The Real Weakest Link? Your Website.
Most businesses secure their front doors. But when it comes to digital infrastructure, we still see too many open windows. Your website might be the easiest way into your company, and a lot of the time, it’s often overlooked until it’s too late.
We created a 3-part video series to walk business owners through what’s happening behind the scenes, and what they can do about it. If you missed it, here’s the quick recap with something extra at the end.
Part 1: Has Your Site Already Been Breached?
Cyber attacks are often silent. Malware can sit undetected for months. The first video shows you how to check your site using a free scanner like SecurityHeaders.com. We’ve seen sites score an F, a lot of which are sites running order forms, logins, or contact pages that collect customer data.
This isn’t fear. It’s a reminder: visibility is the first step.
Part 2: Did Your Developer Leave You Exposed?
Not all developers are focused on security. We outlined a few questions to help you assess where you stand:
- Are backups running daily?
- Have those backups been tested recently?
- Are all plugins, themes, and the CMS up to date?
- Is there an active web application firewall, such as Cloudflare or Sucuri in place?
If any of these get a hesitant answer, your site is likely vulnerable.
Part 3: Our 3-Step Protection Plan
There’s a simple process we use to bring sites up to a baseline. Every smart business we work with follows this:
- Keep Systems Updated – This includes patches, themes, plugins, and monitoring.
- Backup & Host Securely – Make sure backups are automated, offsite, and verified.
- Audit & Prepare – Run periodic audits, document a response plan, and address compliance needs.
No fluff, just the essentials.
