Website construction is not rocket science, why should I worry about security issues when I am using pre-built template and widgets?
Virus authors and malware-focused hackers are typically very intelligent and use extremely stealthy means to implant their content into data. Software developers with no malicious agenda may use ‘code components’ that harbour deeply embedded elements of harmful data. These components may then be subsequently used by web application developers to construct the widgets and user interface elements of tools that you ultimately use to build your website. Once activated, a widget may cause a piece of malicious data to surface upwards into the executable memory of the user who is accessing your website. Suddenly you have moved from a shiny looking clean template into live problem within an active memory portion. AVG’s Internet Security suite is there to stop that final application code processing being executed.
