It was also tricky to update - granted there was only one key file and edits to the preexisting '.htaccess' file but they had to be done manually. Hacker Beware was an external stand-alone script which required the webmaster to upload the script and manually make edits to the '.htaccess' file in order to improve security.īecause Hacker Beware was an external script (out-side of Joomla) - all edits had to be completed via FTP or a File Manager application. With Hacker Beware installed those hack attempts would be recorded and the IP would be banned so they couldn't access your website which also meant that they couldn't keep attempting to hack your website. Joomla had standard 'blocking' where if a hacker tried to hack your website, the request was forbidden but didn't block the hacker so they could keep trying. Hacker Beware was developed to enhance security within Joomla 1.0. DMC Firewall expands on our very successful 'Hacker Beware' script which was developed by Dean Marshall himself. DMC Firewall is a Joomla Security extension which aids in the protection of your Joomla powered website.
