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.

XANDOR Automotive

Xandor Automotive is a new name in the automotive industry, formed by the unification of several well-established manufacturers around the world. Specialising in high quality plastic components, assemblies and systems, Xandor operates globally from its bases in the UK, Germany, Czech Republic and China.

The brief

Xandor needed a new website which would play an instrumental role in unifying the organisation into a single brand. Visuals were key: the site would need to be distinctive, recognisable, and something that the company’s employees could be proud of. The design would also need to be flexible enough to incorporate a wide variety of content onto a single website.

The website

The website site we built for Xandor is visually led. Vivid greyscale photography in the banner gives a striking effect while immediately communicating the organisation’s purpose. Other images – including photographs from the factory floor, technical renderings and key members of the Xandor team – further communicate the high level of quality and professionalism provided by Xandor.

A well-organised products and services catalogue provide detailed information for customers and clients, while the news section enables Xandor to communicate the latest goings-on to its global audience. We provided a set of flexible templates to accommodate additional content in a variety of formats.

To reflect the global reach of Xandor, the site currently supports 4 different languages (English, Czech, German, Chinese). More languages can be added with ease and each of the language specific sites are editable independently. This has resulted in Xandor having complete control over what content is displayed to each territory, ensuring a tailored experience for their international audience.

The result

Xandor Automotive now has a website which reflects their position as a global leader in the automotive industry. The new website is modern, visually striking, and easily accommodates the needs of different users. It’s also built to be expanded upon, with plenty of room for additional content to be added as the organisation continues to grow.
