 Follow these steps:

  • Always Use Secure Networks: Look at the address bar after logging into your personal information.
  • Use Strong Passwords: It used to be that 7 or 8 character passwords would keep your information safe. For example “SaEm” would be “sa@]-?Em92”.
  • Two-Factor Authorization: When your website has been access by different IP address are different computers, You are instantly sent a text message with a phone number you registered with to confirm if it is you.
  • Use More Than One Email Address
  • Be Cautious About Posting Your Email Address Online: Avoid posting your email address like review sites, and any message boards where spammers can easily pick up your address.

All the online business has been successful, and most of the users shared personal information like bank details, Mail id, phone numbers, etc..., So must we need website security. Hackers don’t care about if your business is large, or small. They are simply taking your all business details, and are constantly working on new ways to breach your security. If your website is insecure, they can break in. So website security is important.

Website security is important for websites that are visited by customers. Such websites typically accept visitor information for registrations and/or online sales. These days web browsers show such websites as Not Secure which can result in loss of trust and therefore potential customers.

All this needs is for the website owner to get a SSL certificate and setup the certificate on the website’s web server or web hosting account. You get them quite cheap these days. Non-business websites can even go for free SSL certificates from Let’s Encrypt.

The answer is quite simple – your website is your business. Your website visitors are your clients who give you business. and if you are not giving them a secure environment to deal in you are losing out on potential business. You site undoubtedly provides some means of communication with its visitors.

Regardless of the size of a business, web security is important. Make sure you implement strong security measures that apply to all systems.

An unprotected website is a security risk to customers, other businesses, and public/government sites. It allows for the spread and escalation of malware, attacks on other websites, and even attacks against national targets and infrastructure. In many of these attacks, hackers will try to harness the combined power of thousands of computers and sites to launch this attacks, and the attacks rarely lead directly back to the hackers.
