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.

Lancaster Samms

Lancaster Samms are an estate agency based in York. They pride themselves on providing a very high standard of personal service, and on their detailed understanding of the local property market.

The brief

Lancaster Samms asked us to build them a new website on which they could showcase their services and properties. The site needed to be easy to navigate for potential buyers and sellers, while representing a trustworthy and reputable organisation. The company also wanted the website to highlight their properties in various developments around the city.

The website

We built a website which showcases the properties that Lancaster Samms have to offer in an easily navigated and attractive way.  Properties can be filtered by price, and each has its own photo album which we ensured displays properly on all screen sizes. On the home page, high quality photographs of their best properties are combined with images of iconic York locations to convey a high-quality local organisation.

The result

Lancaster Samms now have an attractive, simple-to-use and modern website where they can display properties in their best light. The site is easily navigable, and a dedicated section shows off properties in specific developments around York. Prospective buyers and clients can easily get in touch via telephone and email links, or via the dedicated contact form.
