This month we have two great talks:

Talk 1 - ** Protect your site from plugin vulnerabilities **
By Phil Savage, Business Development Director at Ace Marketing Solutions

Plugins are the lifeblood of a WordPress site, bringing your site to life with enhanced features and capabilities. But "with great power comes great responsibility" and understanding and safeguarding your site from plugin vulnerabilities is crucial.

Phill is the Business Development Director at Ace Marketing Solutions, a hospitality software provider in Thailand. He has worked with award-winning hotel brands and is passionate about promoting website security best practices. Phill's work in website security has led him to discover vulnerabilities in various WordPress plugins and themes, including leading names such as WooCommerce and the Astra Theme, and this talk will guide you on how to understand and protect your WordPress site from plugin vulnerabilities.

Talk 2 - ** Speed up your website **
By James Hunt, WordPress CNX organiser
The speed of your website is crucial for enhancing user experience, driving conversions and SEO performance. Users expect pages to load in seconds, and delays can result in high bounce rates, lost revenue and lower ranking. In this talk, James will show you tips and tricks of how to speed up your website, answer your questions, and even do a live analysis on a meetup attendees website.
