WordPress Malware Audit & Cleanup

Job ID: 40437961

Budget: $10 – $30 USD

My WordPress site has started showing unauthorised content and obvious spam, so I need a thorough malware scan and complete cleanup. I am not certain which—if any—security plugins are active right now, therefore the job begins with a quick audit of the current setup.

Once every malicious file, script or database entry is removed, please track down how the infection entered the site and close that door. I would also appreciate clear, practical recommendations for security plugins and any configuration tweaks that will keep the site hardened going forward.

Deliverables:
• Full site-wide malware scan, identification and safe removal
• Report outlining the infection’s source and the actions you took
• Post-cleanup hardening (core, themes, plugins, file permissions, .htaccess, wp-config)
• A short list of suggested security plugins with reasons for each choice and guidance on setup

The site must remain online throughout the process; schedule any unavoidable downtime with me in advance.
