Your site’s been hacked: here’s exactly what to do next

sajdoko — Mon, 15 Jun 2026 09:00:00 +0000

A compromised website creates urgency, but the fastest route to recovery starts with containment and good evidence.

Start with a clear baseline.

Before buying another tool, document what you run and who has access. A short, accurate inventory makes security decisions easier.

Focus on the gaps attackers can use.

Incident response works best when ownership is clear and checks happen on schedule. Keep a record of what you find and assign every fix to a specific person.

Confirm the systems and accounts in scope.
Remove access and software you no longer need.
Patch important weaknesses and verify the change.
Keep evidence your team can understand and reuse.

Simple controls applied consistently prevent more incidents than a long list of tools nobody owns.

Turn the findings into action.

Set a review date and test the plan. If an area is difficult to verify internally, ask for an independent assessment.
