If you are currently running a website under WordPress, now is the time to check your site for infections. According to reports by Sucuri, a server security firm for WordPress, "hundreds of thousands" of WordPress websites have been infected by a malware named SoakSoak, which is capable of turning innocent websites into attack platforms by infecting devices which visit them. As a result, internet browsers could prompt and warn you that a certain website is infected. Google has flagged 11,000 WordPress websites and counting, as of this writing, as malicious.
