HTTPS

Use HTTPS for the JKPanel Server management interface and production websites. Confirm DNS resolution before certificate issuance and renew certificates before expiry.

Administrative security

• Use strong unique administrator credentials.
• Limit privileged access to trusted administrators.
• Keep JKPanel Server and the operating system updated.
• Review failed-login and security events.
• Maintain tested backups independent of the live server.

Service exposure

Only expose network services that are required for the hosting environment. Database and cache services should normally remain restricted rather than publicly reachable.
