Of course there are cases where we absolutely need to take customers offline. In every case we try to get in touch with our customers by chat, mail or phone to get a good solution for them. If they are not able to fix their websites by themselves, we try to support them with knowledge, recommend WP experts or offer a in house malware removal for about 100€/hour. Besides the public available customer settings in the dashboard, we have several security setups running in the background. We have a custom malware detector which was developed by our team, a lot of software firewall setups, virtual root environments for customers, defined access levels/rights for our own staff to prevent damage and risk of curse.
