Core Maintenance

Website Malware Cleanup & Security Monitoring

A hacked site costs you traffic, trust, and sometimes a Google blocklist warning every hour it stays infected. We find the infection, remove it, close the entry point, and set up monitoring so it does not happen again unnoticed.

  • Same-day response for active infections
  • Entry point closed, not just symptoms removed
  • Blocklist removal request included
Signs of Trouble

How to Tell Your Site Is Infected

Google Chrome or Search Console shows a "site may be hacked" warning

Cleanup Process

How an Infected Site Gets Fixed

01

Scan & Diagnose

We scan every file and database table to find the infection and identify how it got in.

02

Remove & Restore

Infected files are cleaned or replaced with known-good versions; a clean backup is used where needed.

03

Close the Entry Point

The outdated plugin, weak password, or misconfiguration that let the attacker in gets fixed, not just the symptom.

04

Monitor Going Forward

Firewall rules and ongoing malware scanning are put in place so a repeat infection is caught immediately.

Ongoing Monitoring

What Continues After Cleanup

Malware Scanning

Regular scans to catch reinfection early, not months later.

Firewall Rules

Blocking known malicious traffic patterns and brute-force login attempts.

Blocklist Monitoring

Checking whether Google, browsers, or email providers have flagged the domain.

Update Discipline

Keeping the plugin or component that was the entry point patched going forward.

FAQ

Malware Cleanup Questions

How fast can you clean an infected site?

Active infections are treated as emergencies — see Emergency Website Support. Most cleanups begin the same day the task is submitted.

Will you tell me how the attacker got in?

Yes — the cleanup summary identifies the entry point where it can be determined, and what was done to close it.

Do you help get my site removed from Google's blocklist?

Yes, requesting a review through Google Search Console is part of the cleanup once the site is confirmed clean.

Can this happen again after cleanup?

Cleanup closes the specific entry point found, but no cleanup guarantees a site can never be compromised again, especially if other software is left unmaintained. Ongoing monitoring under a maintenance plan substantially reduces that risk.

Think Your Site Might Be Hacked?

Submit a task and mark it Emergency — we will confirm and start cleanup the same day.
