## Website Security Hardening FAQs

### Is my small business really a target?

Yes. Most attacks are automated and hit every site they can find. Basic hardening stops the vast majority.

### Why host on Cloudflare?

Cloudflare runs one of the largest networks in the world, so your site loads fast everywhere, stays online during traffic spikes and gets enterprise-grade protection from attacks and bots.

### Can you fix a hacked website?

Yes. We clean up malware, close the hole that let attackers in, restore from clean backups where possible and harden the site so it does not happen again.
