moldboy 0 Report post Posted October 4, 2005 I was wondering how I go about getting my cpanel username out of my form profile, I don't recall telling it to be there, and yet it is, and I can't figure out how to make it go away. It seems like a security flaw, afterall having a username is the first place to start hacking. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BuffaloHelp 24 Report post Posted October 4, 2005 OpaQue has assured me that although cPanel username is visible to others, the cPanel itself cannot easily hacked by others outside. OpaQue installed a very secure script that will alert when cPanel is being hacked into. Additional way you can prevent hacking is to have a really good password. For example of creating a solid password please check this thread http://forums.xisto.com/topic/26064-what-do-i-do-if-i-am-hacked/ However, OpaQue has been notified with your question and he will be answering it shortly.Thanks.

truefusion 3 Report post Posted October 4, 2005 There are more ways than one to gain the cpanel username than just viewing the profile. But, like mentioned, it is very hard for someone to be able to actually hack into your account. I'm sure your password has been encrypted to the point that would cause the hacker to pull his hair out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
