Website security, so a bad day doesn't become a bad month.
Most independent business sites aren't attacked by someone targeting them specifically — they're caught in automated sweeps looking for exactly the kind of unguarded door most small sites leave open. A free scan tells you, in plain English, whether yours is one of them.
It's rarely just "the website."
A compromised site isn't just an inconvenience to fix later — it costs the two things a small business can least spare: money coming in, and time you don't get back.
Locked out of your own site
A hacked login or CMS can hand control to someone else entirely — sometimes with the ransom note to prove it. Getting back in can take days, and every one of them is a day you can't take bookings, process orders, or even show customers your opening hours.
Flagged and blacklisted
Malware on your site gets it flagged with a red warning screen in Google and in Chrome itself. Visitors bounce before they even see your homepage, and recovering the search ranking you had — even after the site's clean again — routinely takes months, not days.
Customer data exposed
A breach involving customer names, emails or payment details is a legal matter, not just an embarrassing one — mandatory disclosure, regulatory exposure, and a level of customer trust that doesn't come back with an apology email.
The real cost is time, not money
Prevention is a fixed, known cost. Cleaning up a site that's already compromised — finding how they got in, removing hidden malware, rebuilding your standing with Google — routinely costs more in hours than years of monitoring would have, on top of the business lost while it's sorted.
Free Security & Header Scan Report
A plain-English check of your site's basic security hardening — what's already solid, what's exposed, and what a fix would cost. No obligation to book anything afterwards.
Security headers & SSL hardening
CSP, HSTS, forced HTTPS and the other header-level protections most sites are missing by default.
Login hardening
Two-factor authentication enforced, plus a proper password policy on every account with access.
Backup & recovery setup
Automated backups with a tested restore — so "locked out" is a minor delay, not a rebuild from scratch.
Firewall / WAF setup
Basic firewall rules and rate limiting to block the automated attacks most small sites never even see coming.
Form spam & bot protection
Stops bot-submitted spam and abuse on contact and booking forms before it reaches your inbox.
Security Monitoring — Basic
Uptime, SSL-certificate expiry, and security-header monitoring, with an automated monthly re-scan.
Security Monitoring — Full
Everything in Basic, plus malware & blacklist monitoring, a quarterly manual review, and priority response if anything is flagged.
What this is, and what it isn't: hardening and monitoring using trustworthy free and low-cost tools — not penetration testing, a compliance audit (PCI-DSS, ISO 27001), or a certified security assessment.
