SiteGround keeps taking my WordPress site offline every few days after their scanner flags fresh malicious scripts. I have already set up regular backups, cleaned the reported files each time, and had the account re-activated—yet the problem returns almost immediately. The job is to perform a deep inspection of both the file system and database, eliminate every trace of malware, and then harden the environment so SiteGround’s scanner no longer finds anything suspicious. Experience with SiteGround-specific tools (cPanel, SG-Site Scanner, server-side WAF rules) and standard WordPress security practices—manual core checks, plugin/theme audits, .htaccess tweaks, server-level permissions, and real-time monitoring—is essential. Deliverables • Full malware cleanup, confirming the current malicious scripts are gone • Written summary of what was found, how it was removed, and how the infection vector was closed • Security hardening: up-to-date core, vetted themes/plugins, firewall rules, login protection, and scheduled scans • Final report with proof the site passes SiteGround’s scan and remains accessible Acceptance: the site must stay online and malware-free through SiteGround’s next scheduled scan cycle (minimum one week) without additional interventions from their support team.

Hi, I specialise in deep WordPress malware forensics going beyond surface scans to trace backdoors in core, themes, plugins, and the database, then hardening at file, server, and application level. I’m familiar with SiteGround tools, WAF tuning, and securing sites so their scanner stays clean across cycles, with a clear written report and prevention plan. Let’s discuss in chat as I have some queries to ask regarding the project to proceed further.

Hi there, I’ve read your WordPress malware scenario on SiteGround with recurring offline status and immediate remediation needs. I’m confident I can perform a deep root-cause audit, fully clean all traces of infection, and harden the stack so SiteGround’s scanner remains clear. I’ll combine a thorough file-system and database sweep, manual core/theme/plugin audits, and targeted hardening, plus SiteGround-specific tools (SG-Site Scanner, server-side WAF rules, cPanel) to verify and lock down every path an attacker could leverage. What you’ll get: a complete malware cleanup with proof of removal, a written diagnostics-and-remediation summary, security hardening (up-to-date WordPress core, vetted themes/plugins, firewall rules, login protection, scheduled scans), and a final report demonstrating passing SiteGround’s scan and continued accessibility through the next cycle. I’ve shared an initial estimate based on your description, and once we go over a few technical, functional, and hosting-specific details, I’ll confirm the exact cost and delivery schedule. I’ll align with your maintenance window and provide a clear, collaborative plan, no guesswork, only proven steps. What specific timing window and access to the SiteGround tools (SG-Site Scanner, cPanel, SG firewall) can we count on for the remediation window to ensure zero downtime during the cleanup? Best regards, Asad
