Orange Defence Force - our layered security framework
Every website we look after is defended by the Orange Defence Force (ODF), Orange Digital’s layered, defence-in-depth security framework. Instead of trusting a single plugin or firewall, ODF stacks five independent layers – network, server, application, detection and recovery – so a threat that slips past one layer is stopped by the next. It is the same standard we apply to every site we host and maintain.
Defence in depth, on every layer
Network
The outer filter. Blocks bad traffic – malicious requests and known-bad IP addresses – before it ever reaches your server.
Server
The locked-down server. It cannot run programs, spread to other sites, or log in without permission – and on-server scans (Wordfence CLI and maldet) catch malware that manages to land.
Application
WordPress itself. Confirms who you are with a second login step, slows password guessing, and will not hand out your user details.
