Hello NLUG,
I found on the cPanel that standard email security features involving spf
and DKIM were disabled, so I enabled them; that helped matters somewhat.
I've gotten a few notifications that 'someone' is logging into our cpanel.
One of those cPanel logins at 3am July 30th was supposedly the IP
Also, regarding security, this is for the non-profit ministry,
www.GraceAndTruth.Net ; just want to keep the site functioning and email
from being hacked every day and blacklisted. It's all information that he
wants the whole world to know. A functioning level of security is
acceptable.
Thank you
What are you using for mail service for that domain, right now? Are you
running your own mail server?
Google offers free email hosting for non-profits. I have a few clients
that I've moved to free Google Apps. MUCH better to let Google be your
mail server (if you're small and don't have dedicat
Email (hacked on the server) is what got them blacklisted. Free sounds
pretty good for non-profits.

I have to again ask: is there *anything* besides these services running on
that server?
1. Email
2. Webserver
Let's start there.

Google has a bit of a procedure that you have to go through, to prove your
a non-profit and everything, but once you've done that, you can get a free
Google Apps account and Google has some pretty sharp email

Webserver and Email is all I know of; I know there is a litlle mySQL db of
about 13MB. I can look in the cPanel if I know what to look for.

I again strongly suggest:
1. Move email *immediately* to gmail or another like service.
2. Identify issues with the web site that allow attackers in.
3. Move web hosting elsewhere if possible.
It's a Joomla site, so I assume the database is simply the Joomla stuff.
If that's the case, your best b
Does Google Apps also have free and/or inexpensive mail services for
private domains, such as jfeldredge.com, that aren't nonprofit
organizations, but aren't commercial enterprises either? I found recently
that my hosting service's SMTP server, which is shared among multiple
hosted domains, is
It's $5/month/email address. I was grandfathered in when it was free, and
you can bet I'm never giving that up :)

I'm thankful for all the input,
I 'believe' webserver and email is all that's there, so it crossed my mind
going back to just a "cheap" shared hosting arrangement for $5-$30 / month.
BUT, two reasons I don't know for sure that will be adequate are:
1. I'm (obviously) not a web admin / IT pro,
And the email switchover is in progress

If the big content is on aws s3 then it doesn't matter where the front end
lives.

Those services you mentioned in the initial post are as useful for
preventing break-ins as fire insurance is for preventing fires. Sitelock at
least provides vulnerability scans, but if it turns something up (like a
recently-published vulnerability in cPanel), to extend the above metaphor
further,
