Signs worth investigating

  1. Visitors are redirected to pages you don’t recognize.
  2. Unfamiliar content, files or accounts appear.
  3. A browser or search engine displays a warning.
  4. Site access or behaviour changes for no clear reason.
  5. The issue returns after an attempted cleanup.

Do any of these sound familiar?

These signs guide the investigation. Confirming a compromise and its extent requires assessment.

Recovery with a defined scope and checks

  1. Understand the incident

    Gather the available history, access and impact while preserving the context needed to investigate.

  2. Define the intervention

    Explain the findings, dependencies and proposed work, including appropriate recovery, cleanup or containment measures.

  3. Carry out and verify

    Complete the authorized work, check the agreed criteria and document what needs follow-up.

  4. Recommend ongoing care

    Advise on updates and other measures based on the identified causes and risks. Maintenance can be arranged separately.

What depends on your situation

Recovery questions

Can you help if I don’t have a backup?

We assess the situation and available options. A missing or unusable backup can limit what can be recovered.

Will Google’s warning disappear as soon as the site is cleaned?

Repair and review by external services are separate steps. Where included in the scope, we can help with a review request; the timing and decision depend on those services.

Does cleanup mean it can never happen again?

The work addresses the incident and the issues included in scope. Prevention requires ongoing care and also depends on the environment, access and future changes.
