WordPress Security & Performance
Protect what powers your business.
Threats never clock off. Your protection should not either.
Our WordPress Security & Performance plans give you proactive defence, real-time monitoring and continuous optimisation. Your site stays fast, secure and compliant, while you stay focused on the work that matters.
Why Choose Made Neat's Protection?
Because prevention is smarter than repair.
Most WordPress incidents start with neglect, not a genius hacker. Out-of-date plugins, missed updates and weak policies create easy openings. Our plans close those gaps and keep them closed.
With our WSP plans, your website gets the same level of protection we use for our own infrastructure:
-
Proactive updates and monitoring: Regular updates to WordPress core, themes, and plugins, all handled safely.
-
Advanced security stack: Continuous scanning, intrusion prevention, and DDoS protection keep threats out.
-
Performance optimisation: We monitor load speeds, Core Web Vitals, and database health so your site runs faster and ranks higher.
-
Global compliance coverage: Automatically updated legal documents and cookie management for over 25 regions.
-
Cyber insurance included: For hosted clients, our plans include Cyber Security Insurance for added business protection.
Prevention lowers risk, speeds up your site and gives you peace of mind.
Our WordPress Security & Performance Services

24/7 monitoring detects and neutralises threats before they impact your site. Intrusion prevention, bot filtering, and malware scanning keep your website secure at all times.

Cyber Security Insurance
For clients hosted with us, our plans include Cyber Security Insurance allowance as an added layer of protection.
Is Your Website Protected, or Just Hoping for the Best?
Most business websites are vulnerable, not because they’re ignored, but because they’re not maintained properly.
If your site is:
-
Slow to load or frequently down.
-
Missing updates or plugin patches.
-
Lacking security monitoring or backups.
-
Displaying outdated legal policies.
-
Dependent on “hope” instead of proactive management.
Then your business is at risk.
Our WordPress Security service fixes that by combining security, performance and compliance into one managed service. The average cyber incident costs Australian SMBs around $46,000.

FAQs
Do I need security if my site doesn’t store sensitive data?
Yes. Even if your website doesn’t handle personal data, it can still be targeted and compromised. Hackers exploit outdated plugins and CMS vulnerabilities to spread malware or deface sites, damaging your reputation and search rankings.
How quickly can protection start?
Setup usually takes 2-3 business days from payment depending on the the state of the website. We conduct a security audit, configure backups and monitoring, and deploy protection immediately.
Do I need to host my website with Made Neat to get WSP?
Yes, hosting with us allows deeper integration and faster recovery if issues arise. If your site is hosted elsewhere, we can coordinate securely with your provider.
What happens if my site gets hacked?
We’ll restore it from secure backups and conduct a full investigation to prevent a repeat. Most recoveries happen within hours, not days.
What legal compliance coverage is included?
Each plan includes tailored legal policies, cookie consent systems, and automated updates that meet privacy regulations in 25+ regions, including Australia, the EU, UK, US (CCPA), Canada, Brazil, and more.
Is there a contract period?
Yes. All security plans are based on a 12-month term with monthly or annual payment options. Plans automatically renew unless cancelled before renewal.
Do I still need a security plan if my website is already hosted with Made Neat?
Yes, our hosting and security services work together, but they serve different purposes. Hosting manages the infrastructure; WSP protects your actual website. Think of hosting as your house and security as your alarm system, insurance, and maintenance combined.
Can you manage websites you didn’t build?
Yes, absolutely. We start with a comprehensive website audit to review your current setup, performance, and vulnerabilities. Once we understand how your site was built, we implement security protection tailored to it, even if we didn’t do the original development.
What happens if my site fails a security audit or shows vulnerabilities?
If we detect vulnerabilities, we’ll fix them immediately or provide a clear remediation plan. You’ll receive a detailed report explaining what was found, what was fixed, and how we’ll prevent it happening again.
Do your plans include performance reporting?
Yes. Our regular reports include security actions, updates, uptime performance, and Core Web Vital metrics. You’ll always have visibility into what’s been done and how your site is performing.
Can you help us meet compliance for specific industries (e.g. healthcare, finance)?
Yes. Our security solutions support compliance for regulated industries. With custom security configurations, access policies, and monitoring, we align with frameworks like ISO 27001 and GDPR, and we can adapt for sector-specific requirements.
How do your security plans differ from standard maintenance plans offered elsewhere?
Most “maintenance plans” only cover plugin updates and backups. Our Security & Performance plans combine proactive security monitoring, vulnerability management, legal compliance, and performance optimisation, all managed by experts who specialise in WordPress.
