Module configuration

  1.  Make sure that your encryption key file is stored securely on your server, somewhere outside web-accessible directories, but with permissions (user/group) allowing HostBill to read from it.
    Important: If you will loose or change your encryption key file (or its contents) you would not be able to access previously saved data.
