I had some time to work on the site this week and decided to do some back end work. I&#8217;m hardly a website developer and to be completely frank I find website development and technologies frustrating at best. I did learn quite a few things while doing this and it was in the end a successful few days.<\/p>\n<p>Most importantly I improved the security of the site, I implemented some server side firewall rules which should drastically reduce the amount of attacks on the site. For fun I&#8217;ll probably end up posting some of the logs so interested parties can get a view of what a site under constant attack looks like. It&#8217;s pretty much a spaceship flying through an asteroid field. I also implemented HTTP TLS\/SSL encryption. You&#8217;ll notice now that all traffic is force re-directed to https. You may get a mix content warning and I hope to fix that soon. Its because images are being served as http rather than https and WordPress doesn&#8217;t have an easy way to correct the migration.<\/p>\n<p>Our certificate comes from\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/letsencrypt.org\/\" target=\"_blank\">Let&#8217;s Encrypt<\/a>\u00a0which is a free automated open certificate of authority. \u00a0So that is my Christmas gift to all of you this year, encrypted traffic!<\/p>\n<p>I hope to continue this site well on into the future and I hope to bring not only tutorials but more frequent blog-esqe posts of thoughts, projects or general useful tidbits that I come across during all of my research.<\/p>\n<p>Again, have a Happy Holidays, enjoy some time off with your families and see you next year!<\/p>\n<p>-hellor00t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Happy Holidays everyone!
