Keep Your Wordpress Website Safe and Secure With Simple, Practical Techniques that Anyone Can Implement.
Every hour of every day 30,000 Wordpress sites are being attacked by people who want to either damage those sites or take control of them.
And the worse part is... 99% of all Wordpress Security incidents are entirely preventable.
How do you keep your Wordpress site secure?
In this course, I'll teach you the most effective things you can do to keep out the bad guys without having to become some kind of a security guru or spend tons of money for someone to do it for you.
If you're like most Wordpress website owners, security is a complete mystery. You want to keep your site secure, but your primary focus is on creating great content for your visitors.
You probably also have seen and read reports about internet security breaches that occur, but you probably think that your site is too small to have a serious problem.
The truth is, you couldn't be more wrong!
Wordpress powers just over 20% of all websites on the internet today and staggeringly, 70% of those site, 140m sites, have exposures that could make it easy for an unscrupulous individual to hack their site.
Modern security attacks aren't confined to defacing websites and stealing information, sophisticated groups of professional hackers are actively building up networks of millions of compromised websites. They collect these sites to use as large scale attacks and cause serious damage.
And if you're site is compromised, it could be contributing to this problem!
Having your site compromised could result in:
- Loss of income
- Damage to your reputation
- Stolen data or information
That's not even considering the cost and effort required to clean up a security problem.
Wordpress Security doesn't have to be that hard. With just some simple understanding of the risks and steps that you can take to mitigate them, you can prevent over 99% of all potential attacks.
This course will help you put those numbers in your favour!
I am going to share with you my 10+ years of hard earned, battle tested experience in managing Wordpress sites so that you can start making your websites more secure in minutes right away.
But Wordpress and security in general are a moving feast and it is very hard to keep up to date on everything that's happening.
And that's something that I'm going to solve for you by regularly updating this course with new videos. As changes happen in the Wordpress landscape or something big occurs in the security world, I'll break it down for you in simple and easy to understand ways.

Hi, my name is Sean Kaye and I have the luxury of solving varied and complicated problems using technology for a living.
Ever since I can remember, I've been fascinated by the way technology evolves to more efficiently and effectively help people get things done.
For the last 20 years of my career, I've worked with large companies to apply leading edge technology to deliver results and to help them achieve their desired business goals and outcomes.
I've been involved with every major wave of technology since the early 90's working with companies to connect to the internet for the first time, designing early web-enabled ecommerce platforms through to cloud computing and hybrid IT over the last ten years especially.
During that time, I've worked with the technology of every major platform and vendor in the public and private cloud space such as: VMWare, Google, Microsoft and Amazon.
In my spare time over the past decade, I setup and run a few of online marketing services businesses with my wife. This area has expanded my mind and skillset into things like SEO, Copywriting and Content Marketing. In particular, I've been able to combine these online marketing skills with my technology and management experience to help people setup and operate their own online businesses successfully.
I'm originally from Toronto, Canada but have been living in Sydney, Australia for the past 21 years with my wife and son.
Udemy has been a great experience for me having taught over 70,000 students since starting back in 2013 and I look forward to helping you achieve your ambitions and dreams.
