Protected Directories

This feature is active if virtual hosting (physical hosting account) has been configured for your domain. It creates secure directories in your virtual domain, in which to place documents. Secure directories are recommended to ensure security of confidential and private information. It is possible to create directories under either the standard virtual host accessible via http protocol, or if applicable for the given domain, under the SSL virtual host accessible via https protocol. Icons are used next to each directory name in the directory list to define which virtual host  type (SSL or non-SSL) the directory resides within. An open lock depicts non-SSL; a closed lock depicts SSL.
