Making a dynamic site secure

The config folder that GoLive places in a site with dynamic content contains files or folders that include information about your server. For example:

• config/datasources/ includes a database file itself or database connection files that can contain a database ID and password.
• config/info/troubleshooting.asp/.jsp/.php provides sensitive server information, including database structure and HTTP passwords.

GoLive offers several ways to make sure your config files do not compromise site security.
