Anti bot function by Nginx

Hi, Today, focus on the anti-bot function that exists in your cpanel by the Nginx plugin. This function is underutilized and can render a good service in many cases. Reference : https://support.yoorshop.hosting/knowledgebase/3077/You-are-under-ddos-attack.html See : 1. Bots do not accept cookies in general, this filter will not let through if the cookie is not accepted.All popular bots like google and other are excluded from the cookie testHere is the option in Nginx for temporary or permanent solution :see 'Application settings', see line : 'cookie_test', click on 'Enabled', and at bottom : 'Submit' Check if there are no side effects, in which case you can easily disable it from your cPanel. It is totally normal to see added in URL : test_bot=1 (NB: If a legitimate robot is blocked due to its role in your activity, we can authorize it on request, we need its name 'user agent' or IP if static) Have a good bot hunt !

Sending unauthenticated email by phpmail is no longer tolerated

Hello, For more than 2 years, we remind the need to use the smtp with authentication to avoid hacking emails sent by websites, and as a consequence a degradation of IP reputation causing mail delivery issues for legitime emails for all users of the concerned server. This is no longer tolerated, it will soon be the norm for all web hosts and has long been in the obligations of our Terms. It's up to you to correctly configure your website via its CMS or smtp php code. (Contact your webmaster if needed) Reference: https://support.yoorshop.hosting/knowledgebase/1119/Send-emails-via-smtp-from-your-site-and-avoid-phpmail.html
