WordPress is by far the most popular content management system (CMS) in the world. And because it powers more than 40% of the sites on the internet<\/a>, it also tends to attract the attention of cybercriminals who would attempt to exploit vulnerabilities in WordPress sites\u2014like outdated plugins or core files\u2014to gain unauthorized access and wreak havoc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Maybe they\u2019ll hold your data for ransom, maybe they\u2019ll steal the financial data of your users and attempt to use it for their own financial gain\u2014no matter what the end goal of a cybercriminal is, your best chance to keep your site safe is through a solid defensive strategy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
