WordPress Management & Security
Ongoing management and security hardening built specifically for WordPress — the platform behind a huge share of the small-business web, and the one attackers target hardest because of it.
What's included
- Core, plugin, and theme updates — tested on staging before production
- Login hardening: rate limiting, MFA, and disabling XML-RPC where it isn’t needed
- Malware scanning, backdoor detection, and full clean-up after compromise
- Plugin risk audits — removing abandoned or unmaintained plugins before they’re the way in
- WAF rules tuned specifically for WordPress attack patterns
- Tested backups with verified, working restores — not just backup files nobody’s opened
- Admin account and user-role audits
- File integrity monitoring so unauthorized changes are caught immediately
WordPress runs a huge share of the small-business web, which is exactly why it’s targeted so heavily — not because it’s inherently insecure, but because an unmaintained plugin or a weak admin password is an easy, repeatable way in at scale.
We manage WordPress sites the way we’d want our own managed: core, plugins, and themes kept current and tested before they touch production; login and admin access hardened; and file integrity monitored so an unauthorized change gets caught in hours, not months.
When a site is already compromised, our clean-up process goes past the surface symptom. Malicious redirects and spam injections are usually just what’s visible — the real work is removing every backdoor, every rogue admin account, and every planted file the attacker left behind so they can’t just walk back in through the same door a week later. See our write-up on a recent ClickFix malware removal on a compromised WordPress site for what that process actually looks like.

My WordPress site is showing spam links or redirecting visitors — what do I do first?
Don’t just delete the visible symptom. Contact us for an emergency clean-up — removing one plugin or file often leaves backdoors and rogue admin accounts in place, and the site gets reinfected within days.
Do you manage WooCommerce stores too?
Yes — including PCI-DSS-relevant hardening for stores handling card data, plugin vetting for payment and checkout extensions, and uptime monitoring tuned for storefronts.
Can you take over management of a site another agency built?
Yes, this is one of our most common engagements. We start with a full security and configuration audit before taking on ongoing management, so nothing existing is inherited blind.
How do you prevent reinfection after a clean-up?
By closing the actual entry point — usually an outdated or vulnerable plugin, a weak/reused admin password, or an old theme — not just removing the malicious files, plus ongoing file integrity monitoring afterward.
