Suggestion: Put a link to Register globals Docs page admin/environment/custom check/php check register globals
Request: Replace the link to the spanish translation for this page to the proper page es:Recomendaciones de Seguridad

Use https to secure all pages
Request: add new security recommendations at https://docs.moodle.org/29/en/Security_recommendations below "Update Moodle regularly on each release":
- use https to secure all pages (not just the login page) Protect all traffic from your Moodle instance and your users by making all pages accessible via https only. This not only protects passwords on login but also ensures the privacy of your users so that all user data cannot be intercepted or manipulated ("ad injections") from third parties like WLAN providers for example. Free https certificates are available from https://letsencrypt.org/ In addition, please also set httpslogin=yes in your moodle config to add an extra layer of protection for submitting login credentials.
- Thanks Robert, 'use https to secure all pages' has been added as suggested. --Helen Foster (talk) 22:05, 7 November 2016 (AWST)
