My WordPress site was recently hacked. I’ve already restored it from a clean backup and everything is running again, but I want to lock it down so this never happens twice. The priority is a solid regimen of regular security scans. I’m looking for a balanced approach: automated scanners that alert me the moment something changes, backed up by periodic hands-on reviews. During those manual audits I’d like you to run full vulnerability assessments, dig through the code for weak spots, and perform deep malware sweeps. Deliverables I expect: • Configure and document an automated scan solution with real-time or scheduled alerts sent to my email. • Run the first in-depth manual audit covering vulnerability assessment, code review, and malware detection, then share a concise findings report and remediation steps. • Provide a simple plan or checklist I can follow to keep scans and audits on schedule going forward. If we can get the initial hardening and first audit completed quickly, even better—I’d like this in place ASAP so I can focus on content instead of crises.

Around 145 words. The opener acknowledges what happened without being dramatic, then quickly moves to reassurance. That tone matches what a stressed site owner needs to hear. Ready for the next one.

Hello, I read through your requirements carefully. Since the site is already restored from a clean backup, the next critical step is making sure the same vulnerability doesn’t get exploited again. I can set up a complete security monitoring system using trusted WordPress security tools with instant email alerts for file changes, malware detection, and login activity. Along with that, I’ll perform a full manual audit covering plugin/theme vulnerabilities, core file integrity, suspicious code injections, database checks, and hidden malware traces. After the audit, I’ll provide a clear report with risks found, fixes required, and a simple ongoing checklist so your scans and reviews stay consistent. Before we start, do you know how the hack originally happened or which files were affected? Thanks
