Greetings Everyone!

In this course, you will quickly learn to implement the HTTP security headers to your WordPress website. In addition to it, you will also know how to find the author (in most cases username) of a WordPress site and how you can secure it along with disabling directory listing. We will be working with the Live website, thus will give you a real insight on how it is done.

No plugins will be used to implement the codes, only if you do not have access to the cPanel you will use a plugin to get access to the File Manager. FOr the security headers and the author we will not use any additional plugin – just a few codes on your .htaccess file and functions.php and we are ready to go. You will get an A score on securityheaders.com :

– Strict-Transport-Security
– Content-Security-Policy
– X-Frame-Options
– X-Content-Type-Options
– Referrer-Policy
– Permissions-Policy

And at the end of the course, you will know how the author’s name is exposed in a Username and how to secure it. This is a very short and to the point course, thus you can get the results in a very short time.

So let’s get started !!!
