Nothing is unhackable!
So I was reading a post that stated that a website of theirs was hacked and had some members of the Ambassadors group state that it was impossible to hack because of the extra protections. Im here to call those individuals out whoever they are and state that they are not correct in their assumptions. I work in cyber security and will state that nothing is entirely safe no matter the protections you have. Trust me with professional experiences. There is always a vulnerability somewhere, websites included.

I read that post too and I've been checking all my sites and making sure everythings updated. There have been issues with 3 of them. 2 may have been hacked. Site support is working with me.
Gordon,
I am an Ambassador but I would never tell anyone that I know
for a fact that if a hacker is good enough they can get into
anything they try hard enough and will do it!!
Besides my nephew writes security codes LOL - my bad

True. And any home can be broken into. Caution (and common sense) are always warranted, but WA is as safe a place as any for hosting our websites.
I agree. Unfortunately, no matter how secure we set our setting and how secure the servers are, there is always a way in. Zero-day exploits are always being discovered, either by the good guys or bad ones. which is the reason for having to patch windows and linux alot.
Your right on that. NOt only do we have to worry about lone wolf hackers or small teams, but we also have to worry about the increasing attacks from nation-states. WHat Cyber Warfare does is allow nation who may not be powerful militarily and puts them on equal footing in the cyber realm. This is why you see nations investing heavily in cyber capabilities
