POODLE SSL 3.0 Vulnerability and WordPress

This will be relatively painless, as the only browser that still requires it active to be functional is Internet Explorer 6. The one task that will insure that this new disclosure, and the issues discovered won’t reveal encrypted data at a massive level, is for all browsers and wordpress to stop using SSLv3 and adopt the most modern and secure protocols as quickly as possible.

Sucuri WordPress Host Firewall Clients Protected
Any wordpress site running on the Sucuri Host Firewall (CloudProxy) is already proactively protected against this vulnerability. SSLv3 has been completely disabled for anyone using our product, and connections to a wordpress protected by CloudProxy remain private and secure.

If your server or wordpress is still supporting SSLv3, and there is a concern about private data being made available in the clear, adding the Sucuri CloudProxy product will virtually patch the vulnerability.
