WordPress security: know the risks, seize the opportunities

However, with regular updates, professional maintenance and high-quality security plugins, your website will remain secure and reliable.
Frequently Asked Questions
I think my website has been hacked — what now?
Get in touch as directly as possible via the emergency route — phone number in the chat window, no form queue — because with a hack, what matters most is how quickly someone starts the clean-up. If possible, don't change anything yourself beforehand, so we can see what actually happened before traces get overwritten. We then check what was changed, remove the malware and restore the website — via a backup if necessary. After that we close the gap through which access happened, as far as it can be found, so the same route isn't immediately open again.
Can it happen again, even after you've cleaned up the website?
Yes, it can — no provider can rule out a hack, us included. What can differ is how quickly a repeat incident is noticed and how quickly the site is clean again. That's exactly what ongoing maintenance aims for: baseline protection through regular, tested updates and backups, plus monitoring that catches a breach before your visitors or Google do, wherever possible. There's no guarantee for that, but a lower probability and a faster response, yes.
Are WordPress's automatic updates enough, or do I need maintenance?
WordPress's own automatic updates usually aren't enough: they typically only cover minor core security fixes, not plugins, themes and major version changes that need testing before going live. Most security vulnerabilities aren't in the WordPress core anyway, but in plugins and themes that someone picked once and hasn't looked at since. Maintenance takes on exactly this checking: installing updates, then testing whether everything still works, and monitoring in the background instead of hoping nothing happens. Without it, the site technically stays at the level of the last manual intervention.
Should I move away from WordPress altogether (e.g. Cloudflare, static)?
Sometimes yes, often no — it depends on how your website is used. If it needs an editorial team, a shop or several language versions, WordPress with good maintenance usually remains the more practical solution. If your website barely changes anymore, upstream protection such as Cloudflare or even a static build with no login and no plugins is an option that significantly shrinks the attack surface. Since we work with WordPress ourselves and still offer conversions, we say this even when a switch means less recurring revenue for us — that assessment is part of the security check.
