Modern websites, like any other computer system, require frequent updates to maintain the best security. Websites that have out-of-date components quickly become vulnerable. These updates are not guaranteed to keep hackers out but you can think of it like closing and locking your front door.
Unfortunately not all of us remember to lock our doors when we are busy and have our hands full. We understand this need and include website security updates in our hosting.
Note: While we maintain the updates in a website, we do not guarantee updates are secure. We also do not check that issues were not introduced into the site with the new update.
