Q: What security options do you offer to ensure that no one can abuse my forum?


We have several proactive security measures to stop forum abuse:
  • Community Moderation: Allows community members to flag posts to trigger automatic hiding of message and banning of abusive posters.
  • Post Data Validation: Prevent malicious data to enter the database.
  • Captcha Image: Prevent software bots from abusing the software by requiring human input on certain forms.
  • Restricted Username: Prevent people from using a username that might sound offensive to your forum community.
  • Bad word filter: Filter out obscene words of your choice to prevent intrusive message to appear on your board.
  • Post screening (moderation): Enable post screening by Admins and Moderators for each forum before the post is viewable to the public.
  • Username banning: Ban any users you hate (become guest).
  • IP banning: Ban users by IP address. Very strong and supports also wild card IP addresses (192.168.*; 10.*).
  • Flood control: Prevent a user to flood your forum by specifying the minimum interval between each of his post.
  • Javascript attack prevention: Disable all Javascript in posts. There is no way to post Javascript in your forum.
  • Permission based checking: Setting 5 permissions + special task permissions (more on this later) to prevent users from abusing the forum.
  • Strong protection against XSS (CSSI)
  • Report Abuse System: Allows users to report malicious posts to admins and moderators
  • Session tracking: Tracks each session with IIS' s in-process session mechanism.
