Hackers, WordPress for Windows and Mac raids haunted: We told you how to protect!

There has been a very valuable development about WordPress, one of the world’s largest website creation services. A cyber security company called C/Side found that computer pirates have started to use old WordPress versions and add -ons to use user data. More than 10,000 websites have become the toy of hackers.

Compared to C/Side’s findings, hackers target both Windows and Mac users through WordPress. The pirates, who benefit from the gaps in the old versions, send fabricated notifications about the upload of Google Chrome with the purpose of the macus purposes they have developed. Believing in this false notification, the user is at the risk of losing his individual information to hackers.

Here is the fabricated Chrome notification of hackers:

As you can see in the screen image above, fabricated notification states that users who want to continue to use Google Chrome should be updated. The user pressing the update button falls into the trap of computer pirates. In the examinations, it was found that hackers coded other separate software for Mac and Windows.

The biggest problem here is that hackers are applying this system even today. So everyone with access to the internet is at a great risk. Because a large part of the sites you enter and out today use WordPress infrastructure. When this is the case, you can be a victim. The only thing you can do to protect is not to click on any relationship you don’t know.
