Learn about Joomla’s Secure system & services:

Joomla's secure system provides a robust set of tools and features to help website owners and administrators protect their Joomla websites from potential security threats.

Joomla is a content management system (CMS) that is used to build websites and online applications. Like any software, Joomla can be vulnerable to security threats if not properly secured. However, there are several steps you can take to make sure your Joomla website is secure, such as

  • Keep Joomla and its extensions up to date
  • Use strong passwords
  • Limit access and more

Here are some key features of Joomla’s Secure System,

  • Access control: Joomla has a built-in access control system that allows administrators to manage user permissions and limit access to sensitive areas of the website. This helps prevent unauthorized access and protects the website from attacks.
  • Two-factor authentication: Joomla supports two-factor authentication, which adds an extra layer of security to the login process by requiring a code generated by a separate device or app in addition to the user's password.
  • SSL support: Joomla supports SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) and HTTPS, which encrypts the connection between the website and the user's browser. This helps protect sensitive data such as login credentials and credit card information.
  • Security extensions: Joomla has a large number of security extensions available that can add additional security features such as firewalls, malware scanning, and intrusion detection.
  • Regular updates: Joomla releases regular updates to address security vulnerabilities and other issues. Keeping the website up to date with the latest version of Joomla and its extensions is an important step in maintaining website security.
  • Secure coding practices: Joomla follows secure coding practices to prevent vulnerabilities in the codebase. This includes using input validation and output filtering to prevent attacks such as SQL injection and cross-site scripting.
  • Backup and recovery: Joomla includes a backup and recovery system that allows administrators to create backups of the website and restore it in the event of a security breach or other issue.

 

 

 

The features offered make Joomla a secure platform for building and maintaining websites, but it's important to note that no system is completely secure. Regular security audits and maintenance are still necessary to ensure the continued security of the website.

There are several benefits of Joomla’s Secure System, including:

Protection against attacks: Joomla's secure system includes measures to protect against common website attacks such as SQL injection, cross-site scripting, and cross-site request forgery. This helps prevent unauthorized access and protects the website from security threats.

User authentication and access control: Joomla's access control system allows administrators to manage user permissions and limit access to sensitive areas of the website. This helps prevent unauthorized access and protects the website from attacks.

SSL support: Joomla's support for SSL and HTTPS encrypts the connection between the website and the user's browser, which helps protect sensitive data such as login credentials and credit card information.

Regular updates: Joomla releases regular updates to address security vulnerabilities and other issues. Keeping the website up to date with the latest version of Joomla and its extensions is an important step in maintaining website security.

Secure coding practices: Joomla follows secure coding practices to prevent vulnerabilities in the codebase. This helps ensure that the website is secure from the ground up.

Security extensions: Joomla has a large number of security extensions available that can add additional security features such as firewalls, malware scanning, and intrusion detection. These extensions can help further enhance the security of the website.

Backup and recovery: Joomla includes a backup and recovery system that allows administrators to create backups of the website and restore it in the event of a security breach or other issue. This helps ensure that the website can be quickly restored if necessary.

With standout responsiveness, Workiy quickly implemented all requested changes. Their flexibility extended to expanding the scope and absorbing extra costs to deliver much needed features. Customers can expect a committed partner that is dedicated to delivering on all client needs. They’re very transparent and use Teamwork. Throughout the project there were around seven change requests and Workiy handled them well. Ravi and the whole Workiy team goes above and beyond to ensure that the customer gets what they need. When we made our scope expansion request, they absorbed about $5,000 of cost since we didn’t have the funding but truly required the feature.

We have been working with Workiy for the last 18 months and have found them to be a reliable and professional supplier. Their proposed consultants are of high quality and are delivered on time as promised. The company is easy to work with and their customer service is responsive and helpful. Overall, we are satisfied with our experience working with Workiy and would recommend them to others.

Workiy has provided great service to Interior Health. Workiy was able to translate our requirements into a website that met our needs. The site has been well received by the Organization and the site owner is happy with the functionality of the Drupal platform. We continue to work closely with Workiey on enhancing the site and they have been very responsive to our requests. They’ve also been very patient as requirements change. They are an active participant in meetings where requirements are being discussed and they regularly show progress on the tasks that have been assigned.

Jonathan Hamelin

I’m the content webmaster for www.interiorhealth.ca, a website rebuilt by Workiy. I’m very satisfied with how the website operates. I had worked with WordPress before, and I love how Drupal’s back-end editing function operates in a similar way, yet overall, the platform is more sophisticated in the features you can introduce. I did not need much training to handle many aspects of the site: uploading files, editing and creating new pages, building landing pages, linking pages to the website menu, going directly into pages and inputting keywords to help their searchability, and creating/add visual blocks to pages.
