Improving your website’s security against hackers is one of the most important things you can do for your website. And when it comes to website security, hacking, malware, and infections, you can count on three fundamental truths.
1. You’ve already had a website hack.
2. You are going to experience a website hack.
3. Your hacked already and don’t know it.
Website security concerns are at an all-time high. Every day there are websites or email spam hacks, state-sponsored hacks, hacktivists, and otherwise website security exploits. You can take protective steps to fortify your website security defenses on your website and your website hosting server plan. While there are no guarantees to rout a hacker, you can make yourself less targeted.
PROTECTING CONTENT MANAGEMENT WEBSITES
Content management system websites, including Word Press, Joomla, Magento, Moodle, Drupal, Moodle, and other CMS systems, have internal things to protect from hacking. These include; security login challenges, protecting or hiding login pages and folders, and strong password encryption. Many of these website platforms offer ready-made plugins and modules that provide a layer of protection in the website.
PROTECTING NON-CMS WEBSITES
A non-CMS website has built-in open-source HTML, HTM, PHP, or ASP pages. Non-CMS websites suffer from weak FTP login credentials and SQL injections via website contact forms. One of today’s most robust protection methods is ‘Cloud-based firewall protection.’ These services offer complete website security, protection, and monitoring, such as Sucuri and Sitelock. A cloud-based firewall prevents terrible actors from accessing your website hosting server, but they are detected and removed if they do get through.
CONCLUSION
Hackers are like digital predators, probing the landscape for weak, easy prey. And once they enter the door- they will keep coming back repeatedly until you take concrete, proactive steps to block their hacking efforts.
