I Believe XOOPS is that safe that don't need any security modules... I used to have installed Anti-Dos but just for a while.

Due to my "day job" (network admin), I tend to be a bit on the paranoid side, so I disagree with DjManolo's statement. The XOOPS core is quite secure, but nothing is 100% secure. Also, you have to take modules into consideration. Some module developers are just getting started in php and may not know the best security practices.

My recommendation, Protector. Also, spend some time in the FAQ section on this site and read through the information available at XOOPS Tips.

Hope this helps.

JMorris I Agree too that nothing is NOT 100% secure, but XOOPS is one of the most secure cms. That's what i meant...

The protector module is the best all round protection, although there are other methods available for images leeching/copying etc.

The one sure thing you should do is always update to the latest stable version, as improved security is always being assessed and updated in most new releases ATM.
