Whitelist admin section of Kentico

Question

I don't like the world seeing the admin interface of my Kentico site. Kentico allows you to create a new folder for admin pages but the existing folder is still there and its pages still accessible. I want to whitelist the admin folder by IP.

Answer 1

Add the following section to your web.config. This enables an IP whitelist for the admin folder. More details here.

  <location path="Admin">
    <system.webServer>
      <security>        
        <ipSecurity allowUnlisted="false" denyAction="NotFound">
          <clear />
          <add allowed="true" subnetMask="255.255.255.255" ipAddress="987.654.321.012" /> <!-- add your IP here -->
        </ipSecurity>
      </security>
    </system.webServer>
  </location>
