Cpanel/WHM gives an advantage to rule over even if the attacker have your root password. Their security Questions feature adds a protecting layer between your cpanel login and GUI enterface of your server, if there is cpanel access from unauthorised ip. Whenever an ip which is not whitelisted access cpanel/WHM account then there is a popup of 4 security Questions and upon successfull answer only user will be able to enter Administrator panel or will be directly thrown out of web server. Isnt that great?
Cpanel have more stunning security features which makes it first choice of Web Administrator’s. I will be exploring more features in next post. For more information related to Security Questions see the link below:
