In order to prevent any malicious attacks to the server, we have added an Outgoing Connections Manager to the Web Hosting Control Panel. In a typical attempt to attack the server, a hacker would plant a script which would attempt to connect back to his own website or server in order to steal information from your account. Thanks to the Outgoing Connections Manager this will be no longer possible. The interface is easy to use. It allows you to specify a certain IP address to which you want to connect from your web hosting account. The tool follows a pre-defined pattern where it automatically adds the first 10 outgoing connections from the specified IP address to the "allowed" list and blocks all further outgoing connections, unless they have been previously included in the list.
