Akeeba Backup ist eine Komponente zum sichern einer kompletten Joomla! Installation incl. der Datenbank und der Dateien, die aus der altbekannten und bewährten Komponente Joomlapack hervorgegangen ist. So kann eine komplette Joomla! Webseite auf Mausklick zuverlässig gesichert und wieder hergestellt werden - auf dem gleichen Server oder einem beliebigen anderen, der die Voraussetzungen für den Betrieb von Joomla! erfüllt.
Dropbox ist ein Filehosting-Dienst, der bis zu 2 GB Speicherplatz im Internet kostenlos zur Verfügung stellt. Mit Akeeba Backup Professional können Sie ein Backupprofil einrichten und diesen Speicherplatz automatisch für Backups nutzen. Der von Dropbox zur Verfügung gestellte Desktop-Client ermöglicht zudem eine einfache Verwaltung Ihrer Backup-Dateien.
Dazu zählen z.B. Web Application Firewalls (WAF), die auch kostenlos erhältlich sind und durchaus einen sinnvollen, zusätzlichen Schutz bieten können. Zumindest kann sogenannten 'Script-Kiddies' der Spass deutlich erschwert werden.
Joomla (hervorgegangen aus dem Open Source Projekt Mambo) ist ein freies Content-Management-System (CMS) zur Erstellung von Webseiten und steht unter der GNU General Public License. Es ist in der aktuellen Version 3.6.5 in PHP 5 geschrieben und verwendet MySQL als Datenbank. Zusammen mit WordPress, TYPO3 und Drupal gehört es zu den bekanntesten und meistverwendeten Open-Source-Content-Management-Systemen.

Aufgrund der Popularität und bekannter Sicherheitsprobleme werden Joomla-Installationen immer wieder zur Zielscheibe von Angriffen, insbesondere in Form sogenannter Defacements. Laut einer IBM-Studie aus dem Jahr 2008 ist die Zahl der Sicherheitslücken bei Webapplikationen allerdings generell drastisch angestiegen, so dass prinzipiell alle Systeme von diesem Problem betroffen sind. Insbesondere WordPress ist in dieser Hinsicht mindestens genauso gefährdet.
