Security Hardening
Origins locked behind Cloudflare, secrets out of code, and a clean recovery when something has already gone wrong.
The challenge
Sound familiar?
Exposed admin panels, origins reachable directly by IP, passwords in config files and plugins nobody has updated. Often the first sign of trouble is a server running at full CPU for someone else's botnet.
Our approach
What we do
- 01
Cloudflare in front
DNS and proxy through Cloudflare, WAF rules for the attacks you actually see, rate limits on login and API endpoints, and real visitor IPs restored at the origin.
- 02
Origin lockdown
The origin accepts traffic only from the proxy. Admin interfaces sit behind allow-lists, and services that should be private stop listening on public addresses.
- 03
Secrets management
Credentials move from code and config files into a secret store, get rotated, and are scoped to the services that need them.
- 04
Cleanup and recovery
If a server is already compromised, we identify what got in, preserve evidence, restore clean sites from backups, and rebuild rather than patch.
What you get
- Cloudflare configuration with WAF and rate-limit rules
- Origins reachable only through the proxy
- Secrets moved out of code and rotated
- A written report of findings and changes made
