Site security for Kirby CMS

702 Views Asked by At

I am creating a site where clients will need to securely upload documents and enter secure information. I was hoping to add additional security to the site and wanted to know if there were any plugins or kirby additions I could add to my site. Thanks!

Update 2021: Thanks @Daniel Groner for the comment about the security plugins for Kirby at https://getkirby.com/plugins?category=security. There are also user permissions you can adjust.

Original Answer: I haven't seen any plugins specifically for security on the Kirby plugins site (http://getkirby-plugins.com/). However, if you haven't seen it, a new security page was added to the Kirby CMS docs in August 2015 (http://getkirby.com/docs/security) https://getkirby.com/docs/guide/security (2021). Here they list the main ways to make your site more secure. A few things stood out to me:

  • Keeping Kirby updated is important like any CMS "in order to fix possible issues and vulnerabilities."
  • Getting an SSL certificate for user login so you can use HTTPS.
  • Check out the many other important steps for securing a site in the security doc (see link above).
