Website Security
We’ve recently seen a dramatic increase in the number of sites hacked, particularly those running on the WordPress platform. This is a major concern for site owners as it often happens at the worst possible time. THINQ makes every effort to build to the highest standards and security measured possible when we create your site, however, software insecurities that are constantly mined by those that wish to attack sites are a fact of life in this day and age.
After searching far and testing many services, THINQ recommends Sucuri as their trusted partner for securing sites. Although there are other services out there, many bundled within your hosting platform, Sucuri offers the best end to end solution from firewall protection, malware scanning, and remediation that we have seen. Their customer service is top notch.
At this time, in the current client, we recommend all clients put in place some form of advanced security to protect their sites.
Sucuri offers two tiers of their service:
- Firewall for attack prevention
- Antivirus – Scanning and Remediation (includes Firewall as well)
Both are outstanding but our recommendation for the most peace of mind, fool proof solution is the Antivirus Solution which includes the firewall as well.
If you choose to implement internet security on your site and select the banner below, we’ll install either system (firewall or antivirusO on your site, free of charge. You can still contact us for help but you’ll also have direct access to security professionals as well for any questions or concerns. We’ll just need your username and password once you set up your sucuri account and we’ll take care of the rest.
