Hi there,

I purchased RS Firewall yesterday due to my site being hacked at the weekend. When I run a systems check I have a Website Grade of "49", this figure does not mean a whole lot to me and i cant find any kind of table to indicate this is good - fair or poor. Its says this indicates the security of your site and if additional security measures are required. If "49" is not a good number any ideas on what else I can do to make site more secure, last thing I want is another situation like the weekend.

Thank you

Hello,

As a general side note a grade above 70 is considered good. To increase this grade you should apply the suggestions mentioned in the system check. To get more details on the suggestions you could refer to the RSfirewall! step by step guide:

i was able to get all my sites to 91 rating, but then again i have a friendly host allowing me to apply custom php.ini

I managed to get mine to 91 within about half an hour of purchasing the package and now all the boxes are ticked. I think 91 is the maximum possible rating...

I just installed newest version on a 1.7 site. Made all adjustment and ran test. it is telling me my grade is 145. How can that be? I thought it went to 100?
