   Hi all,

   Just creating a setup plan for my web design business, and I realise security is a big issue, one that I know very little about.

   Here's what I currently need to do / do:
   1. What is the best way to install the database to ensure hackers don't get in there? I think I used the one-click install on all my WP sites, is there an easy way to secure the database?
   2. I back my sites up nightly to Amazon S3 using BackWPUp plugin
   3. I use CloudFront (not quite sure how it all works) to enhance security and performance.

   What is on your security/performance/other checklist before you create a WP site?
