery of computing services on-demand, via the internet. These resources include servers, data storage and databases. As the internet has evolved, cloud computing has also transformed significantly, having become an essential service for most organizations and individuals. In this article we’ll take a look at the five most impactful cloud computing trends to expect in 2023.

Multi-cloud

Many organizations have come to realize the benefits of diversifying their services across multiple cloud providers and we can expect more businesses to follow suit in 2023. By matching specific capabilities to various providers, a multi-cloud environment offers more flexibility for workload optimization, ultimately improving efficiency and productivity. A multi-cloud strategy also provides heightened security and reliability by ensuring resources are always available, as well as better failover and redundancy options that reduces the chance of downtime and system errors.

In addition to heightened performance and resilience, many businesses prefer not to rely solely on one vendor as to not hinder innovation and growth. Overall, we can expect to see many more businesses adopting a multi-cloud approach in 2023.

Blockchain

Blockchain technology has been revolutionary over the last decade, although interest in it began to skyrocket in 2020. Put simply, Blockchain is an open ledger that several parties can access at once, but cannot be edited by any third-party. Transaction records are always correct as it is a decentralized system, with no intermediary.

In 2023, we expect blockchain to be utilized in order to improve existing cloud solutions. For instance, due to the large amount of data that is dealt with in cloud computing, data insecurity is always a concern. The centralized architecture of cloud computing means the central server could be targeted by hackers, so there is potential in using blockchain’s decentralized system to mitigate this risk and improve overall security.

Kubernetes

Kubernetes (K8s), is an open-source container orchestration system that automates operational tasks like deployment, scaling, and management. Kubernetes has been widely adopted due its flexibility, ability to improve productivity and multi-cloud capabilities, amongst other benefits. As one of the most successful and fastest-growing open-source projects, we expect Kubernetes to be a huge trend this year.

Cloud Gaming

Cloud gaming, or game streaming, allows users to stream video games from remote servers directly to their devices. Cloud gaming has essentially removed the need for expensive consoles, and provides players access to the latest games via a subscription service. The emergence of cloud gaming isn’t recent, but with huge technology advancements and faster speeds, we expect it to rapidly increase in popularity this year.

Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence

Developing artificial intelligence (AI) or machine learning (ML) infrastructure requires a wealth of resources, so businesses tend to utilize those provided as cloud services. An increasing number of cloud service providers are also using AI internally for a variety of tasks. We expect to see huge innovation when it comes to AI and ML this year, as investors continue to devote more resources to ongoing research and continued development.

Whilst changing the IP address on a linux server is straight forward, when it comes to a Zimbra server there are a few more steps to be done. In this article we will show the steps and commands you need to perform on your server so that Zimbra can continue working with the new IP address.

There are a few reasons why someone would need to change the IP address of server. It might be that your server is under attack, you are migrating from your existing provider or the current IP address got blacklisted, you will need to follow certain steps to change the IP on your server.

Whilst changing the IP address on a linux server is straight forward, when it comes to a Zimbra server there are a few more steps to be done. In this article we will show the steps and commands you need to perform on your server so that Zimbra can continue working with the new IP address.

Pre-requisities

1. Root access or sudo-privileges access on server
2. Ability to switch as the ‘zimbra’ user

Steps to Change IP address on Zimbra Server

Assuming you have already changed the IP address on your server via NetworkManager or the configuration file directly, let’s take a look at the next steps to change your Zimbra server’s IP address.

1. Change the Hosts File

Using your favorite editor, edit the file /etc/hosts and replace your old IP with the new one as follows:

root@mail:~# vi /etc/hosts

Sample output of /etc/hosts files:

127.0.0.1 localhost
45.142.201.1 mail.example.com mail 

2. Modify Zimbra MTA Mynetworks

First check your current IP addresses included in the MyNetworks MTA using the following commands:

Switch to zimbra user:

root@mail:~$ su zimbra

Then run the following command:

zimbra@mail:~$ postconf mynetworks

Sample Output:

mynetworks = 127.0.0.0/8 [::1]/128 45.142.201.251/32

You can see the current/old IP address which is “45.142.201.251”. Change it to the newly assigned IP address of your server (e.g. 45.142.201.1) using the following command:

zimbra@mail:~$ zmprov ms mail.example.com zimbraMtaMyNetworks '127.0.0.0/8 [::1]/128 45.142.201.1/32'

Then reload postfix for the new configuration to be applied.

zimbra@mail:~$ postfix reload

You are all set! The last step remaining is to restart Zimbra services using the following command:

zimbra@mail:~$ zmcontrol restart

Sample Output:

Host mail.example.com

Choosing the right web hosting company to serve your adult content is a decision that requires research and consideration. In this article we will break down the six most important things you need to consider.

Adult websites are those which provide goods or services that are only available to ages 18 or 21 and above, depending on the location of the user. The phrase ‘adult website’ is most commonly presumed to be pornographic sites, but gambling, tobacco and alcohol are also considered as mature content.

With that being said, the number of internet users that search for pornographic content is steadily rising, with approximately 2.5 million people visiting the world’s most popular porn sites every minute. iGaming websites have also seen a surge in users since the start of the pandemic, with 1.6 billion people worldwide gambling on a somewhat regular basis.

Choosing the right web hosting company to serve your adult content is a decision that requires research and consideration. In this article we will break down the six most important things you need to consider when hosting an adult website in 2023.

Six Things to Consider when Choosing an Adult Web Hosting Company

Terms of Service & DMCA Policy

Before purchasing your plan with any hosting company, it’s important to read the terms of service (ToS) thoroughly. Not all hosting companies will allow you to host adult content, so if you’re unsure from the terms of service, make sure you double check with a member of staff before spending any money.

In addition to the ToS, you should also make sure to check out their Digital Millennium Copyright Act Policy (DMCA). The best hosting providers for adult content are those which are DMCA Ignored, meaning they will not remove your content from their servers, even if they were to receive a DMCA takedown notice.

Domain Privacy WHOIS

Opting for an adult web hosting company that offers a domain privacy service is definitely worth it. The service usually comes at a small fee, and means that once you register your domain, your private details like your name and address, won’t be accessible via the WHOIS database.

Customer Support

No matter what content you intend on hosting, around-the-clock customer support is absolutely essential. Before choosing your web hosting company make sure that they provide 24/7 support and fast response times through various means of communication. Live chat in particular is an extremely convenient method of communication, so it’s wise to check whether this is something that they support.

Performance  

A well-performing website is the key to success. In order to build a solid user-base, rank high on search engines and create a strong brand, your website needs to be fast and always accessible. When deciding on your adult web hosting company, be sure that they can guarantee you an up time of 99.9% and loading times of between 0-4 seconds.

Flexibility

When starting with your adult website it may be hard to predict how it will grow. Make sure you opt for an easily scalable hosting solution to ensure that you have enough storage and bandwidth to accommodate spikes in traffic and an increase in demand, without interruption.

Location

There are certain countries where hosting adult content is highly scrutinized or simply just not tolerated. Hosting adult content in these locations will put you at a much higher risk of breaching laws and your content being taken down. On the other hand, countries like the Netherlands are favored due to their lenient regulations on adult content with many business owners opting for data centers in Amsterdam.

Adult Web Hosting with NetShop ISP

NetShop ISP offers secure and reliable hosting services for those seeking to host adult-oriented content. With data centers located in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, we provide the ideal solution to hosting content intended for a mature audience. For more information, get in touch!
