Hardened before, cleaned fast if it ever happens
Most compromises come through known vulnerabilities in out-of-date software or weak logins — both preventable. And if a site is already infected, the priority is a clean removal plus closing whatever let it in.
This is for you if:
- Google has flagged your site as deceptive or hacked.
- The site redirects visitors somewhere unexpected.
- Login is unprotected and unmonitored.
- You have no idea whether you have been compromised.
What You Actually Get
Hardening as standard, and an emergency path if you are already infected.
Hardening
Firewall rules, login protection, two-factor, file permissions and the removal of anything exposing more than it needs to.
Malware Removal
Infected files cleaned, the database checked for injected content, and the entry point closed so it does not simply return.
Blacklist Recovery
Review requests submitted to Google and the relevant vendors, with the warnings tracked until they clear.
Ongoing Scanning
Continuous malware and integrity scanning, so a reinfection is caught in hours rather than by a customer.
Other Work Under Website Care & Maintenance
Care work is either preventive or the thing you need at 2am. These cover both ends, supporting your security & malware removal setup.
Security & Malware Removal FAQs
Same day in most cases. Get in touch and say it is an active compromise — we prioritise those. First step is containment, then a clean removal, then closing the entry point.
Rarely. We work from a known-good backup where one exists and clean in place where it does not, keeping a forensic copy first so nothing is lost irreversibly.
No one honestly can. What we can do is close the route that was used, harden everything around it, and monitor continuously. On our care plans, remediation of a reinfection is included rather than billed as an emergency.
