Information. Your business is built on it. Your customers rely on it. The web is full of it. But how secure is that information?
To many of us, hackers are a faceless entity. An unknown threat using seemingly magical methods to steal away the information we all rely on.
This month, we take a quick look at what it looks like from the bad guys' perspective as your security is breached and your information is siphoned away to later be sold to the highest bidder. We'll examine a few of the most common attacks that target WordPress sites, including Brute Force, Cross Site Scripting, and SQL Injection.
Many of these can be easily defended against if you properly understand them, and our goal is to pull aside the curtain and reveal how these attacks work, so that you can better equip your WordPress site to handle them.
