Webmin uses a secure communications method called Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) to
encrypt traffic with its clients. Webmin guarantees that communications with the
client is kept private. But Webmin will provide access to any client that provides the
correct password, rendering it vulnerable to brute force attacks. The best way of
addressing this problem is to restrict access to specific IP addresses or subnets.
By default, IP access control allows all IP addresses to access Webmin.
