Let’s start the week with WordPress

I am going to promise you a good news story for the “Wednesday Bit” tomorrow as we start the week off with another vulnerability with WordPress that is probably impacting many organisations without their knowlege.

Why?

Because they just let their web designers get on with the website without any due dilligence. The board and senior managers see report on web site visitors, SEO and traction and never give a thought to the fact these statistics that they grade the web designer’s work on are nothing if the site is hacked and the organisation’s reputation is left in ruins.

How much are you relying on your web designer to protect your reputation?

Threat actors taget WordPress and WordPress plug-ins because the potential numbers of victims is huge.

Here is the latest vulnerablity, LiteSpeed Cache (LS Cache) and this is a good one – being used on over five million sites and impacting the administrator logins.
