I got the Cloudflare captcha page this morning while posting, so I think HUBGFE is doing what they can to protect us.

No matter how secure, there's always someone who will be able to find a back door (not greek but maybe the hacker is greek). If someone wrote the encryption, it's not really fool proof, is it?

I would say on average; most escort advertising websites perform very poorly in cyber security validation tests. I've always opted to use secure email services like gmx to exchange personal information with an escorts.
The most immediate issues most escort websites have is the age of the applications they're using. A lot of review boards and advertising websites are using forum apps, CMS apps from 6-10 years ago. Many of those web applications are no longer recieving security updates.

Can you expand on that?.

Look at the recent hacks of CAF Reviews, BCCAF and ****. Both sites were easily attacked because of old software and lack of maintenance work done by both admins operating each website.
Both attacks were perfectly avoidable. The hackers exploited flaws in the 8 year old versions of WordPress and VBulletin. None of web applications being used were being supported by the vendors of with new security updates. ****/PERB/MERB did step-up afterwards and has made huge improvements in their overall website security since they were attacked.
You can't run the risk of running your website on out of date software anymore. Hackers are looking for poorly maintained websites they can hit.
That's not exclusive to escort websites. Whether you're selling sex, rubber bands, duct tapes or cupcakes, hackers love to hit poorly maintained websites. A lot of hackers know a lot of people either don't understand or take cyber security for granted.

I remember how much hard work you did (and how much money you spent) keeping RL safe when it was online. :good:
Fiddy built an escort review board called RedLight a few years ago, and I was one of his mods. The reason I joined HUBGFE was because it reminded me a lot of RL.

I wouldn't use RedLight as my primary qualification. I'm a web designer with 17-years of experience working on large corporate websites. Most of my knowledge comes from working with some brilliant people on different project teams over the years along with non-stop training, workshops and certifications required to be allowed anywhere near a mega corporation's website.
The number one recommendation I can make to webmasters running escort advertising is annual security audits that include website penetration testing. Webmaster should hire an outside expert in Europe to perform an annual security audit.
Security Audits include a checklist the admin can use to change, update, and fix potential vulnerabilities on their sites.
Always back-up the whole website everyday. Make 5 copies of the back-up. It would really suck to loose an entire website because of a failed harddrive or USB stick. Having 5 copies of a back-up in five locations guarantees you'll always have a pristine copy of your website.

Interesting. So what is Fiddy doing now?.

I'm working with developers around the world to create the future of escort advertising. The goal is to create a SMART technology based escort advertising platform that will make finding escorts 1000x easier and faster than it is today.
Pietro, I'm working on the future. The way we are doing things today won't be the way we're doing things five years from now.
There's been some requests to rebuild and relaunch RedLight. I'm very hesitant to do that at this point.
