Extra protection of the administrator panel

To make your administrator panel more protected:

1. Rename the admin.php file to something more complex:
   1. Rename the admin.php file located in the root directory of your CS-Cart installation.
   2. Edit the config.php file (it is located in the same directory) by replacing the following line of the code:
      

      $admin_index = 'admin.php';

      
      with this one:
      

      $admin_index = 'admin8765.php';

      
      where admin8765.php is the new name given to the admin.php file.
   3. Save the file.
2. Enable the Enable secure connection in administrator area setting on the Settings page in the panel of your CS-Cart.

   NOTE: Make sure your web server supports a secure connection before that.
   

3. Restrict an access to your panel using the Access restrictions addon.
