Most hosts advertise "secure WordPress hosting." In August of last year, we published our first study into how "secure" WordPress hosting really is. It turned out 87.8% of vulnerabilities bypassed hosting defenses. Then, we followed up that study with a second edition earlier this year. We tested 18 hosting providers, and 74% of attacks went straight through. We published the full breakdown of the study: methodology, results, and which vulnerability types got through with the help of independent researchers Kevin Ohashi and Konrad Keck. In this Q&A (recorded as we were finalizing the 2nd study), Mart Virkus joins Chazz Wolcott to answer questions about the study you'll want to hear the answers to. - Why can't regular WAFs just keep adding firewall rules? - What makes WordPress-specific vulnerabilities so hard to block? - And more...
