Security Guide
A practical baseline for protecting your account, your hosted applications, and the server-side surfaces attackers commonly target.
Essential Checklist
These are the core controls worth enabling early, before the site becomes harder to recover under pressure.
Enable two-factor authentication
Protect your Kloudboy account with a second verification step before admin access is granted.
Install SSL certificates
Serve every site over HTTPS and keep certificate status healthy with Kloudboy's SSL tooling.
Run regular backups
Keep restore points available before updates, content changes, and incident response work.
Security Focus Areas
The right priorities depend on whether risk is coming from the CMS layer, application code, or the server itself.
WordPress security
Reduce common CMS risk with update discipline, stronger admin controls, and safer plugin practices.
Keep plugins and themes updated
Use strong admin passwords and limited roles
Restrict login abuse and review plugins regularly
Have a cleanup plan for hacked-site recovery
Server security
Protect the underlying system with safer access methods, updates, permissions, and monitoring.
Use SFTP instead of plain FTP
Keep PHP and packages updated
Review file permissions and writable paths
Watch logs for suspicious behavior and errors
