WordPress powers millions of sites—and attracts constant attack attempts. These ten steps dramatically reduce risk on any Capnis hosting plan.

• Keep WordPress core, themes, and plugins updated
• Use strong admin passwords and limit login attempts
• Install a free SSL certificate and force HTTPS
• Remove unused plugins and default admin usernames
• Enable two-factor authentication in your client area
• Schedule automatic backups and test restores
• Set correct file permissions via your control panel
• Use a security plugin for malware scanning
• Disable file editing in wp-config.php
• Monitor uptime and failed login alerts

Managed VPS customers can request additional hardening from Capnis support.
