The Internet is as safe as a dark street in a dangerous neighborhood.\u00a0If you are lucky you will not be attacked but the odds are very low.\u00a0Today we want you to walk through this protected cyber sidewalk.\u00a0That is why we will show you the 5 best tips to guarantee the security of your website that if or if you have to comply.\u00a0Not only is losing your page, but it is also much more.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
The problem of Internet security is very serious.\u00a0Do you think that only the affected pages will have consequences?\u00a0You’re wrong.\u00a0Imagine you have a virtual store, you suffer an attack and your database is stolen.\u00a0How many clients will be harmed by this information theft?\u00a0Everybody.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Credit card numbers, places of residence, Identification Number, billing, even delivery dates will fall into the hands of malicious subjects.\u00a0These cybercriminals will use your customers’ data for whatever they want.\u00a0From phishing to unauthorized purchases.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
What will be the consequences for your company?\u00a0Loss of money, time and confidence.\u00a0The latter is even more painful than the others because your users will be reduced, if you are lucky, to a few.\u00a0In addition, you will leave printed in your memory that your brand is simply not reliable.\u00a0Thousands of hours spent creating a community of followers, destroyed in an attack. What kind?\u00a0We explain it to you below.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Sun Tzu in the art of war writes a very important phrase to go one step ahead of the cyberattacks on your website: “Know yourself, know your enemy and you will succeed in battle.”<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Cybercriminals, although witty, have robbery patterns.\u00a0Learning what they are will prepare you to fight them.\u00a0These that we will mention below are the most frequent:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Cross-Site Scripting (XSS):\u00a0It consists of a falsification of the website through a vulnerability in the programming language.\u00a0That is, the cybercriminal uses a website security opening to impersonate your page by one of its servers.\u00a0When one of your customers enters this forgery, the cybercriminal will steal your username and password.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
SQL Injection:\u00a0The SQL code is responsible for schematizing the entire database on your page.\u00a0This attack lies in injecting an expiatory database to get the real information.\u00a0If the attack is satisfactory, the subject may steal all stored information from your users.\u00a0And in turn, you will have the password and the user of your hosting, so you will get total control over your page.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Ransomware:\u00a0This is a new technique but the most damaging today.\u00a0It consists of encrypting all the information on your website and then asking for a reward in cryptocurrencies to retrieve it.\u00a0If you do not access, they will publish the data of your users and your website.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
DDoS attack:\u00a0The hosting of your website has a maximum bandwidth allowed.\u00a0DDoS attacks take advantage of this limit to slow down the server making it impossible for your users to navigate your site.\u00a0How do they do that?\u00a0By sending directly and from different places a large amount of empty information overloads the system.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
So far, you know the tricks of computer thieves and the serious consequences.\u00a0What remains is to shield the security of your website to ensure that you are not another number in the statistics:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
In this race to increase the security of your website, updating is essential.\u00a0Cybercriminals are elusive and every day they perfect their techniques to exploit your vulnerability.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
The vast majority of current web pages work under a CMS (content manager) such as Magento, WordPress, or Joomla.\u00a0And these are updated every month.\u00a0The most recommended is to perform these updates periodically and manually to prevent your website from collapsing due to incompatibility.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Although the programming language of your website has a harmful opening a good hosting site, it will not allow cybercriminal access.\u00a0Normally these hosts encrypt your database and in turn, increase the security to enter the root of your site.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Not only will they analyze the accuracy of your password, but they will also use two-step verification or biometric verification.\u00a0On the other hand, in case of a DDoS attack, the hosting company will block malicious attacks allowing real users to enter your site without difficulties.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
The hypertext transfer protocol is a security certificate that guarantees the protection of your website.\u00a0This figure authenticates and maintains the integrity of your users’ data.\u00a0You don’t know if you have it?\u00a0Enter your page from a browser and see if a lock appears on the left side in your address box.\u00a0If so, you already have the certificate, but run and get it now.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
This certificate does not allow cybercriminals to exploit the vulnerabilities of your page to make an XSS assault.\u00a0When the browser is redirected to a fake page, a warning will be sent to the user about the attack when they are not on an official server.\u00a0And this will prevent your customers from being scammed.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Unfortunately, if your hosting has security flaws and you don’t have a certificate, the last line in defense is the plugins.\u00a0These small programs encrypt and increase website security.\u00a0They will identify the anomalies, defend you and warn you about the problem in progress.\u00a0Of course, to install it you just have to verify that it is compatible with your CMS and that they are updated to date.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Nothing worked, your data was hijacked, it’s thousands of dollars in cryptocurrencies that you don’t own.\u00a0It doesn’t matter, you have a backup.\u00a0Although cybercriminals filter your customer data, you will have a duplicate of this information.\u00a0So you can notify them about the attack and recommend a password change.\u00a0In addition, you will have the structure of your page intact to act based on your protection protocol and recover the website security.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
The data does not lie.\u00a0You may not be part of the attacks today, but tomorrow you will.\u00a0Prepare yourself and follow these suggestions so you don’t have a hard time.\u00a0Avoid headaches and loss of information.\u00a0Cybercriminals wait in a dark corner of the internet to take a false step.\u00a0What they don’t expect is that the security of your website will be impassable.\u00a0For now.<\/p>\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
