Manual updates & automatic offsite backups

Let's face it, updates can be a real pain. We handle them manually to ensure everything plays nicely together. Plus, we automatically back up your site every single day (every hour for eCom sites!), so if disaster strikes, we can roll back the clock in minutes.

Outdated software? That's hacker heaven. We slash vulnerabilities by 60% with regular updates.

Daily backups mean your data is always safe and sound. We're talking a 99.9% recovery rate—peace of mind guaranteed.

No more update-induced headaches. We proactively squash compatibility issues by 40%, keeping websites running smoothly.

Enhanced security with virtual patching

Security breaches? Not on our watch! We've partnered with Patchstack to give your clients enterprise-level protection. We deploy 'virtual patches' that act like shields, often stopping threats before they even become a problem.

Patchstack's database is HUGE, giving us the intel to identify and squash threats fast.

We don't wait for official fixes. Our virtual patches jump into action ASAP, shielding your website from harm.

On average, we slash security incidents by 75%. That means less stress, fewer frantic calls, and happier customers.
