Locking Down Wordpress

by Michael Pick

It’s easy to blame WordPress when your client’s site gets hacked and you’re trying to talk them off the ledge because their beloved site is now hawking Viagra on every single page. Your clients start to question you, and to question this WordPress thing you told them would be so easy to use and maintain.

The reality is that you can take control of security for your WordPress installations, and while there’s no 100% pure fix or safeguard, taking the right precautions and knowing what to do if things go pear-shaped is priceless when you’re shipping WordPress projects out in the wild.

In Locking Down WordPress, seasoned WordPress pros Rachel Baker, Brad Williams, and John Ford take you through everything you need to know to make sure you have WordPress security under control.
