My community site, [login to view URL], has been hacked. Instead of the homepage it now displays a “Notice Out of Service” graphic and I can no longer reach wp-admin. I haven’t tried any fixes—None so far—and, unfortunately, No, I don't have any backup available. Here is what I need: • Clean every trace of malware, close the security hole that allowed it, and bring the front-end and wp-admin back online. • Recover all existing pages, posts, media and user data without relying on a backup. • Harden WordPress, themes and plugins, then set up an automated backup routine—Yes, that would be helpful—so I never face this situation again. Please outline your approach, the tools you’ll use (e.g., Wordfence, Sucuri CLI, SSH, cPanel, phpMyAdmin, etc.), and the timeframe you’ll need. The job is complete when the site loads correctly, I can log in normally, and scheduled backups are running.

Hi there, I am ready to architect your website recovery using my 13+ years of experience in high-stakes WordPress security and malware forensics. I specialize in restoring compromised environments without backups by performing a surgical manual cleaning of the core files, database, and media directories to ensure your community data remains intact. I will use SSH and SFTP for a deep-file audit, replacing infected core files and themes with fresh, clean versions while maintaining your custom data. I will then utilize phpMyAdmin to scan for malicious injections in your database and deploy Wordfence and server-side hardening to seal the entry point. I can have your site back online and secured within 24–48 hours. Quick Queries: Q. Since wp-admin is locked, do you have access to your hosting cPanel or SSH credentials? Q. Would you like me to set up the automated backups on a cloud service like Google Drive or Dropbox for extra redundancy? I am ready to jump on a call for further discussion. Looking forward for your response. Best Regards, DziMark
