    BackupBuddy from ithemes will backup to an FTP site. It is a premium (paid) plugin, but it works very well.

    I wonder what are good plugins to back up WP via FTP? Most examples I know so far are for backing up via Dropbox or something similar. Thanks!

    Perhaps, but why not cover all bases? We will safeguard against SQLI and XSS, but that doesn’t mean that we won’t take care of spammers and scrapers… For comprehensive protection it makes no sense to focus […]

    Yes, people should be aware of DDOS attacks.

    I’ll add DDOS to the presentation. It’s a somewhat frustratiing topic… similar to a talk about how to stop other vehicles from running into you while you’re driving.

    We’re always a bit suspicious when some company says, “We found this horrible thing. BTW, our solution takes care of it”

    IMHO, all Incapsula has done so far is release a self-serving folk tale… Chicken […]
