80% OF HACKED WORDPRESS SITES ARE NOT UPGRADED

Around 80% of all hacked WordPress sites find themselves vulnerable due to the simple fact that they have not been updated properly!

If you don’t regularly update your website, it becomes more difficult to upgrade, ultimately taking longer to bring everything to the current, tested WP version.

This oversight leaves your website vulnerable to malware, hacking and a litany of other security compromises. This is why we stress that regular updates and backups are crucial! That being said, it’s our experience that even waiting a few days to perform necessary updates can put your site at greater risk.

When a security vulnerability is discovered, often the details of the exploitable code are published on the Internet. Hackers can immediately write ‘bots’ to automatically ‘crawl’ or scour the web and exploit these vulnerabilities.

Aside from brute force hacks to obtain your login information, having outdated themes, plugins, and WordPress versions remain the number one way hackers are able to gain access to your site!

It must be noted that even deactivated themes and plugins can leave your system vulnerable. So it is best to update and also clear all outdated, irrelevant versions.

The world of technology around us is constantly changing and hackers are finding new vulnerabilities every day due to errors and bugs left in the code. You can see that it is urgent and crucial for you to keep up with all updates, and we can help you be proactive in this on a regular basis for your peace of mind and for the reliable security of your website!
