Security Configurations
Heads up - Depending on your webserver’s configuration for active modules, the following
could break some functionality. It is strongly advised to try out any configuration in a
testing/staging environment before changing any configuration on production servers.
Keep an eye on the logs
Drupal has an in-built log viewer (Manage > Reports> Recent log messages) which you should
certainly take advantage of. Logging plays a crucial role in understanding when an attack is
underway and what has happened after an attack occurred.
By keeping an eye on logs, you can mitigate the the effects of a security breach by paying
attention to early warning signs such as failed login attempts.
