We are urging all our customers running versions of Joomla lower than version 2.5.x to migrate as soon as possible as there has been a noticeable increase in the number of sites compromised, especially since support expired for the 1.5 branch in December 2012.

Many users have not migrated to version 2.5 or later as the task is not trivial but we would urge you to start the process before something nasty happens. Tools such as Jupgrade will make the process easier but you will likely still need some development skill to finish the task and some of your favourite plugins may need to be replaced if they are no longer supported.

Joomla versions below 2.5 are no longer secure and by running these version you will be putting your website’s reputation and your visitors’ computers at risk if you continue using this version. If you would like a quote to upgrade your site, please contact us on 03 9815 6868. We have a team of experienced and reliable developers who will be able to assist you with your migration needs.
