Hide globeadmin password in the nuconfig.php

Unread post by yvesf »

Hello,


Is it possible to hide the password of globeadmin in the nuconfig.php ? If I don't own the server, this password is accessible by anyone.
It would be usefull to be able to hide that if possible.
Many thanks for your reply.

While it might seem strange to see the password without encryption in nuconfig.php, if someone unauthorized has access to your config file and other core files, then you have far bigger problems than your passpord being leaked. This person can do basically anything with your installation anyway.
So, when you choose your hosting company, you are putting your trust in that organization not to invade your privacy.

Not being a security expert, you may find best practice guidlines online.
