Care PlansPrevention beats recovery

The cheapest hack to fix is the one that never happens.

Emergency cleanup is stressful and costly. Ongoing protection isn’t. We run a managed firewall, daily malware scanning, login hardening, and continuous monitoring so threats are blocked or caught early — long before they become a defaced homepage or a Google blacklist.

typical cost to clean a hacked site — versus a fraction of that to prevent it

Plugins like Wordfence and Sucuri are tools. Protection is a service with a human watching.

A firewall plugin sitting in your dashboard helps — until it’s misconfigured, out of date, or quietly disabled by another plugin. Real protection means someone configures the firewall properly, reviews the scan results, hardens the login, and acts on the alerts. We do that continuously, so the odds of ever needing emergency recovery drop dramatically.

Protection plans

Layered defense, monitored by people.

Every plan starts with a free security scan. Prices are starting points; we confirm after we see your site’s risk profile.

Shield

from $59/mo

Brochure / small business

Managed firewall (WAF) configuration
Daily malware scanning + alerts
Login hardening + 2FA setup
Daily off-site backups

Block, watch, harden, restore.

Defense in layers — so no single failure becomes a breach.

Block at the edge

A properly configured web application firewall stops malicious traffic, bots, and brute-force attempts before they reach WordPress at all.

Scan & watch

Daily (or real-time) malware scanning plus file-integrity monitoring means unexpected changes are caught fast — and a human reviews the alerts, not just a dashboard.

Harden the basics

Login protection, 2FA, disabled file editing, least-privilege users, and the small server-level tweaks attackers count on you skipping.

Backup & restore

Daily off-site backups mean that even in a worst case, we restore a clean copy quickly. Covered clients get cleanup included if something slips through.

Prevention vs. recovery

The economics are not close.

Illustrative comparison of ongoing protection against a single emergency cleanup. Your costs depend on site complexity and incident severity.

FAQ — Security & Malware

What people ask before getting protected.

I already have Wordfence. Why pay for this?

A security plugin only helps if it’s configured correctly, kept current, and someone acts on its alerts. We’ve seen plenty of sites with Wordfence installed and still hacked because no one read the warnings. We own the configuration and the response — the plugin is just one tool in the stack.

What if I get hacked while I’m a client?

On our Guard and Fortress tiers, cleanup is included if a breach happens while you’re covered — that’s the whole point of prevention with a safety net. We’ll clean it, find the entry point, and harden it, at no additional incident charge.

My site is hacked right now. Is this the right service?

If you’re actively breached, start with Emergency Hacked-Site Recovery — that’s built for active incidents with a sub-hour response. Once you’re clean, move onto a protection plan here so it doesn’t happen again. Many clients do exactly that.

Does this slow my site down?

Configured well, no. A cloud firewall actually filters bad traffic before it hits your server, which can reduce load. We tune scanning to run off-peak and avoid the heavy, poorly-configured setups that do drag performance — and we can pair it with speed engineering if needed.

Can I combine this with maintenance?

Yes — security and maintenance are natural partners, since outdated software is the most common entry point. Most clients run both together, and bundling them is more cost-effective than buying each separately.
