Plesk Panel "Web Statistics" Permission Issue

According to a study conducted across Europe in 2014, it was clearly revealed how easy the passwords used in personal or social accounts worldwide and in Europe are. The most commonly used and easily compromised passwords worldwide include: 12345, 12345678, qwerty, 1234567890, and 1234.
Today, almost every individual has a membership on a site or system on the internet. Considering that social media is present in every moment of our lives, it is very important for our account security that passwords be strong and secure.
No matter how long a password is, if it is not complex and consists only of letters or numbers, it will still be an insecure password. Creating a password using all numbers or a simple name means inviting the compromise of your account. To create a strong password, you need to use a mix of letters, numbers, and special characters (“‘”, “*”, “?”, “!” etc.). However, it is certainly not easy to remember complex and long passwords. For this reason, it would be useful to use a program where you can safely store your passwords and create complex and difficult passwords whenever you want. KeePass is a very successful program in this regard and we recommend using it.
In December 2014, hackers gained access to the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) network system and sent emails that appeared to come from ICANN to users. This email contained a fake link asking users to enter their username and password. ICANN noticed this problem very quickly and immediately took the necessary measures to prevent it from becoming a major global problem.
According to Google’s research, hackers in China, Malaysia, Nigeria, and South Africa have much higher success rates than expected in hacking attempts. The rate of obtaining personal information through fake websites is 45%. Between 2011 and 2014, Google analyzed its own data and found that 14% of people alarmingly enter their personal information into sites with fake content without hesitation.
The internet is now part of our lives. Even world-class companies apply strict procedures and policies to store their users’ data and prevent it from falling into the hands of third parties. So what kind of policy do we apply for our individual internet security? The internet being secure is possible thanks to users — conscious users who know what they are doing.
