Security Audits & Website Recovery

Secure your WordPress site. Or get it back.

Two situations bring people to this page: you handle data worth protecting and want to know your site is safe, or you've already been hacked and need it fixed now. We do both - thorough security audits for the first group, rapid recovery with minimal downtime for the second.

What you get

What you get when you work with us

01 Recovery

Emergencies handled fast.

Locked out, defaced, or serving malware to your visitors? We recover hacked WordPress sites quickly - malware removal, file and database repair, credential resets - with downtime measured in hours where possible, not weeks.

02 Root cause

The hole gets closed, not just patched.

Cleaning a hacked site without finding how the attacker got in is an invitation to do it again. Every recovery includes a vulnerability assessment that identifies the cause and fixes it.

03 Prevention

Hardened against the attacks that actually happen.

SQL injection, XSS and CSRF, brute-force logins, file inclusion, session hijacking, insecure APIs - we audit for the full catalog of common WordPress attack vectors and lock each one down.

04 Compliance

Compliance you can show, not just claim.

If GDPR, HIPAA, or PCI applies to your business, a documented security posture is part of the requirement. Our audits give you the paper trail along with the protection.

How it works

Prevention for the careful. Recovery for the unlucky.

Audit & hardening

For sites that are still healthy and intend to stay that way - a full vulnerability scan followed by systematic lockdown.

  • Vulnerability scan covering input sanitization, XSS/CSRF, file inclusion, data exposure, and API security.
  • Brute-force protection, login limits, firewall configuration, and SSL and server settings checks.
  • Strong password policies and privilege review across all admin accounts.

Recovery

For sites that have already been compromised - cleanup, restoration, and the follow-up that keeps it from recurring.

  • Malware removal, backdoor cleanup, and repair of core files, plugins, themes, and database.
  • Restore from clean backup where available, full credential reset across accounts.
  • Breach-cause analysis, security hardening, and post-recovery monitoring for recurring threats.
Why Coditive

We know where WordPress breaks, because we build it.

After 15+ years of building WordPress themes, plugins, and applications, we know the codebase from the inside - including the corners where vulnerabilities hide. That matters most in regulated industries: finance, healthcare, e-commerce, education, legal, and anywhere customer data is the business.

01

Developers doing security work - we read and fix the code, not just run a scanner over it.

02

Recovery experience across hacked sites of every flavor: malware, defacement, SEO spam, locked-out admins.

03

Industry best practices for data protection on every engagement, with documentation to match.

04

White-label available: agencies bring us compromised client sites under NDA, quietly.

Client feedback

Trusted with sites that can't afford downtime.

E-commerce platforms, agencies, and businesses where the website is the revenue - they stay with us because things keep working.

My site is hacked right now. What should I do? +

Contact us with your URL and hosting details - emergencies get priority. Until we respond: don't delete anything (evidence of the breach helps us close the hole), and if you still have admin access, change your passwords. We'll take it from there.

Will I lose my content or data during recovery? +

Almost never. We repair files and clean the database rather than wiping them, and restore from backup only when it's the safer path - after checking the backup is actually clean. Whatever can be saved, we save.

How do WordPress sites usually get hacked? +

The boring way: outdated plugins and themes with known vulnerabilities, weak or reused passwords, and occasionally a compromised hosting account. Targeted attacks are rare; automated scans for unpatched sites are constant. This is why updates and strong credentials prevent most incidents.

What does the security audit cover? +

The common WordPress attack vectors: SQL injection, XSS and CSRF, file inclusion, sensitive data exposure, brute-force and session protection, API security, malware scanning, SSL and server configuration, and password and privilege policies. You get a findings report plus the hardening to go with it.

Do I need ongoing monitoring after the audit or recovery? +

We recommend it, especially after a breach - attackers retry. Post-recovery monitoring and a maintenance package with regular updates close the two most common re-entry points. But it's a recommendation, not a forced subscription.

We're in a regulated industry. Can you help with compliance? +

Yes - we work with businesses subject to GDPR, HIPAA, and PCI requirements. We implement the technical controls and provide the documentation; your compliance officer or counsel maps it to the regulation.

How does pricing work? +

Audits are fixed price. Recoveries get an estimate after a quick initial assessment - urgent cases start immediately. Payments in USD, EUR, or PLN.
