Why teams call us
WordPress powering marketing and commerce can’t afford brittle security. We address the risks that slow launches and damage trust.
Plugin sprawl & stale dependencies
Disable or replace risky plugins, implement composer/npm management, and introduce staging-before-production roll outs.
Weak admin hygiene
Enforce MFA, granular roles, and SSO integration so marketing and engineering collaborate safely.
Infrastructure blind spots
Harden hosting, CDN, and WAF settings while adding logging, alerts, and incident runbooks for future events.
Hardening playbook
A proven sprint structure that locks down WordPress without grinding campaigns to a halt.
Phase 1
Assess & prioritise
Baseline vulnerability scans, review of users/roles, hosting configs, and plugin inventory. We rank risks against business impact.
Phase 2
Implement safeguards
Introduce staging workflows, patch and replace plugins, harden wp-config.php, add WAF rules, and lock down uploads & file perms.
Phase 3
Automate & monitor
Set up auto-updates with testing gates, deploy uptime/security monitors, and hand off dashboards plus runbooks to your team.

Frequently asked
Confidence matters. Here’s how we integrate with your teams without slowing delivery.
Can you work alongside our agency?
Yes. We partner with internal developers and agencies to implement governance, provide documentation, and avoid disrupting content schedules.
Do we need staging and version control?
We strongly recommend it. We help set up Git-based deployments, staging environments, and rollback plans if you don’t already have them.
How do you ensure updates don’t break the site?
We create update windows, add automated smoke tests, and document manual QA steps. Rollbacks are rehearsed so changes feel safe.
