Security

Unfortunately, many of the systems and protocols in use today are not secure and can potentially allow hackers to gain access to your systems.

We suggest all customers run a firewall to protect their systems.

We suggest only allowing traffic to these ports:

We strongly encourage our customers to use secure methods and procedures while using on the Internet. Here are some general guidelines:

• Use SFTP instead of FTP.
• Use SSH instead of telnet.
• Avoid using insecure protocols when doing anything over the Internet.
• Do not share passwords. If someone needs access to your system, set up an account for them with appropriate access restrictions.
• Use a different password for each system to limit exposure if a password is compromised.
• If you write your passwords down, make sure they are kept in a secure place.
• Do not send passwords or other sensitive information (e.g. credit card numbers) through email or messenger services.
• Change passwords immediately if you suspect a breach.
• Change passwords regularly even if you do not suspect a breach.
