What is WordPress Security testing
WordPress is one of the most simplest and popular content management systems (CMS), which helps to develop and deploy websites with ease, with the least programming knowledge. Due to its simplicity, nearly half of all the websites on the web are made out of WordPress. With its growth in building the web, WordPress also became a favorite target of cybercriminals due to the greater number of attack vectors and threats present in it. The vulnerabilities are of high volume in the WordPress’ huge list of plugins, themes, and extensibility, compared to the core platform itself.
WordPress security is not just merely about risk elimination, but more a risk reduction. With proper WordPress security testing, you can pinpoint issues such as outdated vulnerabilities, nulled plugins, improper credential management, etc.
