Hacked WordPress site recovery
Take a breath. A hacked site feels overwhelming, but this is something we handle every week. We will remove the malware, find every backdoor, clean your database, harden your security, and get you off any blacklists. Methodical, thorough, and calm.
Our recovery process
A real cleanup is not just deleting infected files. We follow a methodical process that addresses the malware, the vulnerability that let it in, and the long-term protection your site needs.
We scan every file on your server and compare it against known clean versions. Injected code, obfuscated scripts, and malicious redirects are identified and removed completely — not just the symptoms, but every trace.
Hackers almost always leave hidden backdoors so they can get back in after you clean the obvious infection. We search for disguised admin accounts, hidden file uploaders, web shells, and cron job triggers that most cleanup services miss.
Malware often injects spam links, redirect scripts, and SEO poison into your WordPress database — inside posts, options, and user tables. We audit every table and remove malicious entries without touching your legitimate content.
After the cleanup, we lock down your site: updated passwords, file permission corrections, security plugin configuration, firewall rules, login attempt limits, and XML-RPC restrictions. We close every door the attacker used to get in.
If Google, Norton, McAfee, or other services flagged your site as dangerous, we submit reconsideration requests and monitor until the warnings are removed. We provide documentation of the cleanup to speed up the review process.
We deliver a full incident report explaining how the hack happened, what was compromised, and what we did to fix it. Then we set up monitoring, automated backups, and security scanning so your site stays protected going forward.
