Top 5 Tools for Stopping New and Emerging Attacks Before They Reach Your Website
by Bill Acholla
A few months ago, I started my research on website security and their many tools. With so many hacks happening around the world, it was just fair to try to see how safe our data really is.
People follow various tips and go over security checklists to make sure they are following the best practices. A way to gauge the level of security your website has would be to go over the security plugins your hosting website offers.
During my search, the first website that stood out with a number of security plugins was WordPress.
Even before I started the research, many people requested me to do a blog on how to secure a WordPress website from hackers. I guess, in the wake of hacks happening all over the world, people have become more vigilant with concern to web security.
For each one of us who want to get our voice out in the world, WordPress has been the ultimate resource. From fashion to sports, the website caters to all industries and provides quality services.
But when it comes to WordPress security, how efficient are the tools?
And so I got down to researching all the available tools that save WordPress websites from hackers. The list had quite a few contenders but here are the top 5:
- Wordfence
- Sucuri
- 1Password
- Cloudflare
- BulletProof Security
This post will review all 5 WordPress plugins.
