Leech protection detects and stops accounts whose password is being shared or abused.

1. Log in to cPanel.
2. Go to Security > Leech Protection.
3. Click the directory you want to protect (usually a password-protected area).
4. Set the maximum number of logins allowed within a 2-hour window.
5. Choose what happens when the limit is exceeded (for example, redirect or disable the user).
6. Click Enable.

Tip: Use this on members-only or password-protected sections to catch shared or leaked credentials.
