DDK - Die Deutschen Klassiker

The PRS Website was infiltrated - Yesterday

Please bear with us while we attempt to sort out the mess.

With our accounts lady flying to Tenerife tomorrow and the Hedingham event this Sunday - it is going to me a busy few days

Emails will still get through to us on

feel free to contact me through the Members Directory

Good luck with getting e-commerce straight again, its very painful.

Really have no time for these spineless criminals.

Thanks for the good wishes - Gregg

We are not expecting it to be easy
I really struggle in this new Electronic world - Great while it`s working but Hell when its not

OK Guys ,

WE ARE BACK ON LINE

See you at Hedingham

Well done Mike, I know how frustrating it is fighting these cockwombles

Thanks Bootsy,

The Site was originally put together by Paul and an Ex employee over two long afternoons in the Pub with a laptop
However, it always pays to stay on good terms with people and Mat came back to help Paul sort it all out on Saturday

Now, I need to go on some sort of course - to try and understand what makes these things tick

Is it possible to protect yourself from these idiots ?

Have a tested working backup at all times, and know how to restore it.
Keep your cms up to date.
Or use a professional third party to manage it.

Thanks for the advice Rob

I will certainly take it onboard

Yes, keeping your site up to date is essential.
Your site is built on the Wordpress platform with a WooCommerce plug facilitating the shop.
It also relies on multiple plug ins for various other bits of functionality e.g Yoast for SEO, Elementor for content and layout and many many others.
All ok but you need to keep the WP version and the plug ins up to date.
New versions are released usually due to a compromise / data security issues and the new versions looks to plug the vulnerability.
Hackers are relentless and automated and keeping them at arms length is getting harder and harder unfortunately.

I definitely know what all this means and was going to say the same thing.

Thanks Guys for all your information and advice
