Security update: Your website is being protected

On 21 October, critical security vulnerabilities affecting PHP, the technology behind WordPress and many other websites, required urgent action across the hosting industry.

Castlegate IT worked closely with our hosting providers to prepare for the necessary security updates. Importantly, our hosting partners and Cloudflare implemented additional firewall protections before the security patches were released, helping to protect websites against attempts to exploit these vulnerabilities.

The necessary patches have now been applied across our main managed hosting environments. A small number of legacy environments remain protected by additional firewall measures while their updates are completed.

No action is required from our clients. We continue to monitor the situation and manage the necessary security measures on their behalf.

Stables Yoga

York yoga center Stables Yoga teach a range of disciplines including pilates, mindful birthing and, of course, yoga in a light and peaceful studio environment. They approached us with a view to having a new website designed to suit their busy client base and grow their business.

Given the need of many customers to check class timetables, class information, contact details and directions whilst on the go using mobile devices, making the Stables Yoga website responsive was a high priority. Our responsive design for the site ensures that key details and features are accessible to users browsing using a range of devices and window/screen sizes.

Another key concern in this project was the creation of a bespoke WordPress CMS allowing content updates. We added advanced custom fields for the reliable administration of mobile friendly class timetable entries.
