I spent St. Patrick’s Day in Ft. Worth with the Ft. Worth WordPress Users Group. We had a great time discussing securing WordPress websites.
I have uploaded an audio recording of my talk and embedded my slides. The recording was made with my iPhone. So bear that in mind if the quality is lacking. 🙂
Overview of the Workshop
This workshop focuses on a few important things to shore up on your site to strengthen it the most.
- Using strong passwords
- Updating WordPress, plugins, and themes
- Using a quality host
Plugins recommendations are made to help with each of these three and what to do it you are hacked is covered as well.
