Website security is a matter that cannot be ignored by enterprises. A security incident can lead to data leakage, reputational damage, and business interruption. Here is a 20-point checklist for enterprise website security.

Basic Security (1-5)

  1. HTTPS enabled:Ensure the entire site uses HTTPS encryption, do not mix HTTP and HTTPS content
  2. SSL certificate valid:Check if the certificate has expired, it is recommended to use Let's Encrypt for automatic renewal
  3. Security response headers:Set X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options, Content-Security-Policy
  4. Hide version information:Remove the version numbers of the server and CMS to prevent attackers from exploiting known vulnerabilities
  5. Updated regularly:Keep CMS, plugins, and dependency libraries up to date

Authentication and permissions (6-10)

  1. Strong Password Policy:Require administrators to use strong passwords, including uppercase and lowercase letters, numbers, and special characters
  2. Two-Factor Authentication:Enable 2FA for administrator accounts
  3. The principle of least privilege:Each administrator is granted only the necessary permissions
  4. Regular audit:Regularly check administrator accounts and remove accounts that are no longer needed
  5. Login restrictions:Limit the number of login attempts to prevent brute force attacks

Data Security (11-15)

  1. Regular backup:Daily automatic backup, retain at least 30 days
  2. Remote backup:Backup files stored on remote servers or cloud storage
  3. Database encryption:Sensitive data encrypted and stored in the database
  4. Upload limit:Limit the type and size of uploaded files to prevent malicious uploads
  5. Log recording:Record all administrative operations for auditing and traceability

Network protection (16-20)

  1. Firewall configuration:Only open necessary ports
  2. DDoS protection:Use CDN or cloud service provider's DDoS protection
  3. Regular scanning:Use security scanning tools to detect vulnerabilities
  4. WAF Deployment:Deploy a Web Application Firewall to intercept common attacks
  5. Emergency Plan:Establish an emergency response process for security incidents
