3 Ways to Protect Your Customers If You Are a Web Agency

If you develop webs for others, whether using WordPress, Joomla, Drupal or programmed by yourself, we are sure you know what it is to have been hacked or infected. The number of infections, spambots and attacks grows every day. That is why it is very likely that you have already suffered the consequences of malware, viruses and attacks. So, why don’t protect your customers websites?

What happens if you do not protect the clients of your web agency

During the development of the client’s website

In many cases while developing and adjusting the changes on the web that the client requests do not update the theme, plugins or components. This makes you a perfect victim for XSS attacks, phishing or any type of virus. And you have to talk to him, during the development of the project, to invest more money in eliminating the infection. Or more time, which ends up being the same.

Once you have put the web into production

If you are not responsible for the maintenance of your client’s website, and they do not care to protect it, it is very likely that you will contact you because some part of the web does not work. On multiple occasions it is because they have infected or hacked their website. Sometimes it is easy to detect that it has been attacked, others, you must investigate what has been able to happen and find unlicit accesses or infected files that explain the dysfunctionality of the web. The time you could spend developing webs for others, or even improving that client’s, is spent searching and cleaning.

If you carry out the maintenance of your clients’ websites

In this case you worry about updating and securing the websites of your customers. Yet time spent is not always rewarded. New infections, hosting configurations or any new vulnerability can be your worst nightmare. Or your client’s nightmare and positioning.

3 solutions to protect your customers websites

If you are a web agency or a developer who wants to devote their time developing the web, designing it or talking about the options with your client, you are interested in these three solutions to protect and secure the webs of your clients.

1.Scan and clean your web daily

Imagine that you have a tool that analyzes and cleans the web daily for you. Without affecting its performance and totally transparent. Warning you when there is a virus, or malware infection and teach you the clean file so you can validate it. It analyzes balcklists and vulnerabilities.

2. Protect the web of your clients

One step further. Protect the web to avoid infections and attacks. Increase your performance by blocking infections and spambots. Maybe because you could not update everything or have custom plugins or components and it is not so easy to update. Using a specific firewall to block infections and attacks will keep your web safe.
