SiteLock is a very impressive website security provider that performs daily scans of a website to identify vulnerabilities and protect against threats like malware, cross-site scripting, SQL injection, etc. What’s impressive about it is that unlike other website security providers that only report what they have scanned, SiteLock takes things a little further. If you’ve ever been hacked, you know it’s not a fun time, and the promise of SiteLock is that they can fix your hacked website and get you back online fast. SiteLock will actually remove the malicious code that they find.

How does SiteLock work?

SiteLocks servers make an entire copy of the website and upload it to their systems. It then performs a scan for anything malicious. If SiteLock’s scanners find any malicious files or code, SiteLock will remove it, fix it, and then re-upload  the website without any interference to the user or website functionality.

It used to be that this type of service would slow down website performance considering the massive upload and download that happens depending on the website. That is in the past now. SiteLock features a Content Delivery Network (CDN) that helps save bandwidth and increase the speed of a website, making the scan unnoticeable.

They can find backdoors to your site that you weren’t aware of and can bring the entire operation down.

There’s just so much to know and so much that they don’t know, that you almost have to be a hacker yourself if you plan to outsmart anyone.
