When building and hosting a website, the safety of your data and that of your users is a valid concern. 000webhost did experience a data breach in 2015, in which hackers gained access to users’ passwords, email addresses, IP addresses, and more. In response, 000webhost began using encrypted connections and email validation for client log-ins. They also upgraded to more secure software for their support forums. There have been no further data breaches since then, and 000webhost customers now report being satisfied with the company’s security.
