cPanel 11 offers greatly enhanced security through a combination of strengthened backend code, and many new utilities which allow you to provide fine grained security policies for your server. These numerous enhancements make it extremely easy to keep your servers locked down tight.

Public Key Authentication

Public Key Authentication allows your users to use a public and private key pair to access your server for SSH connections and Account Transfers. The use of public key authentication allows you to disable password authentication. This means that only those users that have access to a private key will be able to connect to your server, thereby enhancing your authentication security greatly.

cPHulk Brute Force Protection

cPanel 11 marks the debut for the much anticipated cPHulk Protection system. cPHulk protects your vital services by disabling authentication to those services after a brute force attack is detected. It protects: cPanel, WHM, SSH, FTP, IMAP, and POP3 from brute force authentication attacks. cPHulk will remain transparent to the attacker whose authentication attempts will feel normal, even while authentication is disabled. Thus, you can get substantial information about the attack. You can even customize authentication thresholds and lock out times!

Host Access Control

The best security policy is to not offer a connection to a service. However, that is not always realistic. Understanding that same principle, you can use the new Host Access Control feature to only provide access to a specific set of IP addresses to the services on your server, or to block access from specific IP addresses. With a simple to use interface, it's easy to prevent unwanted access to the services on your server.

Enhanced XSS Protection

Substantial backend changes have been made to further protect cPanel and WHM users from cross-site scripting. Many behind the scenes functions have been added to render such nuisances harmless.

Enhanced Notifications and Error Messages

It's important to keep on top of what's going on with your hosting account. To ease this process, a new notices area provides information about access, email account disk usage issues, and more. Along with these notices, the Stats area has been enhanced to provide easily identifiable visual clues to the status of an account. With a quick glance, it's easy to make sure everything is under control.

Enhanced Information Display

It's important to be able to access specific accounts and settings quickly. With this in mind, the display of large quantities of information has been reworked for cPanel 11. Tables are sortable by many different aspects, visual feature queues have been added throughout the interface, and zooming has been added to keep your information within a reasonable screen size. With these new information display enhancements, your clients can quickly locate and access accounts and features, while keeping a close eye on their account.

Web Disk Access

New Web Disk Access allows your clients to put a shortcut on their desktop to their hosting account. They can then drag and drop files to their account just like it is part of their local filesystem. This feature allows for easy publishing and eliminates the need for for FTP or publishing software.

Update Integration

While not new to cPanel 11, update integration allows for easy custom changes for systems that require modifications to core services or functionality. /scripts/postupcp can be created to be executed after a cPanel software update is run. Like wise /scripts/post:service:up can be used for services like exim, ftp, etc.

Module Installer

Developers need quick access to modules that can ehance their software, and web site owners need modules to use with existing software. cPanel 11 provides the ability to install Perl Modules, PHP PEARs and RubyGems directly through the interface. Not only will it install the modules, it handles dependancies for you. To make things even easier, code is provided to allow developers to use local includes for the modules without having to modify their path.

PHP Config

For those who develop in PHP or have specific PHP requirements, PHP configuration and PHP information sections have been added to WHM and cPanel respectively. Within in the new PHP Configuration Editor, server owners can simply modify a few select PHP options, or use advanced mode to customize PHP to a higher level. These modifications, or the default PHP configuration can be provided for users within cPanel so they can ensure their PHP software will work.
