What Malware Scanning Means
Automated inspection of your site's files and database for malicious code — signatures match known malware, heuristics flag suspicious patterns, integrity checks catch unauthorized changes.
Key points:
- Where infections hide — injected files, database rows, cron jobs, widget and plugin code
- Scan cadence — daily scans catch most reinfections within a cycle
- Detection vs cleanup — scanning finds; removal quarantines and restores clean copies
- Blacklist link — Google flags infected sites; scanning prevents the 'deceptive site ahead' banner
- Prevention stack — scanning pairs with patching, WAF and backups
Scanning is the smoke detector; hardening is the fireproofing. Our security services bundle scans with cleanup, the WordPress security checklist lists the full stack, and WordPress hosting keeps the patch cadence running.

Prevention: Updates, WAF, Backups
