Hey this is Anna, the how- to-girl at 10Web a managed WordPress hosting platform
powered by Google cloud. WordPress is increasing continuously in its extreme
popularity but so is the interest from the side of hackers nowadays every
website owner should prioritize security and reliability when choosing a host
that is why we are going to discuss in this video the most common issues
connected with security and reliability and how 10web is preventing them so
let's get started before that don't forget to subscribe to our channel for
more insightful videos and hit the bell button to receive notifications every
time we have something new. What you need to know about hackers is that they do
not always choose a particular website when hacking them so are they it happens
automatically hackers have BOTS that crawl websites with known
vulnerabilities and perform their attacks hackers don't always care about
the prominence of your website so having a newly launched website it's not
actually actually an advantage for you now you might ask yourself why exactly
do hackers hack websites and here are some common things that they want from
your website when they perform attacks number one is to steal your data credit
card information mailing lists and etc number two is to use your website
resources in order to perform DDoS attacks or send out spam emails number
three is to redirect your visitors to other websites in order to gain money
from ads and number four is to install malware on your server and infect your
users computers with that in general the security issues occur due to unsecure
pluggin installations and WordPress themes in order to prevent these types
of security issues we attempt to put a lot of efforts and emphasis towards
enhancing our security as a mass WordPress hosting platform 10Web is
specifically and specialized in hosting for WordPress websites
let's put Managed WordPress hosting to aside for a moment and talk about shared
Hostings which is what people usually choose because of lower prices however
what these people do not consider is that the security risks with shared
hosting is extremely high and they have to pay additional money in order to
provide these security risks from happening in case of shared hosting so
all the websites are hosted in the same one big server and if anything happens
to one of the websites it's going to have a chain effect on the rest of the
website and as if your website is hosted on this server it will definitely get
affected now let's understand why exactly these security issues happen
with shared hosting number one is the lack of customization of DDoS mitigation
and website data backup number two is the slow load time of the server caused
by sharing of resources number three is the vulnerability towards malware
attacks and number four is network facing services like web FTP mail and
etc now back to managed WordPress hosting providers, 10Web in specific, at 10Web
all your website's data is separated in isolated containers meaning that
anything happening to other websites will not affect yours as well you get
constant monitoring support and Malware and vulnerability scans meaning
that you won't one day wake up and see that your you can't access your own web
site or that someone else has gotten a hold of your data
now let's discuss all of these security components one by one in cryptography
brute-force attack is one of the simplest and easiest ways of attacking
web sites its main function is to try out different combinations of usernames
and passwords until they get it correctly and trust me it's not going to
take them too long to get it correctly now at 10Web in order to prevent this
from happening we let you have log-in limitations set up for yourself now we
enable you to decide how many times people
should fail inputting the correct user name and password until they get blocked
what timeframe do they have to try out inputting the correct username and
password until they get blocked how long they stay blocked and what message they
get once they are blocked 10Web security service allows you to scan your
website for security problems and get comprehensive information about the
issues and the potential risks connected with your website now the security
service of 10Web is divided into five components which are issues ignored
issues of vulnerabilities setting and scheduling now keep this in mind because
we're going to come back to them shortly overall the service includes scanning
your core plugins and themes scanning the file changes and comparing them to
the original versions and restarting the original versions in case of something
has gone wrong as long as your 10Web subscription is active the number of
scannings that you do is unlimited for you you can also set up automatic scan
so that you save your time on that DDoS attacks are a common potential danger to
your business performing DDoS attacks to your website will slower your service
performance and you can even shut down your website entirely now in order to
protect your website for from DDoS attacks at 10Web we have an extremely
powerful firewall there are free and automatic audits being conducted here at
10Web for your website and if the issue is extremely critical
our team can even do manual audits and in order to be able to get use of these
audits services you only need to have your website hosted at 10Web
creating one at 10Web or migrating one with only one click oh I should also
mention that on top of all these security services 10Web also
offers managed wordpress hosting at the price of shared hosting so you do not
have to worry about the high prices of managed WP Hostings anymore 10Web
annual pricing starts at $10 per month in case of one website hosted at 10Web
and all the websites get Google PageSpeed score of 95 plus and the
prices can go as low as six dollars per website in case of 10 or more websites
hosted at 10Web now let's check out top security and what it has to offer now
this is 10Web's dashboard so once you create a new website at 10Web or once
you migrate your existing website to 10Web using the 14-Day free trial this is
the dashboard that you will land on and once you are already over here on the left
side as you see there is a security button over here now click on it
from here you need to enable it so that these security plugin gets installed on
your website automatically
so once the plug-in is installed on your website if this is the page that you'll
land on as already mentioned in the video
our security consists of five components which is issues ignored issues
vulnerabilities settings and scheduling now over here is where all the security
issues that you have are going to appear and on the right side as you see you can
scan your website for any sorts of issues and vulnerabilities now let's
click on that
now the issues tab shows all the recent modifications that were made to your
files so you can click on a certain file and see when and who made the changes
what types of changes were made and if this wasn't you you can always restore
the original version and if everything is fine you can ignore it and all the
ignored issues will appear right over here so since my website doesn't have
any issues I wouldn't see anything over here now the next tab is vulnerabilities
so once you scan your website for issues and vulnerabilities any sorts of
vulnerabilities and risks that you have are going to appear right over here we
always have the up-to-date database containing no wordpress or plugin
vulnerabilities especially those of particular versions now clicking on
these vulnerabilities will open a mini box with the link where you can update
the plug-in or WordPress to just get rid of those vulnerabilities now once you're
done with the vulnerabilities section you can move on to the settings section
and this is where you'll see all the configurations that you can make
connected with your website you can decide whether you want your performance
checkups to have checks for vulnerabilities or do you want them to
have checks for plug-in vulnerabilities or you want to compare your core files
with their repository versions to detect changes everything is configurable and
you can set them to yes or no from right over here our personal recommendation to
you would be to keep everything on yes because let's face it you want to be
safe as sorry now once you're done with this you can check out the schedule link
and from here you only need to if you want to schedule your vulnerability and
issue scanning your reporters checkups you will need to turn on this button
from right over here and this is where you
decide whether you want your automatic checkups to be on a monthly basis on a
weekly or a daily basis now everything is based on your preference and you can
also decide when these backups I mean checkups will start and you set up
the time from here one thing that you need to keep in mind is that the
scheduling time is using your a main account times out and also you can
choose the weekday that you would like these checkups to happen so once you're
done with all these configurations and setups you can save it from right over
here and you'll be done for the security's time to talk about another
important component which is reliability websites are dynamic you make changes to
it every day you change pages you add different media you take them out and
etc etc and sometimes you may make some human errors which are only
natural and in those cases you only want to have your data protected and safe so
that you can restore them so that nothing's go nothing goes wrong now you
also do not want your website's data to get corrupted so in order to ensure all
this you will need to have a good backup and a good backup is provided by 10Web
now let me explain everything to you backup plugins and services have been
created to ease the lives of all the website owners now as I mentioned there
are many cases in which you will need a backup for your website the first one
was human errors next one can be I don't know
hosting failures or software failures during upgrades there are just different
situations and in all those cases you all need to have a very reliable and
useful backup let's talk about the backup solutions that other companies
offer and the problems connected with them the first problem is frequency now
usually other backup solutions are going to offer you daily or manual backups and
the changes that you make within the timeframe of the last backup and
next backup that you're gonna make are not going to be saved so in these cases
you can of course buy a backup solution and pay additional five to 15 dollars
but it's really not a good option the next problem is the lack of information
and accessibility about the coverage now WordPress websites are based off of
databases and files now you want to know what your hosting provider is going to
backup is it going to be just a database or the files or both and also you
want to make sure that you have access to whatever is being backed up next
many hosting providers say that they provide regular backups however they do
not always store in multiple versions of your website and even if they do it's
not always that the these backups are encrypted meaning that a lot of security
issues can occur with your backups and they cannot be saved and maybe whenever
you want to restore them it won't be even possible at 10Web the backup
service that we offer is called the differential backup now a differential
backup is the backup that saves only the changes that have been made from the
last backup that was created now the two other types of backup solutions that are
available in the market are called full backup and incremental backup now the
main difference between differential backup and the rest of the types of
backups is that with differential backup you get faster restore compared to
incremental backup and you have those required less storage space than
compared to the full backup now at 10Web what we provide you with 1000 backup
points so you can restore your website from all these backup points whenever
you want and also we conduct an automatic full backup to your website
and I'm going to keep it in the AWS s3 storage now let's check out the backup
service of 10Web and for that you again will need to go back to your dashboard
and go through there on the left side you'll see the backups got a number
right over here you just need to click on it and as you see we automatically
backup your site on daily basis and each backup will be
stored for ten days now if you need any more advanced backup options this is
where you will need to click are you'll need to click on the enable backup
service and that's how you will get a use of the advanced backup options that
we provide now all these about advanced backup
services are completely free and are included in all the plans of 10Web so
you will not be needing to pay any additional amount for this now click on
enable backup service so once you enable it this is the piece that you will land
on now in order to back your website up or you will need to click on backup now
from right over here
okay so this is where the history of all your backup month will be kept as you
see you've got the backup section the scheduling and the settings and in the
backup section you get to see when the last backup was conducted at the time of
it the size of your last backup you get to restore the any version of the
backups that you'd like and you can also download them now this is everything
connected with the backup and the backup points now let's move on to the
scheduling section just like the security service you get to schedule all
the backup service to be more automatic now you can enable it by clicking this
button and you get to choose whether you want it to be a monthly weekly daily
every 12 hours of these six hours or a real-time and as you see we give you a
suggestions right over here so we will let you know what kind of scheduling
gets best for a which type of website or which type of project so get all the
information from that over here and the next tab is the Settings tab so in the
first box you'll see include or exclude content so this is where you decide
whether you want files of your website to be backed up or the database or both
so you can figure that and hit save now you can also delete your previous
backups by simply clicking this button from right over here and everything will
disappear now you can also set your backup limitation this is where you
decide whether you want your backup points to be a hundred or 500 or a
thousand it's completely based on your preference now once you're done
configuring that you can click Save and that will be it for the backup service of 10Web
