Website Security · Defence in depth

We block hackers at every step.

Three layers, three locked doors

Each layer watches a different door. If one lets something slip through, the next one’s already waiting. That’s how the grown-ups do it.

The same gauntlet, every time

What happens
on every visit

Visitors stroll through. Hackers hit a wall. Then another. Then another.

Every request to your site, whether it’s a real visitor or someone up to no good, goes through the same checks. Visitors stroll through. Hackers hit a wall. Then another. Then another.

Where we block them

Three overlapping layers

Every request goes through the same checks. Visitors sail through, while attackers hit wall after wall.

L1

At the gate: most attacks are stopped here, before they reach your server.

L2

At the building: if they get past the gate, the server itself is locked down.

L3

Inside WordPress: the final line. Even if they get in, the doors are locked.

Up close

The three
layers

What each one is, what it stops, and how it protects you.

01
Edge gateway

The front gate

Tool Cloudflare
Stops

Bot armies · Password guessing · Known hacking tools

A global network sits in front of your site, so every request goes through it first. The nastiest stuff never even reaches your server. Think of it as a bouncer on the door, turning trouble away before it gets near the building.

How it protects you
  • Bot armies blocked

    Huge waves of automated attack traffic get soaked up before they can knock your site over.

  • Password guessers throttled

    Anyone trying thousands of combinations gets slowed to a crawl or shown the door.

  • Standard attacks recognised

    The usual tools hackers try first, like known exploits and injection attacks, get caught at the gate.

02
Server hardening

Locks & alarms

Tool Ohmania-managed hosting
Stops

Server break-ins · Old-software exploits · Stealth attacks

Get past the gate and you reach the server, the machine your site runs on. We keep it locked down, patched and watched: deadbolts on every door and an alarm that goes off the second something looks wrong.

How it protects you
  • Locked-down server

    Only the doors that need to be open are open. Everything else is sealed shut.

  • Always patched

    Security updates go on promptly, so known weak spots never get exploited.

  • Watched 24/7

    Anything suspicious is flagged, logged and quietly dealt with in the background.

03
Application defence

Inside WordPress

Tool WP Defender
Stops

Stolen-password logins · Login bots · File tampering

If an attacker makes it all the way to WordPress itself (the bit you log in to), this layer is waiting. Think ID badges for everyone, a lock on every office and a record of exactly who opened what.

How it protects you
  • Two-factor login

    A stolen password on its own isn’t enough. A second code is always needed.

  • Hidden login URL

    Attackers can’t find your admin door, so their guessing tools bounce off thin air.

  • Tamper alerts

    If a WordPress file changes without our say-so, we know within minutes.
