With our Website Security Service, your website is scanned and checked at different intervals for malware and other cybersecurity issues negatively affecting your website. These include checkpoints such as uptime, server state, as well as if your website is blacklisted.

If any issues are discovered when your website is scanned, your website will be cleaned and you will be notified with an alert along with a suggested course of action to resolve all other security issues. So not only is your website automatically protected, but you are alerted immediately for any cybersecurity threats that require attention.

The Essential plan is meant to cover the basic needs of Website Security. What this plan offers is daily scanning, plus the cleanup and removal of any malware discovered on your website.

With the Deluxe plan, you get all this, and more. With this plan, your website is placed on a CDN (Content Delivery Network), ensuring faster load times for your site’s visitors. This is because your site will load on a server that is closest to where your visitors are geographically located, rather than a single server. In addition, websites on the Deluxe plan also benefit from Web Application Firewall Protection (WAF), keeping sites safe from dangerous internet traffic.

Website Security Express is a yearly plan designed for websites that require the fastest response time and fastest repairs. This security plan also comes with the benefits of WAF malware protection and CDN performance acceleration.

Yes, it will. Even if your site is hosted with a different company, Website Security will still be compatible in the majority of cases. In addition, whether your website is built on a CMS such as WordPress, Joomla, Drupal, or is custom coded, Website Security will still provide protection as normal.

Under all plans, your website is scanned at least once a day. However, depending on your plan, you may choose to have your site scanned at 12-hour intervals, 30-minute intervals, or once daily in frequency.

Yes. While an SSL certificate does add a layer of security to your website by establishing a secure connection and protecting user data through encryption, it doesn’t protect your site against other common cybersecurity vulnerabilities. Adding a Website Security Service onto a website that has an SSL certificate is the best way to ensure your site has well-rounded cybersecurity protection. You ensure defense against malware, SQL injections and DDoS attacks – all things you don’t on your website.

During the cleanup process, Website Security will backup and retain files that are modified for a short period of time. However, for a more complete solution for website backup and data protection, please see our Website & Data Backup plans.

A WAF is a cloud-based firewall that acts as the first line of defense for the cybersecurity of your website. It helps protect your site by screening traffic and defending against threats like DDoS attacks, SQL injections, as well as other types of spam.

A CDN is network of proxy servers and data centers that are geographically distributed globally. The benefit with content delivery networks is that they allow your site to load on servers that are closest to your visitors, geographically. Because of this, your site will load faster as a result.

For example, if your website is hosted on the west coast, but someone on the east coast visits your site, it will load just as fast for that visitor on the east coast as it would for a visitor on the west coast because the site will load on a server that is closer to that visitor on the east coast.

If a website has already been compromised, or hacked, it’s not necessarily too late, but it is best to try and resolve the issue sooner rather than later. Website Security Express is going to be the best and fastest option to resolve issues for sites that have already experienced some sort of cybersecurity breach.
