"Protect your WordPress website with a layered defense.
Business owners should take serious steps to avoid significant losses in a cyberattack. As a WordPress site owner, you should prioritize hardening your site’s defenses and securing your user accounts to prevent denial of service attacks, data breaches, and hacks. Maintaining software updates, especially for the plugins you use, and a sensible user security policy following the principle of the least privilege are the foundational layers of a solid, proactive defense.
WordPress websites are most at risk when vulnerable plugins and themes aren’t updated or replaced. Vulnerabilities emerge over time in all software, so maintenance is essential. There is a very high probability a WordPress site with 20-30 plugins will have at least one new vulnerability if no updates have been applied for as little as a month. An equally common source of hacked websites is insecure, poorly managed user accounts with weak, stolen, or recycled passwords."
