protecting my Admin CP

[fgenetics]

Ok guys, I want to install an SSL certificate on my server and basically put my admin cp behind this. How do I go about doing this. My board contains some sensitive data and I am looking at some serious security here.

Please guide me with this.

Is there a way I could make my entire forum SSL secure? Has anyone had any experience with security in this Vb install. Its a 3.6.4 board.

Thanks in advance and much respect to the posters on this board!

Who is your hosting through?

All you really need is to put a Secure Directory Login on your admincp directory (maybe modcp too). This can be done from cPanel.

or just a .htaccess login... for the directory.
