Paysite security scripts?
 

What are all ye paysite owners using for password/bandwidth/etc security these days, if anything?

Currently I'm using Strongbox. But have run into a couple issues with them, and their support plan is kind of a racket IMO. Might be doing a switch soon if there are other good options...

Sliiing has a built-in function taking care of that.

Thanks, but I'm not interested in Sliiing at the moment - just want a security script/service.

I recommend Proxy Pass. Great support too! http://www.proxigence.com/

Thanks Danny, will have a look. Anyone else?

Anyone use these guys? looks interesting. Sorry to hijack.

Another vote for Proxy Pass here!

Used them for years on my sites and save me tons of $$$

Take a look at Phantom Frog

stay awaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyyy from strongbox. Their throttlebox is not working and there is no support.

Your comment about the support plan is interesting. All of the others charge around $65 per MONTH ($780 / year).
We charge $99 per YEAR. I'm curious why you'd call charging 90% less a racket.

GoldBars - Throttlebox counts files in the members' directory only by default.
I'll set it to count your public files as well, if you'd like, or you can put your content inside of members/.
That's the actual content, the videos, that count. A page in members/ that links to public videos doesn't protect the videos it links to.

I second that.

Go with Password Sentry. Reliable with very good support.

Plesse use my username: paul123 as referal please.....

blah blah blah. I have been sending you at least 30 emails for the past 6 months. You never respond although you know what the problem is. Your rules do not work and you know it. Everything is in the member area. I am also planning for a different solution.

have used strongbox for 6yrs+ and nothing else out there compares...period!!! :thumbsup

We are using password sentry from 2001with their basic version and now the work very hard un last few year and i am sure its better than strongbox

stay away from bettercgi

I use Password Sentry, one time fee for it and it works - had a problem with an upgrade issue not long ago and Dan from PS gave excellent support.

useful info in the thread, thanks.

We used to use proxypass; but now we block at the load balancer level.
But proxypass worked great for us in the past.

Yup, Bill's da man!

We gave up & wrote one ourselves. Best move ever

You might want to check out SiteDefensor :-) SiteDefensor offers a password sharing protection (based on analysis of user’s IP addresses and a geolocation service), anti-leech protection (you can set daily/monthly/total download limit and maximum download speed) and a secure captcha solution that really stops brute-force attacks. Last but not least it supports CDN and cluster setups (apache+nginx).

strongbox is the biggest pain for hackers imho, at least if they get kicked from the site, they know it was strongbox who did that ... and thats making them mad ... but last threads about support doesnt feels good, but we see that raymor is still around, so i would say go with strongbox :winkwink: never heard or read about other protection scripts on any hackers forum i know ... :2 cents:

Nice. I'd love to have Strongbox, but besides they charged my card w/o showing a 'total' and some confirmation, etc I haven't got any real response from them.

Got real response. It seems they are all ok but understaffed.

Used Password Sentry, service is awesome! Very happy!

Password Sentry combined with PHP Auth Plugin. These have been developed longer than any others as far as I know and always have been a less expensive option.

Fuck recurring fees. That is kind of an oxymoron now isn't it? :1orglaugh

I second password sentry...been using it since 2001

i like poo...
