Great news! We are pleased to announce, to our translators dismay, that we have revised our popular "How to Secure WordPress" whitepaper.

The new revision takes a more hands-on approach making it easier to follow and implement. New sections have been added to cover important topics like Spam and Blog Encryption.

Check out more information at the WordPress Whitepaper HomePage.

I really liked the “hardening your wp-install” part. Great advice!

You have a small error in the whitepaper, page 4:
update wp_usermeta
–> 3 values: capabilities, user_level and autosave_draft_ids
In your whitepaper sty 2 values.

Great work and thanks!
