- kyriakos 10y agoWordPress itself is not as insecure as people make it to be. Its code base gets a lot of scrutiny and security issues are fixed promptly. The problem begins when you start installing plugins... which most of them are coded by designers-turned-programmers who needed to add a new function to a client#s WordPress site. Reading their code its obvious that they are build by mix and matching tutorial and example code they googled.
