Security.txt is a new proposed standard to encourage website owners to adopt a more proactive approach to security.

The practice of security is boundless, with infinite context about what constitutes danger. Today's episode looks into how you can practice security to better your resume, services, business, and life.

This week's vulnerability roundup will share details on three security bugs that were patched last month in a popular Learning plugin for WordPress.

This week's knowledge share is for developers and site owners alike. Robert will be discussing all about how open-source projects (or really any code project) can show, not just tell, their users that their project's code is secure and safe to use.

This week's vulnerability roundup will share details about three high-risk security bugs in WordPress components - of which two received patches and one went without.

The security of your web hosting provider is just as important as the security of your WordPress site. So in this episode Robert talks about how you can check for some important security features your hosting provider may or may not be offering.

This week's security news will cover two critical vulnerabilities - one that received a patch, and one that did not.

Join Robert on his second episode of new year's security resolutions - this time, he'll be running you through the checklist for ensuring the plugins on your site are safe to use.

He'll also be talking about the recent Doctor Web report about a botnet targeting specific outdated WordPress plugins - which is a great reminder to always keep all your components up-to-date!

In this episode we want to say two things: 1) Happy new year and 2) rotate your passwords!

Rotating your passwords regularly is a key security practice. We feel it's important to stress this in light of the latest news from the LastPass security breach - we now know that attackers did gain access to encrypted customer data, including password vaults.

Granted, this doesn't mean they got their hands on passwords and emails in plain text, but if you've used LastPass then it's high time to change all your passwords now.

Last week we confirmed that ChatGPT can write basic WordPress plugins - but should you let it? Does AI write safe code? Can it detect vulnerabilities?

This week's knowledge share is about a recent influx of patched security bugs affecting a single vendor. Don't panic though - the bugs are low-risk. 

The noteworthy part is the number of products affected by the same bug. Stay tuned for this weekly knowledge share where Robert explains why one vendor has multiple products affected by the same bug, and what this has to do with the software supply chain.

Recently LastPass reported a secondary security incident that occurred months after an initial break-in. We applaud their honesty and transparency in handling the matter - this is a great example of how to handle any security incident!

LastPass team's investigation concluded that this recent issue - of unexpected access to a third party service - was likely made by someone with information leaked from an incident that happened months ago in August.

So in this week's knowledge share, Robert will discuss the topic of lingering threats from old hacks.

Knowing where to look is the key to finding what you're looking for. For security bugs, it is essential.

In this week's knowledge share, Robert will teach you the basic process of finding security bugs using static code analysis - also known as SAST.
