Hi there!
Below, you’ll find an overview of the built-in security features designed to protect your website and your visitors:
1. WordPress Managed Updates: WordPress.com automatically updates your site to the latest version of WordPress and security patches, ensuring you’re protected against known vulnerabilities.
2. SSL Certificates: All WordPress.com sites come with a free SSL certificate, which encrypts data transmitted between your visitors and the site, safeguarding personal information and enhancing trust.
3. Spam Protection: Tools such as Akismet automatically filter out spam comments and form submissions, reducing the risk of malicious content and links on your site.
4. Daily Backups: Your site’s content is backed up daily, enabling you to restore it quickly in case of accidental deletion or other unexpected issues.
5. Secure Hosting Infrastructure: WordPress.com’s infrastructure is designed with multiple layers of firewalls, security scans, and continuous monitoring to defend against unauthorized access and DDoS attacks.
6. Malware Scanning: We regularly scan for malware and other security threats to ensure your site remains secure and uncompromised.
7. Two-Factor Authentication (2FA): Enhance login security by enabling 2FA, which requires a second form of authentication, such as a text message or authentication app, in addition to the password.
8. Jetpack Security Features: With Jetpack you get additional features such as downtime monitoring, improved backup capabilities, and automated security fixes.
For additional security, we recommend that you follow best practices such as using strong passwords, keeping your account information confidential, and regularly reviewing user access permissions on your website.

Yes, we had a carding attack. Would upgrading to an Entrepreneur Plan be able to prevent that happening again?

Upgrading to the Entrepreneur plan will not help prevent the carding attack. Ideally, the payment gateway provider that you are using should be able to detect and prevent carding attack.
The WooPayments and Stripe offer protection against carding attacks. You can learn more here: https://woocommerce.com/document/woopayments/fraud-and-disputes/fraud-prevention/
Another option would be to use an extension such as WooCommerce Anti-Fraud to help prevent such frauds: https://woocommerce.com/products/woocommerce-anti-fraud/
You can learn more about ways you can protect your store from card testing attack on this guide: https://woocommerce.com/document/woopayments/fraud-and-disputes/card-testing/
