Is there a security risk not to use the .htaccess file?

Question

I have a Joomla website www.siteA.com and another Joomla website www.siteA.com/siteB.

I have a .htaccess file on site A, but not on the site.

Is there a security risk of not having .htaccess -file on site B?

Answer 1

.htaccess files are configuration files used to override settings at the level of each directory. The same parameters (and more) can be set from the main apache configuration (often in / usr / local / etc / apache *). If you own your server and configure Apache correctly, it may actually be an enhancement to disable .htaccess for performance reasons.

Improper permission settings are usually a security risk. How you configure them is up to you. Some people prefer to have .htaccess so that they can support general application settings.
