Security and stability

#1

Fewer plugins — fewer vulnerabilities

Every extra plugin is a potential entry point. I consciously:

• limit the number of third-party plugins

• use only proven Pro-solutions

• implement critical logic with custom code

This reduces risks and increases control over the system.

#2

Authorization and Form Protection

The most common attacks target authorization and forms, so I cover these vectors:

• hiding the standard login page

• brute-force protection

• Google CAPTCHA and Cloudflare Turnstile

• protecting forms from spam and automated attacks

#3

Cloudflare and network protection

I configure Cloudflare as an active security element:

• WAF rules

• rate limiting

• DDoS protection

• suspicious traffic filtering

This allows filtering out threats before they reach the server.

#4

Session Control and Digital Fingerprints

To enhance security, I use:

• user digital fingerprints

• active session control

• additional access checks

This makes unauthorized access more difficult, even if credentials are compromised.

#5

Updates and Stability

I keep projects up to date:

• regular WordPress core updates

• control of Pro-plugin updates

• compatibility checks before deployment

This approach minimizes the risk of failures and data loss.

#6

Backups and Recovery

Security without a backup plan is an illusion, which is why I always implement recovery scenarios:

• automatic backups of files and databases

• storing backups off the main server

• ability for a quick rollback without site downtime

• tested recovery scenarios, not just a “checkbox” backup

This guarantees data preservation and minimizes risks even in critical situations.
