Elgg Hosting

Secure Elgg Hosting

Elgg has a wide variety of plugins capable of flexing and extending the application to meet your community’s needs. Since 2004, active users and independent developers have created dozens of add-on modules that allow you to incorporate message boards, social bookmarks, and privacy controls on your website, just to name a few.

As an open source solution, Elgg’s code is freely available for anyone to use or adapt. Unfortunately, this means hackers have easy access to the code too, giving them an open invitation for exploitation.
