If a site is hacked, data is lost, reputation drops and customer trust is lost. The following 7 rules sharply reduce the risk.
1. Strong passwords
The admin password must be long, with letters, numbers and symbols. "123456" or "admin" are forbidden.
2. Update everything
An outdated platform, plugins and themes are an open door for hackers. Don't skip updates.
3. Install SSL
SSL encrypts data. It is free and mandatory.
4. Regular backup
A daily backup lets you restore the site quickly. On Sayt.uz hosting the backup is automatic.
5. Limit access
Only the necessary people should access the admin panel. Enable two-factor confirmation.
6. Remove the unnecessary
Unused plugins and files are an extra risk.
7. Choose reliable hosting
Good hosting provides protection and monitoring at the server level.
Security is constant attention, not a one-time action.
