Hi DCadmin,

Yes, it is possible to password protect an entire website!

Password Protecting your Main Domain
Your website files are within your public_html folder, so you'll want to password protect the public_html directory itself.

Password Protecting an Addon Domain
Addon domains are generally located in public_html/domain.com. To password protect an addon domain, you'll need to password protect the "domain.com" folder.

How do I Password Protect a Directory?
To password protect a directory, you'll use the "Password Protect a Directory" feature within cPanel. For more help with doing this, please see:
How to Password Protect a Directory

I hope this helps! Be sure to let us know if you have any further questions.

Thanks,

- Brad
