<p>We recommend you don't take security issues too lightly. Chamilo is security-audited at least once a year, but you're never too sure. This list is a work in progress. Feel free to recommend additional measures by sending us an e-mail at info@chamilo.org.</p>

<p>
It is considered a safer behaviour not to disclose server information from your Chamilo page. In order to avoid both web server and PHP information disclosure, you might want to take the following actions:
<ul>
<li>Locate the <i>ServerTokens</i> setting inside your Apache configuration and set it to "Prod"</li>
<li>Locate the <i>ServerSignature</i> setting inside your Apache configuration and set it to "Off"</li>
<li>Locate the <i>expose_php</i> setting inside your PHP configuration and set it to "Off"</li>
<li>Reload Apache</li>
</ul>
