Anonymous FTP is disabled by default for the security of your account.
- We do not recommend using anonymous FTP because it allows anyone to access FTP without identifying themselves, it is a security risk.
To disable anonymous FTP:
2. In the Files section, click on the Anonymous FTP icon.
3. Under Anonymous FTP Controls, uncheck both checkboxes for:
- Allow anonymous access ...
- Allow anonymous uploads ...
4. Click on Save.
5. You have successfully disabled anonymous FTP.
After completing these steps, you will still see [email protected] and [email protected] in the list of your cPanel FTP accounts, but they are not enabled.
Also, if you are connecting to FTP and you see a publishing folder, this does not mean that anonymous FTP is enabled. That folder is not in your account; it is on the server.
