Hotlink Protection

<p>Hotlink protection prevents other websites from directly linking to files on your website. Other sites will still be able to link to any file type that you don't specify (i.e., HTML files). An example of hotlinking would be using an <img> tag to display an image from your site somewhere else on the Web. The end result is that the other site is stealing your bandwidth.</p> <div id="codeSnippetWrapper" class="csharpcode-wrapper"> <div id="codeSnippet" class="csharpcode"><pre class="alt"><span id="lnum1" class="lnum"></span></pre></div><br><div id="codeSnippet" class="csharpcode"><pre style="overflow: auto; border-top: #cecece 1px solid; border-right: #cecece 1px solid; border-bottom: #cecece 1px solid; padding-bottom: 5px; padding-top: 5px; padding-left: 5px; min-height: 40px; border-left: #cecece 1px solid; padding-right: 5px; width: 650px; background-color: #fbfbfb"><pre style="font-size: 12px; font-family: consolas,'Courier New',courier,monospace; margin: 0em; width: 100%; background-color: #d6d6d6"> 1: RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^$<br></pre><pre style="font-size: 12px; font-family: consolas,'Courier New',courier,monospace; margin: 0em; width: 100%; background-color: #ffffff"> 2: RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http:<span style="color: #008000">//yoursite.com/.*$ [NC]</span><br></pre><pre style="font-size: 12px; font-family: consolas,'Courier New',courier,monospace; margin: 0em; width: 100%; background-color: #d6d6d6"> 3: RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http:<span style="color: #008000">//yoursite.com$ [NC]</span><br></pre><pre style="font-size: 12px; font-family: consolas,'Courier New',courier,monospace; margin: 0em; width: 100%; background-color: #ffffff"> 4: RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http:<span style="color: #008000">//www.yoursite.com/.*$ [NC]</span><br></pre><pre style="font-size: 12px; font-family: consolas,'Courier New',courier,monospace; margin: 0em; width: 100%; background-color: #d6d6d6"> 5: RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http:<span style="color: #008000">//www.yoursite.com$ [NC]</span><br></pre><pre style="font-size: 12px; font-family: consolas,'Courier New',courier,monospace; margin: 0em; width: 100%; background-color: #ffffff"> 6: RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^https:<span style="color: #008000">//yoursite.com/.*$ [NC]</span><br></pre><pre style="font-size: 12px; font-family: consolas,'Courier New',courier,monospace; margin: 0em; width: 100%; background-color: #d6d6d6"> 7: RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^https:<span style="color: #008000">//yoursite.com$ [NC]</span><br></pre><pre style="font-size: 12px; font-family: consolas,'Courier New',courier,monospace; margin: 0em; width: 100%; background-color: #ffffff"> 8: RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^https:<span style="color: #008000">//www.yoursite.com/.*$ [NC]</span><br></pre><pre style="font-size: 12px; font-family: consolas,'Courier New',courier,monospace; margin: 0em; width: 100%; background-color: #d6d6d6"> 9: RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^https:<span style="color: #008000">//www.yoursite.com$ [NC]</span><br></pre><pre style="font-size: 12px; font-family: consolas,'Courier New',courier,monospace; margin: 0em; width: 100%; background-color: #ffffff"> 10: RewriteRule .*\.(jpg|jpeg|gif|png|ico|bmp|swf|wav|mp3|pdf|xls|xlsx|xps|psd|dxf|eps|ps|ai|tiff|svg|ttf|doc|docx|css|js|jsp|cfm|htm|shtml|shtm|xhtml|xhtm|jsp|phtml|phtm|php3|php4|php5|pl|pm|plx|xsml|log|json|otf|woff)$ http:<span style="color: #008000">//www.yoursite.com/ [R,NC]</span></pre></pre></div></div><br><div> </div><br>

Increase cache timeout

In computer science, a cache is a component that transparently stores data so that future requests for that data can be served faster. The data that is stored within a cache might be values that have been computed earlier or duplicates of original values that are stored elsewhere. If requested data is contained in the cache (cache hit), this request can be served by simply reading the cache, which is comparatively faster. Otherwise (cache miss), the data has to be recomputed or fetched from its original storage location, which is comparatively slower. Hence, the greater the number of requests that can be served from the cache, the faster the overall system performance becomes. <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cache_%28computing%29" target="_blank">Read full article about cache on wikipedia.</a><br> <br> This is a simple code on htaccess file to increase cache timeout.<br> <br>

XSS Protection

What is XSS protection ?<br> XSS mean <span class="st">Cross-site scripting is a type of computer security vulnerability typically found in Web applications. Due to breaches of browser security, XSS enables attackers to inject client-side script into Web pages viewed by other users. A cross-site scripting vulnerability may be used by attackers to bypass access controls such as the same origin policy. Cross-site scripting carried out on websites accounted for roughly 84% of all security vulnerabilities documented by Symantec as of 2007. Their effect may range from a petty nuisance to a significant security risk, depending on the sensitivity of the data handled by the vulnerable site and the nature of any security mitigation implemented by the site's owner. More information about XSS <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-site_scripting" target="_blank">you can read here</a>.</span><br>
