Had a custom WP build for years, tired of it being hacked… looking at Squarespace now after seeing site No setup, and you won’t get hacked through third party plugins. Squarespace is pretty airtight, so if that's a consideration, it might be worth the switch. I mean completely losing control of the site hacked. What they offer is security – the last year we were on WP we got hacked TWICE. For example, when doing a search on Twitter for “squarespace hacked” here are some of the top results: There is certainly a belief that SquareSpace is secure in a way that those solutions are not.
#Dropbox plugin squarespace install
Lumping SquareSpace in with WordPress and Joomla seems rather odd since SquareSpace is hosted solution and the other two are software that people can install on any hosting.

The campaign, which has been running for at least four months, is able to compromise websites running a variety of content management systems, including WordPress, Joomla, and SquareSpace. One of These is Not Like the OthersĪnother part of the story did stand out to us though: To us that sounds like some rather common stuff. The resulting executable file is signed by an operating-system-trusted digital certificate that further gives the fake notifications the appearance of legitimacy. The JavaScript further checks potential marks for virtual machines and sandboxes before delivering its final payload.
#Dropbox plugin squarespace update
Another testament to the attackers’ resourcefulness: the update templates are hosted on hacked websites, while the carefully selected targets who fall for the scam download a malicious JavaScript file from DropBox. To escape detection, the attackers fingerprint potential targets to ensure, among other things, that the fake update notifications are served to a single IP address no more than once. The sub-headline hints at something possibly newsworthy, “Unusually advanced campaign infects people visiting a variety of poorly secured sites.” Nothing in the article though seems to back that up here is part of what that seems to refer to:

Today, Ars Technica has a story headlined “ Thousands of hacked websites are infecting visitors with malware“. We don’t think too highly of the current state of security journalism, so we were not surprised to see a journalist covering a situation where what seems to be the significant and newsworthy element was not the focus of their article.
