What our website security services cover
Most website compromises come from a short list of causes. Outdated plugins and themes, weak or reused passwords, abandoned admin accounts and poorly configured servers account for the majority of cases we see. Attackers use automated tools to find these weaknesses, so small business sites are targeted as often as large ones. Effective protection means removing the easy openings first, then adding controls that detect and block what remains.
We start with an assessment of your site and hosting environment. From the findings we apply updates, harden the configuration and place a firewall in front of the site. We set up backups you can restore from and monitoring that reports unusual activity. Access is reviewed so each person has only the permissions they need. The result is a documented security baseline and a plan for keeping it current as software changes.
