Your WordPress site is one plugin away from disaster.
WordPress attacks are automated, constant, and impersonal. Bots scan millions of sites a day for one outdated plugin. Enter your URL below and see exactly what they'd see, before they find it.
"Who do you call when it breaks?"
For most sites without a plan, the honest answer is nobody, or a support queue in another timezone that's never seen the site, reached only after it's already on fire. 561 SiteGuard flips the answer to "561 already caught it." Not a checklist item. For most owners, it's the entire point.
Four things prevent almost every WordPress disaster.
Clients rarely have all four, and never know which one they're missing until it's too late.
Core, plugins, themes, and PHP updated on a schedule. The #1 way attackers get in is a hole that was already patched somewhere else.
A real WAF in front of the site, blocking automated attacks before they ever reach WordPress.
Offsite, versioned, and tested, so if something gets through, recovery is an afternoon, not a rebuild.
A human who already knows your site and picks up when it breaks: the one nobody thinks about until 2am.
What "no plan" actually costs.
Three real outcomes we've handled, with identifying details removed and numbers and stakes untouched.
The 3,380-file wipeout
Self-hosted on a budget shared host keeping only one day of backups. WordPress, plugins, and PHP all out of date. An automated attack mass-infected the site (spam injectors, backdoors, a hidden web shell) and it went completely offline.
The host's only snapshot was taken after the infection. Recovery meant a full manual rebuild, billed hourly, plus days of downtime.
The month of silent bounces
The site looked perfectly healthy. But outbound email was routed through a former employee's deactivated account, and every message, including new lead notifications, silently failed.
A real prospect submitted a form and it vanished. Nobody knew until it was diagnosed. You can't fix a leak you can't see.
The site that stayed boring
Hosted on our Sucuri-fronted stack, daily offsite backups, core and plugins kept current. Through the same window, the industry saw a wave of WordPress attacks.
This is what "handled" looks like. It's not exciting. That's the entire value.
One plan. No tier ladder to argue about.
Either you're covered, or you're not. Not ready for monthly? Start with a one-time patch, scoped from your free scan, never quoted blind.
Everything it takes to stop answering "who fixes this?" with "nobody."
- Managed hosting + SSL, Sucuri WAF & DDoS protection
- Daily offsite backups, 30-day retention
- 24/7 uptime + security monitoring with alerts
- Core, plugin, theme & PHP updates, tested on staging first
- Malware scanning + covered cleanup & restore
- Email deliverability & anti-spoofing (SPF/DKIM/DMARC)
- Up to 2 hrs/mo of content edits included
- Monthly health & security report
Security & Patch Tune-Up
- Full security & update audit
- Everything updated, tested, not blind
- Malware scan & clean
- Proper offsite backup configured
- Plain-English report of what we fixed
A snapshot, not a shield. Clean today, but new vulnerabilities surface every week. Most Tune-Up clients move to the monthly plan within 90 days.
Get scanned firstBefore you ask.
Neither had the apparel shop in our case study, until 3am on a Tuesday. Attacks are automated and constant; "fine" means "not caught yet." The plan is what keeps it that way.
Updates are one of four legs. Without a real firewall and a tested clean backup, one bad plugin update or missed CVE is still a rebuild, and untested updates are how sites break themselves.
It's a fraction of one hacked-site rebuild, and a rounding error next to a month of silently lost leads. Zero-deductible insurance, not an expense.
When it happens, the thing you need is a clean backup from before it happened. You can't buy that retroactively. And you'll be calling us anyway; the only question is whether it's a calm Tuesday or a 2am emergency at hourly rates.
Start with the one-time Security & Patch Tune-Up. We scope it from your free Risk Check first, so you know exactly what you're paying for before you commit to anything.
The cheapest insurance you'll ever buy is never getting the 2am call.
Run the free Risk Check now to see exactly what's exposed, then decide what to do about it. No login, no obligation, no sales pitch until you ask for one.
