A password-protected directory is a folder that can't be accessed unless the right login credentials are offered. This can be a whole website or only a single page which is situated in a subfolder. If you attempt to open this kind of a directory, you will see a browser pop-up where you must type a username as well as a password. In case you type the right ones, you can continue surfing around the content without having to do anything additional. When the login details are not right, however, you shall see a message that you are not permitted to view the content. If this feature is activated, you won't be able to open a file even though you may have a direct link. The function is very handy if you want to restrict the access to some content or if you are creating an Internet site and you do not want visitors to be able to access it before it's ready.

Password Protected Directories in Cloud Web Hosting

When you use any of our cloud web hosting solutions, you can make password-protected areas without difficulty even if you don't have any experience with this kind of matters. We have included a very easy-to-use point-and-click tool into the Hepsia CP, supplied with all accounts, so you shall be able to protect any folder within just seconds. You will have to pick a domain or a subdomain and the specific folder which has to be protected (the primary one or a subfolder), and then to input the preferred username and password that'll be used to access the folder in question later on. Any secured folder shall have padlock icon inside the File Manager section, so you'll be able to see easily what content is secured and what's not. When necessary, you can create a number of different sets of login details for the exact same folder.
