Did you know that 60% of website breaches involve vulnerabilities for which a patch was available but not applied? This means having software with known vulnerabilities installed on your site gives hackers the blueprints they need to take over your site.
Our friends at Cloudflare recently revealed that hacking and phishing attempts have been up by 37% and, on some days, they are blocking between four and six times the number of attacks they would usually see, since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Unfortunately, this means the risk to your website has significantly grown … and that’s why having a solid WordPress security strategy is more important than ever.
