WHAT IS SITE SECURITY?

WordPress like most other pieces of software is vulnerable to cyber attacks and hackers normally target
WordPress websites. WordPress powers more than 40% of websites around the world. This popularity makes it a
big target for hackers which is why it is absolutely critical to ensure that you upgrade your WordPress to the latest
version as soon as it is available. Performing these updates is equally important for the plugins as they can also
pose a security risk. This can be easily done by a few clicks within your cPanel and WordPress dashboards.
