Don’t Get Hacked
At ProspectMX, a lot of our core technologies are founded with a wordpress “skeleton”. I was looking through my google reader today and I came accross a very helpful article from Matt Cutts titled, “Three Tips To Secure Your Wordpress Installation”. In the article, Matt talks about the importance of:
- Securing your wp-admin directory
- Hiding (Securing) the list of plugins that you run
- Staying up to date with patches and security updates
I would consider this a must read if you’re currently building sites and/or blogs with Wordpress. Alex, our technology director, actually had a site that he manges hacked a while back… so it does really happen.
