Website security is essential for protecting your data, your customers, and your online presence. Here are the key practices we recommend at Aviumshost:
Essential Security Measures:
- Install SSL Certificates — Encrypt data between users and your site.
- Enable Firewall & Malware Scanning — Use ModSecurity and tools like ImunifyAV.
- Update All Software Regularly — This includes CMS, themes, plugins, and scripts.
- Use Secure FTP (SFTP) — Instead of standard FTP.
- Backup Regularly — Use Aviumshost’s automatic backup feature or your own.
Even one overlooked weakness can lead to a breach. If you're unsure, Aviumshost can audit your account or provide security hardening advice.
