PHP

PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor

A server-side programming language in which WordPress and most traditional websites are written. The code executes on every request and generates ready HTML.

Why it matters

Since the code executes on every request, any uploaded PHP file in a network-accessible directory becomes an immediate entry point for attackers.

What's missing without it

Without monitoring versions and directory permissions, the service becomes vulnerable to publicly documented exploits — which are scanned en masse.

When it is used

When choosing hosting, performing updates, or conducting security audits.

How we use it

Version matters: PHP 8.x is several times faster than 7.x, and unsupported versions receive no security patches.
