The new site has a much lower attack surface than the current one does.  
Since Jekyll is a static-site generator, there is no server-side code 
for visitors to attack other than the web server (Apache) itself.

The old site had a lot of PHP code, and used a MySQL database to store 
the content. All of that was more places for vulnerabilities to crop up.
