Mod_security is an apache module that helps to protect your website from various attacks. It is used to block commonly known exploits by use of regular expressions and rule sets and is enabled on all InMotion servers by default. Mod_Security can potentially block common code injection attacks which strengthens the security of the server. If you need to disable the mod_security rules we can show you how, and help you do so.
When coding a dynamic website, sometimes users forget to write code to help prevent hacks by doing things such as validating input. Mod_security can help in some cases those users that run sites that don't have security checks in their code.
