WordPress Security Expert – Malware Removal & Hardening
Skills Required
Description
Our WordPress site recently experienced some security issues, and we’re now looking for a highly experienced WordPress security expert to step in and help us clean things up. The main priority is to identify and remove any existing malware, backdoors, or suspicious code that may have been injected. Once the cleanup is complete, we’d like you to harden the site to prevent future attacks. This includes auditing plugins and themes, updating core files, configuring file permissions properly, and installing appropriate security tools or firewalls. We need someone who understands both the technical and strategic side of WordPress security—someone who has handled similar situations before and can walk us through the issues and recommendations clearly. Access to the hosting environment, site backups, and admin credentials can be provided upon agreement. This is a one-time task, but if things go well, we may consider long-term collaboration for ongoing maintenance and security monitoring.
