How We Scan for Hacked Websites

Research-Driven Malware Signatures

This scanner monitors for signs of website malware and Indicators of Compromise (IOC) with our website scanning tools.

Strong and Lightweight Malware Scanners

Our scanning engine is fast and lightweight for any environment. Sucuri’s server-side and remote scanners are constantly updated to address the spread of malicious content.

Alerts and Reports

Hackers discover new vulnerabilities every day. We protect sites and stop suspicious behavior. Mitigating new threats rarely requires a patch.

Complete Website Scanner

Automated hacker tools target all sites. We stop brute force attacks and password cracking to prevent site abuse.

Enabling Website Malware Scanning

Add Your Site to Remote Scanner

After signing up, just type your website URL to get started. If needed, you can request a malware cleanup right away. The remote scanner is enabled instantly and will begin analyzing your site from all angles. The remote scanner captures blocklist warnings and malware visible in the source code, including conditional malware that only presents itself to certain kinds of visitors.

Activate Server-Side PHP Scanner

Next, enable the server-side scanner with FTP/SFTP credentials from your Sucuri dashboard. This deep-scanning engine has full access to scanning PHP files on your server. Some malware hides itself from visitors, but it can’t hide from our server-side scanner. We see things like backdoors, phishing pages, email and DDoS scripts. Our analysts are happy to set it up for you too with a simple support request.

Adjust Your Monitoring Types

By default, we offer malware and blocklist monitoring so you are alerted if we detect suspicious files or security warnings on your website. We also check your DNS records for changes. Uptime monitoring allows you to receive alerts if your website goes down for any reason. Feel free to adjust the frequency of these scans from your Sucuri dashboard settings to suit your needs.

Set Up Alerts and Email Reports

Our global alerts settings in your Sucuri profile allow you to set up alerting via email, SMS, Slack, and RSS. You can also set up generic post requests to your own custom webhooks in JSON, CSV, HTML, or plain text formats. Our email reports recap data found by our monitoring engines and can be sent to you via plain text or HTML. Setting up weekly or monthly emails is an optional feature as well.
