Case Study: Client moves to WPhost to fix hacking nightmare

Step 1: Urgent migration to WPhost

The customer’s high traffic and popular website was down, and with a $300 invoice from the existing WordPress host, our experts immediately began migration and handled the entire transfer process to the safety of WPhost (we offer an urgent migration option where we’ll migrate your site overnight).

We found that the site was severely compromised with over 2,000 malicious files including injected resources from blacklisted domains, embedded iframes and known javascript malware.

Step 2: Malware Cleanup Service

We then updated all plugins on the site to their most recent version and uninstalled any plugins and themes that weren’t being used. We identified numerous unauthorised admin user accounts which we deleted while updating the remaining admin user password to something as strong as possible.

Overnight, our engineers quickly and carefully removed all malware from the infected site and ran a further Sucuri SiteCheck.

Step 3: Securing the site with HTTPS

Lastly, we installed the client’s new SSL certificate and fixed all mixed content errors. Mixed content errors like this are caused when a HTTPS website is referring to HTTP resources.

Our WordPress experts also set the all important redirect from HTTP to HTTPS – this ensures that website visitors are redirected to the site’s HTTPS version to avoid any “not secure” browser warnings.

Check out the final Sucuri SiteCheck as we handed the site over to one new happy WPhost client!
