This actually belongs under “more automations” and the like…
Publish under low-power author, then transition to another user/role…
Not sure what else was included in this idea, but it came from concern about original author having bad pass…
If this weal author gets compromised, if all his content is shifted elsewhere upon pub…
Then this compromised author would not cost us other content (due to a compromise)
This should be a common feature we make available, and not related to Terror Shield!
In an era where digital security is not just a preference but a necessity, businesses and digital entities face an evolving array of security threats that challenge the integrity and reliability of their online presence. As a leading web agency specializing in WordPress website development, we anchor our approach on a critical principle: the reduction of attack surfaces. This philosophy is not just a technical stance but a proactive step towards robust security, performance, and reliability. Our focus on creating Static Sites through WordPress as a static site generator (SSG) embodies our commitment to offering solutions that defend against cyber threats, ensuring our clients’ projects are shielded with the highest security measures.
Why Reduced Attack Surfaces Matter
An “attack surface” refers to the total sum of points (or “attack vectors”) where an unauthorized user (the “attacker”) can try to enter data to or extract data from an environment. In the context of web development and infrastructure, a broader attack surface presents a larger target for potential attackers, thereby increasing the risk of security breaches. By minimizing these surfaces, we significantly reduce the opportunities for unauthorized access and potential exploitation.
In translating this into the realm of WordPress development, we leverage the power of static site generation to transform dynamic WordPress sites into a collection of static HTML pages. This process inherently reduces the attack surface by eliminating the server-side processing of scripts, thereby reducing potential points of entry for attacks.
The Security Benefits of Static Sites
Static sites generated by WordPress offer unparalleled security advantages that are inherently aligned with the goal of minimizing attack surfaces:
- Resistance to Common Vulnerabilities: Without the need for server-side processing, static sites are immune to SQL injection, one of the most common vulnerabilities that attackers exploit in dynamic websites.
- Simplified Management: With fewer moving parts, static sites are easier to secure and maintain, significantly reducing the likelihood of configuration errors that could lead to security breaches.
- Enhanced Performance: Static sites load faster than their dynamic counterparts, improving user experience and search engine ranking—further benefits that complement the security advantages.
