Re: Website Hacking. I Have A Question

> Please I want to know if a static website (no CMS, no Database, no registration form, no log in form, no file upload) could be hacked and defaced. If yes. What type of malicious attack is a static website vulnerable to and how can one prevent such attack. The static website however has a contact form that sends data to a gmail account.

It really depends on what you mean by “hacked”. Your credentials for the hosting provider you use could be stolen, then the whole content of your website could be duplicated and erased.
