Some entrepreneurs do not understand the role of securing their website, or they overlook this point or focus on other things that they think are more important. I've been through this once, so now I understand how important it is to secure your website. Recently, https://prosvit.design/websites-for-accountants/ created a new website design for accounting firms because I want to develop in this niche. I made sure that the boys secured my page in the future so that I wouldn't lose all my clients' data. They did this in addition to creating the design and content on the site. I am proud to work with such competent companies.

There are some tips to protecting your site against WordPress hacks.

1 – Use Strong Passwords & Management
One way to stop people from hacking your account is to create complex passwords. People who log into many different services, like wp-admin logins and databases, need long and complex passwords. When someone needs to remember dozens of passwords without even writing them down, they may use the same password across the board. However, this isn't a safe practice since one account can be hacked, and all their other charges will be vulnerable.
2 – Use the Principle of Least Privilege
Ensure the user you are granting access to has a low level of privilege in your system. Then, remove their access as soon as possible after completing their task. This is what least privilege means.
3 – Keep WordPress Plugins Secure & Updated
By installing WordPress and constantly updating it, as well as using plugins from a large community of developers, you can be sure that you have a secure website.

A plugin is a door into your WordPress site, and when there are many "side entrances", hackers can take advantage of them. Use the best security methods to protect your site via all doors and avoid inviting more vulnerabilities.
4 – Use a WordPress Hardening Method
  • You can use the following hardening methods to prevent WordPress from hacking:
  • Adding additional allow/deny rules via your .htaccess file
  • RestrictingUR login Ls to specific IP range(s)
  • Protecting your wp-config file
  • Blocking includes
5 – Prevent a WordPress Hack with a Website Firewall
A common issue is that when you update, it makes your plugin or theme give errors. This can leave your site vulnerable to hacks and cyber attackers.
