Why We Did It and Don’t Want Any Money
From Jason Remillard
So, if you have an RSS reader or aggregator tracking hacking/security related topics, you may have caught the release information about our free wordpress security plugin, WP-Secure by SSM.
Its not magical, its not very sophisticate, and it was easy to do. Essentially, we took the best practices of locking down a Wordpress Blog, and automated them.
We found that the majority of our clients (wordpress-related) didn’t do even the basics of system lockdown.
We designed it for simple single clicks for the changes (like renaming the admin account, protecting a few directories, etc.)
We feel its important to give your customers/users not just ‘how to’ articles - which vary widely in quality, quantity and variety. Its important to give them the tools.
