How to improve website security to avoid getting hacked

When you commit to backing up a website, you’re actually putting yourself ahead of over 30,000+ businesses operating online today!

How?

Well, according to Techjury, 30,000 websites are hacked daily and 64% of companies worldwide have suffered a cyber attack.

Web Security 101: Why you don’t want to get hacked

Getting your website hacked kills your business profitability, as you may:

• Lose your investment in your website
• Lose customer trust
• Have antivirus software and search engines alert users your website is malicious
• Have customer payments diverted to another bank account
• Spend countless hours and thousands of dollars remediating the damages

That’s why all of our website managed plans include:

• 3 firewalls to block intruders
• Free virus and malware removal
• Daily backups of your website
• Fully isolated containers to avoid cross-contamination between websites

But what if you…

Want to manage your own website security?

If you prefer managing your own website security, here are some tools to get you started:

• Sucuri offers a firewall and malware removal
• Wordfence is a popular WordPress security solution but it will slow down your website
• Keeper Security, LastPass and Dashlane are password managers to secure your credentials

Although there are several website backup applications their effectiveness tends to be unpredictable.

I recommend that you get backup included in your hosting similar to our website managed plans.

You’ll want to verify the terms as several hosts put a limit on the size of the backup which may render them useless.

If you want a second pair of eyes on your website, get your free website audit or complimentary consultation.

That’s it for today!
