Summary


There's more? Yes there is. Much more. Frightening amounts more but I'm fresh out of aspirin.

By now, you really ought to understand the problem with the weakest link which, contrary to popular opinion, isn't just some crummy TV show on a weekday afternoon ... not that I ever watch it and besides it's always on too early.

You should be able to grasp the vulnerabilities of and the threats against your network, from the local box to the server and thus to WordPress itself, and to weigh up your risk.

In Chapter 2, we'll get our hands dirty as we assess our machines and sites for problems and consider ways to test them against exploitation before someone else does. In some cases, the results will be shocking and, in others, less concerning. In all cases, we should remember that even a small chance of being hacked, where that chance can be reduced, is a chance too great, particularly with the next zero day just around the corner.

Don't have nightmares. Just read on.
