Safety and security while setting up a Wiki

While creating a Wiki page there are various methods of maximizing how safe and secure it can be which people overlook or are too impatient to follow out, personally i find this to be a shame. I mean you cannot really complain after not taking the necessary precautions into securing your page.

It is often the case when business corporations create blogs or wiki pages that they are attacked for the negative side of their work with no regards to the positive side of things.

For example there is many a case where animal rights activists have sabotaged corporations by messing up what is on wiki pages, blogs and the like as most of the time they are unlocked and can be edited by others.

To maximize security and safety of the employees it is a great idea to firstly make sure that the wiki page has an active administrator to filter out the hateful comments or the stupid edits people may make while they're being stupid. Frankly they are taking it out on the people who can, the little people of the organizations who have no real power over what is happening at their company.

Secondly it is sometimes possible for blogs and wiki pages to have Username and Password authentication, i suggest this if at all possible as it will help improve sustainability over your pages.

Sometimes this is not the case though, in certain cases there has been an error with transferring data and then everything is lost. Therefore i highly recommend that you have a copy of the text and information you would like to convey to the readers of your pages on a separate storing device encase of emergency.

Below is a picture in which the creator has access to password authentication on one of his pages.

Applying these great variables is a sure fire way to help secure your wiki and blog pages.
