Modern website security involves encryption, monitoring, fixing, testing, backups, a disaster recovery plan, and standards compliance.
SSL Certificate (HTTPS)
Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) is an Internet communications protocol that helps protect data transfers between websites and browsers. Without SSL, the passwords or credit card numbers you use for online purchases would be transferred over the Internet in plain text, where they could easily be viewed if intercepted. The protocol renders a URL as HTTPS in the address bar of your browser. We'll work with you to decide which SSL certificate you need, then install it and update your website to meet the requirements. See our article for more information, To Be Secure or Not Be Secure: Do You Need SSL and HTTPS?
Website Scanning
We can scan your website for visible and invisible hacks. There are multiple levels of scanning technologies to check whether your website has been infiltrated in some way.
Security Monitoring
Monitoring is an ongoing process where we check not only for intrusions, but possible hacking attempts and how this affects performance of your website and database. This not only gives additional peace of mind, but allows for a proactive approach to solve problems early.
Malware Removal
If malware is detected, we can remove it, so that hackers don't affect the reputation of your website. In most cases, malware can be easily removed. Advanced malware may require websites be rebuilt from scratch, which we also have experience with.
Hack Recovery
If your website does get hacked, we have experience in recovering from hacks. This may involve restoring from a backup, cleaning hacked files, or rebuilding from scratch, depending on the situation.
Backups & Disaster Recovery
Regular backups are the best and quickest way to restore your website after a hack or crash. We recommend clients create a disaster recovery plan, which assigns actions, roles, and responsibilities to get your website back online as quickly as possible.
