How to make your WordPress Website more secure
Today when the whole world is moving towards digitalization, security continues to be one of the top concerns for all websites. Many believe that WordPress being an open-source platform is vulnerable to all sorts of attacks and lacks in-built security. On the contrary, WordPress is the most secure CMS platform for your online websites to shape them with the intended look, feel, and functionality. It is always advisable to approach a good WordPress Website Development Company which will not only help you in building a good website but also take care of its security issues.
In this article, we shall discuss some tactics which implemented and followed up with WordPress security checks continually, which will help you to keep your WordPress websites more secure.
1.Choose a safe and secured hosting solution for your WordPress sites
First and foremost, choose reliable and quality hosting service providers that offer a lot of security-driven features for WordPress websites. There are some important points to be considered to choose a safe and secured hosting solution for your WordPress site such as:
- Work with good, reliable, high quality, and safe hosting providers
- Protect and secure your wp-config.php file – as the wp-config.php file is the core of your WordPress blog, protecting and securing this file makes it difficult for hackers to breach the security of your website.
- Do not allow file editing. This will not let the hacker modify any of your files even after obtaining admin access to your WordPress dashboard
2.Make sure to set up a website lockdown feature
The lockdown feature in a website takes care of the continuous brute attempts by hackers to get through the security of your website. Whenever there is a hacking attempt by repetitively using the wrong passwords, this lockdown feature locks your website and prevents unsolicited access by notifying you immediately about these unauthorized activities.
3. Always use Two-Factor Authentication :
Using the Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) module for the login page is another great feature that boosts the WordPress security measure. Here, it is necessary for the user to provide login details with two different components. Only the website owner can decide those two authentication components. For the 2FA module, you can use your regular password with a secret question, secret code, a set of characters, the Google Authenticator App, which sends a secret code to your phone and there are several other options available.
