Website security is not optional — it is a business continuity requirement. A hacked website costs you in multiple ways: customer data and trust is compromised, Google blacklists the site and removes it from search results within hours, the hosting provider suspends the account, and recovery takes days to weeks. The most common attack vectors for Indian websites are: outdated WordPress plugins with known CVEs, brute-force attacks on wp-admin with weak passwords, SQL injection through unparameterised database queries, file upload vulnerabilities that allow malicious PHP files to be uploaded, and server misconfiguration that exposes directory listings or .env files. At Chulbul Design, we perform comprehensive security audits, implement hardening measures and provide ongoing monitoring that catches intrusions before they cause damage.
Security Audit — Find Every Vulnerability Before an Attacker Does
A security audit is a systematic review of your website for every known vulnerability category. We check: outdated software (WordPress core, plugins, themes, PHP version), exposed sensitive files (.env, wp-config.php, phpinfo.php, error logs accessible via URL), weak or default admin credentials, SQL injection vulnerabilities in custom code (using parameterised queries test), XSS (Cross-Site Scripting) vulnerabilities in forms and URL parameters, CSRF vulnerabilities in state-changing operations, insecure file upload handling, directory listing enabled, missing security headers (Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, HSTS), and open redirects. We deliver a prioritised report of every vulnerability found with a CVSS severity score and specific remediation steps.
- OWASP Top 10 vulnerability check
- Exposed file and configuration check
- SQL injection and XSS testing on custom code
- Security headers audit
- Dependency vulnerability scan (CVE database)
Security Hardening — Close Every Door Attackers Use
Security hardening turns a vulnerable website into one with no easy attack surface. For WordPress websites, we implement: renaming the wp-admin URL to a custom path, enforcing strong password policy, installing Wordfence or Sucuri with brute-force protection (lockout after 5 failed attempts), restricting direct access to wp-config.php, xmlrpc.php (a common attack vector) and .htaccess, disabling PHP execution in the uploads directory (prevents uploaded PHP shells), enabling two-factor authentication for admin accounts and setting correct file permissions (644 for files, 755 for directories). For custom PHP applications, we add all missing security headers, implement CSRF tokens, sanitise all user inputs, add rate limiting to forms and APIs, and configure the WAF (Web Application Firewall) rules.
- WordPress admin URL change and brute-force protection
- xmlrpc.php disabled — major attack vector closed
- PHP execution disabled in uploads folder
- Security headers — CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options
- WAF (Web Application Firewall) configured
Malware Removal & Hack Recovery — Fast, Thorough, Permanent
If your website has been hacked — defaced, serving spam, redirecting to adult sites or blacklisted by Google — we provide emergency hack recovery. Our process: take a full backup, scan all files for malicious code using malware scanners and manual review of recently modified files, remove all backdoors (hackers leave multiple backdoors so removal must be thorough, not just surface cleanup), restore clean versions of infected core files, change all passwords (admin, FTP, hosting, database), identify the entry point to prevent re-infection, and submit a Google reconsideration request to remove the blacklisting. We have recovered websites from Google Search Console manual actions and restored organic rankings within 7-14 days.
- Complete malware scan and removal — all backdoors
- Root cause identification — prevent re-infection
- Google blacklist removal request submitted
- All credentials changed post-hack
- Post-recovery hardening to prevent recurrence
