Hi!

I just finished a website that has a control panel called admin/index.php. I would like to know how secure is to use http Authentication on a that file instead of a protected directory (admin in this case).

Thank you,

Manzano 🙂

Better to secure the whole directory. For example, if your index.php includes some other PHP files, then some hacker might be able to access those PHP files without authentication. But if you secure the whole directory, all the files will be secure.
