Doesn't my host already protect my website?
Your website host may provide minimal protection in the same way a door & a lock would. However, hackers are getting more sophisticated, which means you need to be EXTRA vigilant to protect your digital resources.
How can I protect my website & my visitors?
At the very least, begin with a website security review. From there we can review several options to shore up your website’s security according to your particular needs and budget. There are both security & maintenance packages available.
What’s the danger?
What can really happen w/o protection?
Brute Force Attacks
Automated attacks on websites are common. Brute force attacks make large numbers of guesses at your admin username/password in rapid succession.
Executing Malicious Code
Malware Infections
CNBC warns 75% of websites at risk of Malware infections. USA Today adds, infected sites are passing Malware to visitors without even knowing it.
What Hackers Want
Are you thinking, “I don’t have anything valuable on my site? Who would want to hack me?” The fact is, hackers DO want access to your resources.
Successful attacks will negatively
impact your business
Website Downtime
If your site relies on daily traffic to keep your business afloat, the downtime resulting from an attack may be intolerable.
Google Blacklisting
If Google or your host notices Malware on your site, it can take a long time to get off of the Blacklist – you WILL lose traffic & ranking.
Loss of Digital Assets
If hackers prevail & you don’t have reliable backups ready to restore, all your digital assets are at risk of being lost, corrupted, or infected.
Damaged Reputation
If clients become infected or their credit information is compromised, your reputation may be damaged, and that’s not easy to restore.
Protect yourself by becoming both proactive & defensive
The fact is, it takes several levels of protection to properly harden your site against attacks. The good news is, we can take steps together to accomplish this without breaking the bank. Because no level of protection is 100% secure, we will also put a disaster recovery plan in place to recover your site quickly if you are attacked. Listed below are a some of the plans you can select to start protecting yourself & your website visitors right away. Each of the plans below requires an initial $99 Health & Security Review so I can suggest the most appropriate plan of action for your business. I may recommend we set you up on a managed hosting plan with WP Engine, or a security plan with a provider like Sucuri. In such cases, you may end up paying fees to those providers each month instead of myself. In either case, you will be protected.
