Doesn’t my hosting provider protect my website?

It's a common misconception that hosting providers protect the websites they host. Your web host only protects the server your website is hosted on, not the website itself. Think of it like an apartment building: Property management takes responsibility for securing the building, but each tenant must lock the door to their own apartment. That said, if your website is compromised, it will likely be suspended by your host and temporarily taken offline. SiteLock can help.
