WordPress Security

Default settings for WordPress leaves a new setup vulnerable.

Generally, hacked WordPress websites are more common.

Recommended Security

• It is recommended that the username be changed from default “admin” to something random.
• A random password.
• Change the location of the login page.
• Upgraded WordPress security.

Website Security

It is possible that a security breach could happen to an online business, as it is possible that it could happen to any business even ones without a website.

When working with Zeumic only you/your staff and Zeumic have access to your website.  Apart from your Zeumic Project Manager; all Zeumic staff do not have access to usernames or passwords even to carry out checks and works.

The way to defend against a hacker is:

• To keep the website software up to date.
• Keep your own antivirus and operating system fully up to date.
• And if your website experiences enough demand that it builds up a large database of customers then Zeumic recommends upgrading security in terms of additional software measures and procedural measures.

First thing first though, it is more likely you need to dramatically increase advertising and information on the website to increase conversion.  Please see this document about risk and return; Risk & Return
