Its very important that if your website has been designed in a Content Management System (CMS) that you up date it on a regular basis, as new security updates are released on a regular basis to avoid these kinds of exploits.
- Insecure Passwords
Its important that when creating a new database or changing the ftp details that you don't use common usernames and passwords such as "password123" or "123456" as an example. These kinds of passwords are the first ones that hackers use to try and gain access to your site.
