Video summary
In this video, I shared how to prevent your WordPress website from being hacked using SolidWP. Here's a summary of the key points covered:
- Introduction:
- Discussed the collaboration with SolidWP, focusing on security, backups, and management.
- Highlighted that the video is sponsored but aimed to be informative by hiring an ethical hacker.
- Top Three Reasons WordPress Websites Get Hacked:
- **Weak Passwords**: Emphasized the importance of using strong passwords and avoiding common ones like "admin" or "password."
- **Outdated WordPress Core, Plugins, and Themes**: Stressed the need to keep everything updated to patch vulnerabilities.
- **Lack of Security Plugins**: Recommended using security plugins for additional protection.
- Demonstration by Ethical Hacker Ryan Dewhurst
- Ryan attempted to hack into a WordPress website without SolidWP protection using WP Scan.
- He identified vulnerabilities in outdated plugins and demonstrated how easy it is to exploit weak passwords.
- Ryan then tried to hack a site with SolidWP protection and failed due to enhanced security measures.
- SolidWP Security Features*

- Implements firewalls to block malicious attacks.
- Adds overall hardening to WordPress security.
- Why do people hack websites:
- Crypto Mining: Hackers install miners to use server resources for cryptocurrency.
- Competitor Sabotage: Less common, but involves hacking competitors.
- Fame: Hackers gain recognition within their communities for notable hacks.
