To properly clean a hacked WordPress website we usually need:
- WordPress administrator access

This allows us to inspect files, remove malware and secure the installation.
Most websites are cleaned within:
12–48 hours
depending on:
- the size of the website
- the level of infection
- server configuration
Emergency cases are prioritized.
In most cases the website can remain online during the cleanup.
If maintenance mode is required for a short time, we will inform you before making any changes.
It can happen if the original vulnerability remains.
For example:
- outdated plugins or themes
- weak passwords
- compromised hosting accounts
After cleanup we also apply basic security hardening to reduce this risk.
Many clients choose the monthly security care plan to keep the website protected.
After the cleanup we verify that:
- malicious files are removed
- spam injections are deleted
- hidden backdoors are eliminated
