Security Hardening

Security isn’t optional — it’s foundational. At fluffyegg, we help businesses stay protected in a world of constant digital threats. Whether you’re running a WordPress site, a custom Laravel app, or something bespoke, we lock down your systems with robust, tailored security hardening — preventing breaches before they happen and keeping you compliant with key standards like PCI DSS and GDPR.

We start with a deep technical audit of your site, plugins, server stack and codebase. From there, we apply layered, best-practice hardening strategies that match your platform — whether it’s tightening WordPress file permissions and login security, enforcing Laravel middleware protections, or building out a secure infrastructure for your custom application.

For WordPress, we go far beyond security plugins: we manually remove malware, fix compromised databases, disable XML-RPC where needed, restrict admin access, and harden every aspect of your theme and plugin architecture.

For Laravel and custom platforms, we secure routes, manage environment exposure, enforce HTTPS and CSRF protections, configure firewalls, and monitor for unauthorised access. Every fix is implemented with performance and maintainability in mind — we don’t just lock it down, we make sure it keeps running fast and reliably.

If you handle payments or personal data, we help align your site or app with PCI DSS and GDPR compliance — from encryption and secure storage to cookie handling and data access logging. We’ll identify areas of risk and bring your systems in line with regulatory expectations.

All work is done in-house by our experienced Norwich-based team. No outsourcing, no off-the-shelf “scan and patch” solutions — just clean, effective security tailored to your technology and your business.
