cPanel automatic backups
Did you know that one website was hacked every 5 seconds? You should always protect your investment with a backup but nobody wants to have to manually login, click backup, and let it run every day. With cPanel automatic backups this task is accomplished for you, and securely through a cron job. Also, I have included steps on how to password protect your cron just for the extra protection if you cant keep it in a secure directory such as your home folder.
