My WordPress installation has been compromised. Visitors sometimes land on strange pages and I’m seeing unauthorized content that I never published, clear signs that malicious code or back-door scripts were injected. I need the site cleaned, all rogue files removed, and the normal pages loading again without any redirects or warnings. Please locate and eliminate every trace of the hack, restore the correct versions of core, theme, and plugins, and then harden the installation so it stays secure—firewall rules, security plugin configuration, file-permission checks, and any other best practices you recommend. Acceptance will be based on: • No more unexpected redirects or injected content • A clean scan report from a reputable malware scanner (e.g. Wordfence, Sucuri, MalCare) • Up-to-date WordPress core, theme, and plugins with documented changes • A brief hand-off summary of what was fixed and the measures put in place to prevent recurrence If you’ve done rapid malware removal and security hardening before, I’ll appreciate a swift turnaround.

Hi there, I’ve reviewed your hacked WordPress incident and I’m ready to clean it, restore clean core/theme/plugins, and harden it to prevent recurrence. I’ll deliver a fast, production-ready cleanup with a secure baseline and a clear hand-off. Approach: - Containment and cleanup: run Wordfence/Sucuri/MalCare scans; remove rogue files and backdoors; restore clean WordPress core, theme, and plugins from official sources; review admin accounts and permissions. - Verification and hardening: update to latest WordPress; re-install core, themes, and plugins; disable file editing, enable 2FA, and tighten login security; restrict wp-admin access where feasible; review database integrity. - Ongoing protection: firewall rules, security plugin configuration, file permissions (files 644, folders 755), automatic malware scans, and secure backups with versioning. - Handoff: a concise remediation report with changes and a simple security guide. A few questions to tailor delivery: - Q1: Do you want ongoing monitoring and scheduled scans post-cleanup? - Q2: Any preferred security plugin or firewall approach? - Q3: Should I ensure a detailed rollback plan and a short hardening guide? I’m ready to start immediately and deliver a clean site with a rapid turnaround. Best regards, Jordan Rafael

I can complete within 2 days after access confirmation and provide a brief hand-off summary with the recommended ongoing hardening.
