Ingrid Moyle
On the 19th March 2019, 80% of all of Ingrid’s website clients from the previous 5 years was hacked.

Ingrid will share why WordPress sites get hacked, how you know you have been hacked, and what are your options if you have been hacked.
Ingrid Moyle is the Chief Web Wizard at Heart Harmony Communications. A self-confessed multipotentialite, Ingrid shamelessly blends her passions of human resources, psychology, web design and copywriting.
