If you spill tea on your white carpet, is it the landlord's fault...you know,coz he rented you the house? I guess not! If some websites are running securely on Safaricom hosting, doesn't that mean some people have not secured theirs hence the hacking? Whatever happenned to being a man(or woman) and owning up to one's mistakes!

Actually, the host is to blame more than the client. The host should have tools to monitor all kinds of activities, scripts, e.t.c on their servers and take proactive measures. Hacking will still be there, but the prevalence can drop upto 90%.


International hosting companies do this, why should we be measured by a lower metric?

Wait a moment! Is it Safaricom's duty to ensure that the configuration of all websites (httpd.conf/nginx.conf/my.cnf/etc) hosted by them is secure?
So some folks at Safaricom have to sit down with the hosted entities and run an audit of the websites, or Safaricom have a software frontend that ensure all this happens automagically??


Someone please tell me who needs to take the blame? Is it Safaricom or the techie cobbling up together the website?

Are these hosted by safcom? If yes, why do people still host there. Its like being sold for water instead of petrol and still going to the petrol station
