Security Hardening
I close the openings automated attacks actually use: outdated plugins, weak logins, loose permissions, and backups nobody tested. You get a hardened site, working alerts, and a restore path that’s been proven, not assumed.

Work delivered for, or alongside, teams at:
What it costs
Everything below is included, applied in phases so nothing breaks on production. You can watch the restore test succeed with your own eyes.
Already infected? Cleanup is scoped separately, then hardening follows so it doesn’t repeat.
All prices include GST.
How this runs
I map the weak points across plugins, user accounts, file permissions, and server configuration. Facts first, so nothing gets hardened on a hunch.
You leave with: a ranked risk map.
Controls go in ranked by breach risk, not by what sounds scariest. Risky components get removed, access gets tightened, and everything is applied in phases with testing between.
You leave with: the easy entry points closed.
I restore a backup for real, confirm the firewall and scans actually fire, and re-check permissions after every change. Untested protection is just decoration.
You leave with: a backup proven to restore.
You get an alerting workflow and a plain-language incident runbook, so a bad day means executing known steps instead of panicking in a group chat.
You leave with: a plan for the worst morning.
I start from how sites actually get breached: neglected basics, not genius attackers. An abandoned plugin and a reused password do more damage than any zero-day you’ll ever face.
I refuse to solve this by installing a heavy security plugin and calling it done. Most of the real work is configuration, cleanup, and access control, which adds no weight to your site.
And I always test the restore. A backup that’s never been restored isn’t a backup, it’s hope on a schedule.

₹20,000 fixed for one site, and the price includes GST. That covers the plugin and access audit, permission lockdown, firewall and scanning setup, a verified backup restore test, and an incident runbook for your team.
Through known, preventable weaknesses: outdated plugins and themes, weak or reused passwords, no brute-force protection, and loose file permissions. The attacks are mostly automated bots scanning every site for the same openings, which is exactly what hardening closes.
No. Hardening is mostly configuration, cleanup, and access control, not heavy processing. I deliberately avoid bloated security plugins that drag performance and work at the server and application level instead.
No, and nobody honest can. What hardening does is make you expensive to attack instead of free, and make recovery fast if something ever gets through: tested backups, alerts, and a runbook. That combination is the realistic guarantee.
The hardening itself is one-time. But software needs patching and threats keep evolving, so the protection decays without upkeep. Pair it with a maintenance plan, from ₹30,000 per year, if nobody on your team owns updates.
About me
Everything I would put on your site is running on mine first.
Care clients get the same stack I trust with my own traffic: GT Performance, Cloudflare, Redis, Hetzner.
I was a teacher before I was a developer. I taught mathematics to competitive-exam students, which is why I explain hard things plainly instead of hiding behind jargon.
What I am actually good at is the join: technical SEO, fast front-ends, and content treated as one system instead of three vendors blaming each other.
Describe the site, the stack, and any scares so far. I’ll reply with the risks I’d close first and a start date.
