How to Protect my Website from Hackers

  • Hi All,

    We have recently launched our new website https://www.resultfirst.com.We have developed this website in WordPress. I am ok with the WordPress but my only concern with WordPress is to protect my website from Hackers. I got to know that WordPress website is easy to hack as compare to other CMS like Joomla and Drupal.

    Can anyone suggest to improve the security layers for the websites those are developed in WordPress??

  • I was facing the same issue for my one of client websites https://conferoassociates.com/ and researched over WordPress forum. I tried a security plugins
    iThemes Security
    to protect the website and till now it’s safe.
    I have taken few necessary steps to protect that website like

    • Protected login area “Changed wp-admin path”
    • Taking backup of complete database in regular manner
    • Activited email alert while editing/renaming/uploading any file on server
    • Malware scanning is enabled
    • Enabled Brute Force Protection
    • Enabled the hide backend feature
    • Enabled strong password enforcement

    The good thing with WordPress is that there is always a Plugin for all your needs, but the second side of the coin is that it is very insecure so before activating any Plugin please go through the instructions and take complete backup of your database.
    Hope It Helps.
    Thanks
    Raghwendra
