Website security review and hardening

Most small-business sites are compromised through something the owner did not know was running: an outdated plugin, a version number published in a header, a misconfigured server, an admin panel reachable from the open internet.

The Niro review looks at your site the way an outsider would, finds what is exposed, and the hardening work closes it. Then monitoring watches for it coming back.

A hacked service-business site is not usually a dramatic breach. It is a quiet redirect or an injected page that destroys your search rankings and your credibility before anyone notices.

What this includes

  • External security review: A non-invasive review of publicly exposed website and configuration issues, reported with priority rather than as an undifferentiated list.
  • Priority hardening: HTTPS and TLS configuration, security headers, exposed-version cleanup, and applicable configuration fixes actually applied, not just recommended.
  • Privacy and consent controls: Form notices, consent and cookie controls where applicable, and supported customer data-request mechanisms.
  • Ongoing monitoring: Uptime and vulnerability monitoring after launch for the managed environment, so a new exposure surfaces as an alert.

Common questions

What does the security review cover?

An external, non-invasive review of what your site and its configuration expose publicly: TLS and header configuration, disclosed software versions, reachable administrative surfaces, and common misconfigurations. It is a review of exposure, not a penetration test of your internal network.

Our site is small. Is it really a target?

Most compromises are not targeted. They are automated scans looking for a known vulnerable version of something, and a small site running an unpatched plugin matches that pattern exactly. Being small is not protection.

Does this make us legally compliant?

No, and that distinction matters. CASRA implements technical and privacy controls such as consent mechanisms and data-request handling. Legal opinions and attorney review are not included unless separately arranged.

Where this sits in an engagement

Included at every level. Every engagement is a fixed implementation price agreed before work starts, paid half at signing and half at launch, with the working build shown to you at the halfway point. After launch it moves onto a managed monthly plan.

  • Essential (Fix It): The digital foundation done properly. A custom site that loads fast, converts, and is not quietly exposed.
  • Professional (Grow It): Everything in Essential, plus the backend, database, and admin controls that turn a website into the system the business runs on.
  • Premier AI (Automate It): Everything in Professional, plus a custom AI agent wired into a real workflow with a human escalation path and logs.
