Website Security Audit

Independent Website Security Audits

Most small business owners look at a green tick from a free security plugin and think their site is safe. That tick is usually a lie. Automated plugins only scan surface files. They don’t look at your database health, your server setup or your ability to survive a targeted attack. If a smart competitor or an automated script targets your site today, a basic plugin won’t stop your server from falling over.

What The Security Audit Covers

Your site is only as strong as its weakest link. This review covers your entire footprint across three main areas.

WP Core & Database Hardening

We check for outdated code and security gaps in your active themes and plugins. I look for exposed tables, unsafe prefixes and junk data left behind by old plugins that automated scripts love to target. We also check admin usernames and file editing access to stop login attacks.

Server & Environment Testing

This means checking your cPanel or Spanel settings, PHP memory limits and file execution setup. I check if your true server IP address is leaked to the public web. A leaked IP is a goldmine for attackers. We also test how your hosting handles simulated traffic spikes.

Edge Defense & Caching

I check your domain routing to ensure it handles traffic well. We review your Cloudflare setup to see where firewall rules can stop bad traffic before it ever hits your server.

The Audit Report

I do away with automated fifty page reports full of useless charts and jargon. You receive a clean document written directly by me. It breaks down the immediate risks that need a fix today, the performance issues slowing down your pages for local Kiwi customers and a step-by-step plan to fix it.

The cost is 350 dollars as a flat rate. There are no contracts and no hidden fees. If you choose to have me implement the fixes and move to a managed retainer, the full fee is credited back to your setup costs.
