Why Wordpress is Not Completely Safe
Since its creation, Wordpress has gained much popularity
and rightly so, because it can be used even by people
who are not wizards at code writing and website
creation. Not only is it free, but also customizable as per
your needs. However, in the recent past, there have been
a few security issues that have emerged with this tool.
But there is no need to worry, because there are plenty
of easy ways out too!
Even though you might have heard of Wordpress,
there is a chance that you might not know what it
exactly is.
In very simple words, Wordpress is a free program that
allows people to start their own blogs. However, on a
deeper level, this is a tool that enables websites to
manage all the content with ease. Wordpress is based
on PHP and MySQL and functions on a web hosting
service.
Since Wordpress is a free program, it can be used by
almost anyone; however, it is people who are looking
to set up websites or enable content management
systems on their existing websites, who use it the
most. In addition, many innovative bloggers, who are
willing to get their minds and thoughts out there, are
also using Wordpress.
Benefits of Wordpress
There is no reason why you should not use Wordpress,
because the number of benefits that come along with
this tool are truly incredible. Just some of them include:
• Very easy to use
• Extremely cost effective
• Websites can be accessed from anywhere
• Perfectly acclimatised for search engines and social
networking sites
• Completely customizable
• Plenty of plugins on offers
• Allows multiple users
• Built in blog
• Offers plenty of growth and modifications
opportunities
Security issues with Wordpress
Over the past few years, a few issues have cropped up with
Wordpress and this has been a cause of alarm, mainly
because this is such a widely used tool. There are primarily
two issues and these are:
• Concerns related to login attempts
• Concerns related to what could happen if the login succeed
You would have quite obviously put in a lot of love and
effort into your website, and the last thing you would
want is someone hacking into it and stealing it away
from you. This could happen if someone tries to login
into your account and someone who is smart enough
could actually do it, especially if you are not careful
enough.
Not let’s imagine a scenario where someone actually
manages to successfully login you’re your website,
there are plenty of things that could go horribly wrong.
Just some of the things an unauthorised user could do
are:
• Add new files
• Modify the files that are already present
• Add more users, which could lead to more havoc
• Change existing passwords to block out original users
• Introduce spyware or malware
• Turn a great website into a spam site
There is no real need to panic because there are some
ways of ensuring that a website remains safe at all
times and is protected from a range of attacks. These
methods include:
• Creating a strong password, one which is not easy to
hack
• Ensure that are regular backups, so that all information
and content is safe
• There is an add-on on offer, which will put a limit on
the number of login attempts
• The admin user name should definitely be changed
• Sensitive files should always be kept secure
In conclusion, Wordpress, till date, remains one of the
best tools for content management and online
blogging, provided, users ensure they take all
precautionary measures to keep their website safe. In
addition, since the measures are quite easy to take, it
would be outright silly not to induct the same.
