In today’s online world, security is non-negotiable. It’s not enough for your website just to exist—it has to protect your business, your customers, and your reputation. That’s why at CLDY, security isn’t an afterthought.
We build essential protections into every hosting, email, and domain package, so you don’t have to pay extra or wrestle with complicated add-ons.
We’ll show you exactly how CLDY secures your website, email and domain services, and why choosing a provider that prioritises security is one of the best business decisions you can make:
1. Web Hosting (Including WordPress Hosting): Your Website’s First Line of Defense
Your website is your digital shopfront. It’s what customers see first, and it’s a prime target for attacks. CLDY’s Australia Web Hosting and Australia WordPress Hosting are designed to keep your site secure automatically.
