Enhancing WHMCS with Custom Modules for Improved Data Protection

Data Protection Requirements

Identify the types of sensitive data (e.g., personal information, payment details) that WHMCS processes and stores.

Review WHMCS Security Settings

– Ensure that WHMCS is configured with strong security settings, including HTTPS encryption, secure passwords, and regular software updates.

Develop Custom Modules

– Identify areas within WHMCS where additional data protection measures are needed, such as customer registration, payment processing, or data storage.

Implement Access Controls

– Define and enforce access controls within WHMCS to ensure that only authorized personnel have access to sensitive data.

Regular Security Audits

– Implement intrusion detection/prevention systems (IDS/IPS) to detect and respond to security threats in real-time.

User Education and Training

– Provide training to your staff on data protection best practices, including password hygiene, phishing awareness, and secure data handling.
