How do WordPress Websites Get Hacked?
There’s a wide range of methods that hackers use to gain unauthorized access into a website, but there are usually a few favourites that we hear about time and time again.
Clinging on to an old version of WordPress and refusing to update is one of the main culprits of getting hacked.This is true for a lot of software.
Cybersecurity is a constant game of cat and mouse between hackers and developers. Digital criminals put a lot of effort into discovering exploits in currently available software. When developers find out about those, they make an effort to patch these up as quickly as possible.
By using an old version of WordPress (or any software) you expose yourself to those well-known exploits. It is always worth it to keep your software up to date.
This also applies to plugins, frequently hackers can find secuirty holes in out-of-date plugins that can be exploited to gain access to your website.
Weak passwords are another common reason for website’s being hacked. Did you know that a home computer with a basic graphics card can crack an 8 character password in just 8 days?
Also, if you use the same username and password across multiple websites and one of those websites gets hacked, there’s a chance that your username and password will be published on hacking forums meaning that other accounts could be comprimised too.
If your WordPress website has been hacked, or if you are concerned about it being hacked. We can help.
