    Hello

    when the data is saved in the database with regards to members details… how secure it would be? any PMpro settings available by default that it is encrypted and safe…

    If, not any method that you would suggest so that the member details are safe or encrypt the data and not easily hackable??

    thanks

    Hello,

    Much of the member’s information is stored in the default user meta.
    We don’t store credit card information.

    Anything you are doing to keep your WordPress credentials secure benefits your whole site. Here are some thoughts on WordPress security. https://kinsta.com/blog/is-wordpress-secure/

    Did you have any specific information they may be concerned about?

    Hi @rakesh1974

    As @kimwhite mentioned, we do not store credit card information on the site. We do store details that WordPress has by default, such as username, email, first name, last name. We do not store passwords in our database tables.

    The short answer is, WordPress is as secure as you would like to make it. You can ensure that your admin/editor passwords are as secure as possible, and possibly consider hardening WordPress further.

    Here’s an article that explains this in more detail: https://www.wpbeginner.com/wordpress-security/
