Yes. Anyone keeping up to date knows that PHP isn't particularly different from other languages when it comes to security.

The easy way users can install WP plugins is one of its major features and also one of its drawbacks. But I'd be puffing air if I said how WP keeps up with security and performance issues associated with that.

Yeah, Laravel (and Symfony) enforces some good coding practices. It has been a good handrail to lean against when I started with PHP.

I'm curious what you went with instead of WP in your business, if I may ask?

We didn't really use WP for much more than a blog, carousel and contact form. These are easily implemented by a number of low-code/no-code solutions like WebFlow and Wix. In general, we're seeing a trend of static sites moving to these sites as well as HubSpot and I'm supportive of this effort since I prefer servers I don't have to manage :)
