Website security isn\'t just for big corporations. Small business sites are often targeted because they are perceived as easier to breach. Here’s how you can protect your digital asset.
Key Security Measures:
- Use Strong Passwords: For your hosting, your website admin area, and everything else. Use a password manager.
- Enable HTTPS (SSL Certificate): This encrypts data between your site and your visitors, showing a padlock icon in the browser. It\'s essential for trust and SEO.
- Keep Software Updated: If your site uses a CMS like WordPress, always keep the core software, plugins, and themes updated to patch vulnerabilities.
- Regular Backups: Regularly back up your website\'s files and database. If something goes wrong, you can restore a clean version.
- Use a Web Application Firewall (WAF): A WAF can block malicious traffic before it even reaches your site.
- Limit User Permissions: Don\'t give every user administrator access. Grant only the permissions necessary for their role.
- Regular Security Scans: Use tools to scan your website for malware and vulnerabilities.
