Security and backups
Hi, some of my client's Wordpress sites had being attacked and some of them I did not have a backup of the site resulting on a big failure.
I am revising all my Perch sites and I would like to offer my clients a security-backup program. My question would be, how should I proceed?
1) update Perch and addons 2) Install backup addon (it's still available this one?)
Please let me know any advice for giving my clients a good and secure experience
Thanks
Perch Runway back-ups (database and resources) to Amazon S3 have been working well for me.
Hi Clive! Could you explain me a little more in detail how to achive that?
Thanks!
There are two aspects to this, 1) Setting up a regular back-up and 2) Cloud (S3) storage. You will also need to set-up Amazon S3 beforehand, it's not difficult but you need to find your way round their web admin control panel.
1) For back-ups via scheduled tasks, see https://docs.grabaperch.com/runway/getting-started/backup/
2) For Amazon S3, see the docs here https://docs.grabaperch.com/runway/cloud-storage/amazon/
Also, Dropbox is an option, https://docs.grabaperch.com/runway/cloud-storage/dropbox/
Thanks Clive!
I am not pretty sure about this: Does those backups are full site backups?
I just read that I need to save site files and configuration via Git or similar... This is getting complicated...
Git isn't too complicated tbh.
Whether you use Git or not, you will have a copy of the site files on your own PC/Mac and these will be backed up won't they?
Yes, you are true. Thanks Clive. — Now I have to read a bit and check if it's a big work to switch from Perch to Runaway, and then ask my client for a Backup maintenance
As I read I need to also buy a Cloudfare or similar CDN too?
You only need Cloudflare/CDN if you are using Amazon S3 to serve resources and backing up.
