All five of my WordPress sites have been hit by Malware, so I need an experienced security specialist to step in quickly, clean every trace of the infection, and then lock the doors so it does not come back. Once the sites are healthy, I also want an effective CAPTCHA added to every public-facing form (contact, comments, log-in, registration) to cut automated abuse before it starts. Here is what success looks like for me: • Complete removal of all Malware and any related malware, verified by reputable scanners. • Restoration of full functionality without breaking themes, plugins, or custom code. • Hardening measures in place—updated core, plugins, and themes; secure file permissions; firewall rules; daily automated backups; and real-time monitoring (Wordfence, Sucuri, or a comparable tool). • CAPTCHA active across the sites, tested and working smoothly on both desktop and mobile. • A concise post-cleanup report summarizing what was found, what was fixed, and clear instructions for future maintenance. You should already be comfortable working directly in WordPress, cPanel/SSH, and typical security suites, and able to start right away.

Hi, I'm Anmol, a Full Stack Developer with 5+ years of experience managing WordPress servers, website security, and malware cleanup. I've dealt with hacked WordPress sites multiple times, including malware infections, injected files, backdoors, spam redirects, and compromised plugins. My goal isn't just to remove the malware—it's to find how it got in and make sure it doesn't happen again. Here's how I'll handle your sites: * Complete malware scan and cleanup on all 5 websites * Remove malicious files, backdoors, and infected database entries * Update WordPress, themes, and plugins safely * Secure file permissions and harden the installations * Configure Wordfence or Sucuri with real-time protection * Set up daily backups * Add and test CAPTCHA on all public forms * Perform a final security audit and provide a cleanup report Recent projects: [login to view URL] [login to view URL] [login to view URL] [login to view URL] Estimated timeline: 2–3 days. I can start immediately and work directly through cPanel, SSH, or WordPress admin. Before finishing, I'll verify that each site is clean, fully functional, and protected against common attack vectors. Thanks, Anmol

Hi, I hope you're doing well! I'd be glad to help clean and secure all five of your WordPress sites right away. Here's my approach: Full malware removal verified by Sucuri or Wordfence. Site hardening including file permissions, firewall rules, and plugin updates. Daily automated backups with real-time monitoring enabled. CAPTCHA added to all public forms, tested on desktop and mobile. You'll receive a clear post-cleanup report covering what was found and how to stay protected going forward. A few questions to get started: 1. Do any of the five sites show visible symptoms like redirects or warnings, or is the infection mostly hidden? 2. Do you have cPanel or SSH access ready to share, or will that need to be arranged? 3. Is there a priority order for the sites, or should all five be treated simultaneously? Ready to jump in immediately. Azeem Amin

Hi there, Since all five WordPress sites are infected, the priority is to completely remove the malware, identify the entry point, and secure each site so the infection doesn't return. I'll clean every site, verify them with trusted security scanners, implement Wordfence/Sucuri, update WordPress, themes, and plugins, configure CAPTCHA on all public forms, and harden security with backups, firewall rules, and proper file permissions. I've handled WordPress malware removal, cPanel/SSH, security hardening, CAPTCHA integration, and website recovery while preserving themes, plugins, and custom functionality. I'd assume you have cPanel/SSH and WordPress admin access for all five sites, but let me know if any site has limited access. I can start immediately and provide a detailed cleanup report once all sites are secured and fully tested.

Hello, Five infected sites usually means the priority is not just cleaning the malware, but finding the common entry point so the infection doesn't immediately return after cleanup. My process would be: • Scan all 5 sites for malware, backdoors, malicious redirects, injected database content, and rogue admin accounts • Identify the source of compromise (outdated plugin/theme, vulnerable code, hosting-level issue, shared account infection, etc.) • Remove malicious files and database injections • Verify each site with multiple malware scanners • Update WordPress core, plugins, and themes safely • Harden file permissions and security settings • Configure firewall protection and ongoing monitoring • Set up automated backups • Add and test CAPTCHA on contact forms, login, registration, and comment forms • Verify functionality of themes, plugins, forms, and user accounts after cleanup Because all five sites were affected, I would also review the hosting environment and account structure to determine whether the infection spread across sites through a shared account or vulnerable component. Deliverables: • Malware-free websites • Root-cause analysis • Security hardening and monitoring setup • CAPTCHA protection across public-facing forms • Post-cleanup report with findings and recommendations One question: Are all five sites hosted under the same cPanel/account, or are they on separate hosting accounts? That detail often helps pinpoint how the malware spread. Ali Asif

Five infected WordPress sites need immediate cleanup and hardening, and you want CAPTCHA on every form when the dust settles. I can handle that end to end, starting with a full forensic sweep of each site, then cleaning the infections, verifying with scanners, and locking everything down. For hardening, Ill update all core files, plugins, and themes, set secure file permissions, configure a firewall, install Wordfence or Sucuri for real-time monitoring, and set up daily automated backups. For the CAPTCHA, I usually go with a lightweight plugin that works cleanly on mobile and desktop without slowing the sites down. I can start right away and will provide unlimited revisions until you're completely satisfied. Best Regards, Azad
