What is website security?
Website security is any action or application taken to ensure website data is not exposed to hackers or cyber criminals or to prevent exploitation of websites in any way.
Website security protects your website from:
DDoS attacks- These attacks can slow or crash your site entirely, making it inaccessible to visitors.
Malware - Short for “malicious software,” malware is a very common threat used to steal sensitive customer data, distribute spam, allow cybercriminals to access your site, and more.
Blacklisting - Your site may be removed from search engine results and flagged with a warning that turns visitors away if search engines find malware.
Vulnerability exploits – Cyber criminals can access a site and data stored on it by exploiting unsecure areas of your website-like an outdated plugin or insecure page code.
Defacement - This attack replaces your website’s content with a hacker or cyber criminal’s malicious content.
Com1Web can run a website audit to detect any exploits in your website/web code- and install security measures to prevent any of the things mentioned above from happening – or if your website has already been hacked or compromised- our security team can fix the exploited areas and add security to stop the hackers in their tracks.
Stolen data - From email addresses to payment information, cybercriminals frequently go after visitor or customer data stored on a site.
Phishing schemes - Phishing doesn’t just happen in email – some attacks take the form of web pages that look legitimate but are designed to trick the user into providing sensitive information.
Session hijacking - Some cyber attacks can take over a user’s session and force them to take unwanted actions on a site.
Malicious redirects - Certain attacks can redirect visitors from the site they intended to visit to a malicious website.
SEO Spam - Unusual links, pages, and comments can be put on a site to confuse your visitors and drive traffic to malicious websites.
