WordPress is the most popular CMS in the world and such popularity naturally draws the attention of hackers but it\u2019s our responsibility to protect from those threats by taking proper action.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mostly the attacks happen on installed themes and plugins.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Here are a few basic but important guidelines to protect your WordPress website<\/a> from those attacks-<\/p>\n\n\n\n This is a must needed task to be performed to prevent security compromises to WordPress websites. Always update the latest version of the WordPress Core.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you have a default configuration then WordPress does this job automatically. When the core team releases the minor version, it will automatically be updated to your website. Normally Security fixes are released as minor versions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You need to keep all the installed plugins up to date. This task will not be done automatically except for some of the plugins. WordPress provides a one-click update to maximum plugins.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Some of the premium plugins need manual updates so here you will need developer help.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You should always install trusted themes\/plugins from trusted sources. You can check the number of downloads and ratings of the theme\/plugin before using it. Untrusted themes \/plugins are the biggest reason for hacking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n At the time of WordPress installation, always use a strong password and an unpredicted username ( but do not use admin or website name as username).<\/p>\n\n\n\n WordPress often transfers\/receives data from browsers and web servers. If you use HTTP, this information will be transferred into plain text.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If a hacker gets your sensitive information like payment information and\/or login credentials then he can manipulate those data. So, install SSL and use HTTPS, it encrypts the post data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n It\u2019s the first line of defense that checks security vulnerabilities in your website. There are several free plugins available that can help to protect your site.<\/p>\n\n\n\n With the help of these plugins, you can scan the website and find out the vulnerabilities and also restrict failed login limits. Some of the plugins like Wordfence Security, Sucuri Security, iThemes Security, and All in One WP Security & Firewall are popular plugins.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Contact Us \u2013<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n For the last 15+ years, Minerva Infotech is a super-specialist in WordPress security & development services in almost 19 countries In 1300+ projects for 235+ clients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you want to ultra-secure your WordPress website, we can help you!
