I don't really know much about this, but my opinion is cPanel. That's what I use.

Well, I really don't care much for cPanel, as all the bugs and security holes. But I would think DirectAdmin is pretty secure, since it's far more stable.

Also, the control panel is as secure as the person managing the server. Meaning, just because a person has a secure CP, it's still is up to the Admin.

I did not know that there were a lot of security holes in cPanel.

Well, the last one was that user request his password via email, someone could use that to reboot the server and stuff.

There aren't a lot, but the fact is it's kinda buggy, which make me wonder what else it wrong.

Cpanel is one of the most insecure in my opinion, plesk + ensim have better security models

What I hear is Ensim is the most secure. I have not played with the new 4.0 yet but looking at it there are security settings the admin/reseller can set when creating a new domain.

I have also heard that Ensim is the most secure.
I don't think they release as many security hole fixes as cPanel anyway

I have also heard Plesk was secure, like TheLinuxGuy said. Anyone know about H-Sphere? It doesn't look too bad in regards to security issues

As far as I'm aware, Plesk is the most secure control panel.

in what way is it the most secure?
What exactly could happen if a host used an insecure control panel?
Could the sites on the server be hacked?

I'm not sure myself but I have heard that cPanel is NOT one of the most secure.. but I don't know anything about this myself..

I've heard alot of possitive things about Ensim Pro though.

Ensim Pro is very secure. I have been using it for a few years now. Excellent stuff.
