Protect Website with a Password

The Internet has spawned a new generation of successful businesses - ecommerce websites. These small online companies find themselves expanding rapidly which is a wonderful thing to be sure but this also throws up some unique hurdles that need to be overcome. One of them is the need for protecting restricted areas of the website by a password. This feature is often needed by the websites with pay-per-view content and those that, for example, set up a club for the visitors.

If some areas of your website need password protection, using ISAPI protection filter for IIS from Metamatica Software should be fine. Named IISKeeper, the filter enables you to protect files and folders on the website by a password. The best thing is that there’s no need to create user accounts and set up access rights for users. The content can be protected by time of access and by traffic. IISKeeper will automatically count the server traffic for the protected area of the website and block access to the user who has exceeded the traffic limit or when the time of access has expired.
