[HELP] Other DB

[RetroMakerD]

Hello :)

So my database gets hacked everyday. Is it possible to use a DB from any webhosting service and connect it to my hotel?

P.s I use a VPS

Yes, that is possible.
Just change all the database information like localhost to sqlhost.webserver.fr w/e you'r web-hosting database host is. And of course the root information.
Also, this might now fix anything. You might have some exploits in your CMS or Emulator. Look for exploits before changing. If you can't find any exploits, try to change the MySQL password.

Thanks,
Mr. Doodle

You will just get hacked again.... and again..... and again.... and... guess what? again. Splitting your server into two and hosting your database from another server will not stop the problem. If your database is getting hacked you clearly have vulnerability within your CMS. Re-look over code that you've written (if you've written any) or if you've used any add-ons, pages from any other edits.

If you can explain what's happening every time they hack your database we'll be able to help you further. Are they managing to rank themselves? Dropping tables?

The cms is not the problem. The db was the problem.

Most likely the CMS has some sort of exploits. The DB itself isn't the problem, as for now, you should try to go over the whole CMS to check for injections. It won't help much with just change the mysql host.

How do i do that?

How do i do that?

Firstly, you should learn what SQL injections are. Google for it. After that (I assume your CMS is written in PHP), you should get into PDO.

Splitting your server into two and hosting your database from another server will not stop the problem.

Instead it will increase the risk of getting hacked when not being in the same local network.
