Hackers Look for 5 Specific Weaknesses

How many does YOUR site have? Take this 60-second security check to find out.

🛡 Login Test: How strong is your WordPress password?

🔒
Random 16+ charactersGenerated by a password manager
🔑
Mix of letters, numbers, symbolsAt least 10 characters
🤔
Something memorableA word or phrase I can remember
⚠
I use the same password elsewhereIt's easy to remember
🔄 Update Test: Are your plugins and themes current?
72% of hacked WordPress sites had at least one outdated plugin.
✅
All currentUpdated within the last week

⏳
Months behindI've been meaning to update
🤷
No ideaI don't check plugins

60% of small businesses that lose their data shut down within 6 months.
💪
Automated daily backupsStored off-site, tested regularly

🏠
My host might have one?I've never checked
❌
No backups at allI didn't think about it
