It may seem obvious, but ensuring you keep all software up to date is vital in keeping your site secure. This applies to both the server operating system and any software you may be running on your website such as a CMS or forum. When website security holes are found in software, hackers are quick to attempt to abuse them.

Okk lemme explain the ways you can protect your website. ^°_°^ 1.) KEEP YOUR SOFTWARES UP TO DATE: It may seem obvious, but ensuring you keep all software up to date is vital in keeping your site secure 2.) prevent SQL injection attack: SQL injection attacks are when an attacker uses a web form field or URL parameter to gain access to or manipulate your database.  3.) prevent Xxs(cross site scripting )attack: Cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks inject malicious JavaScript into your pages, which then runs in the browsers of your users, and can change page content, or steal information to send back to the attacker. 4.) passwords: The hacker always know that the victim is using a complex password. But is some cases (they are smart users). Always use a complex password for your website because hacker easily encrypt simple passwords. 5.)File uploads: Allowing users to upload files to your website can be a big website security risk, even if it’s simply to change their avatar. The risk is that any file uploaded however innocent it may look, could contain a script that when executed on your server completely opens up your website. I hope this will help you ^°_°^
