Determination of optimal security settings for LMS Moodle

E-learning usage at high-education institutions represents prerequisite of new, modern and quality education. Implementation of suitable learning management system (LMS) is only a first step in realizing this need. Through the last few years LMS Moodle imposed itself as the best solution, and is becoming one of the most common used systems in Croatia. Although it is developed by the „ open source“ model that allows quicker and more effective reaction to security bugs inside the LMS itself, vulnerability of the mentioned system greatly depends on the security measures configured on the server. In this paper, we will present a summary of most common security flaws and suggest optimal settings of Moodle LMS and the server itself. Our claims will be supplemented by the results of stress tests and security analysis in order to determine the optimal settings.
