Incident Response and Recovery
When a security incident occurs, every minute of delay increases damage. Our incident response approach follows a process aligned to industry practices.
- Containment: Immediate isolation of affected components to prevent spread
- Root cause analysis: Identifying the exact vulnerability exploited
- Eradication and remediation: Removal of malicious code, closure of exploited vectors, and emergency patching
- Service restoration: Staged recovery from clean backups with integrity verification before going live
- Post-incident hardening: Structural improvements and updated security protocols to prevent recurrence
- Incident documentation: Full reporting for internal stakeholders
What Our Infrastructure Security Covers
Our infrastructure security ensures the hosting environment, network layer, and server configuration supporting your website are monitored and resilient against modern threats.
- HTTPS enforcement with TLS 1.2/1.3: Strong cipher suites for all HTTPS connections
- DDoS protection and mitigation: Security at the network edge to deflect attacks without impacting site availability
- Managed SSL/TLS certificate: PProvisioning of SSL certificate, renewal monitoring, and expiry alerting to prevent lapses in HTTPS enforcement
- 24/7 server monitoring: Defined alerting thresholds for anomalous traffic, resource spikes, and unauthorised access attempts

Frequently Asked Questions
What is web security and why does it matter for a corporate website?
Web security is an essential task of protecting a website’s application layer, server infrastructure, data transmission, and connected systems from unauthorised access, exploitation, and service disruption. A corporate website faces threats including brute force login attacks, plugin and theme vulnerabilities, SQL injection, cross-site scripting (XSS), malware injection, and server-level exploits. Without a structured, layered security approach, it is not a question of whether your website will get compromised – it is when.
What risks can poor web security create for a corporate organisation?
The consequences extend well beyond a website going offline. From an IT and business perspective, the risks include:
- Data breach exposure – Unauthorised access to form submissions, user accounts, or integrated CRM and customer data, triggering PDPA notification obligations
- SEO blacklisting – Google Safe Browsing flags compromised sites, removing them from search results and destroying organic traffic
- Reputational damage – A defaced or malware-serving website directly undermines client and stakeholder confidence
- Operational disruption – Compromised admin access or ransomware deployment can take down internal workflows dependent on the website
- Regulatory and legal liability – For regulated industries, a breach can result in MAS TRM non-compliance findings or PDPA enforcement actions
- Lateral movement risk – A poorly isolated website can serve as an entry point into broader internal network infrastructure
Does web security only apply to large organisations?
How often should a corporate website be updated or patched?
Security patching should be treated as a critical, real-time requirement to mitigate emerging vulnerabilities. At a minimum, a comprehensive security review and update cycle should be performed bi-annually to ensure core stability.
- Core updates – Applied within 48 to 72 hours of a security release, as CVE details become public immediately upon patch release, giving attackers a narrow exploitation window
- Plugin and theme updates – Reviewed weekly and applied promptly, particularly for plugins with known CVE histories
- Dependency audits – Quarterly reviews of all installed plugins, themes, and libraries to identify abandoned or unmaintained components that no longer receive security updates
- Vulnerability Assessment – Recommended annually or following any significant site change, integration addition, or infrastructure migration
What should we do if our website is compromised?
A structured incident response process is essential and below is our sequence:
- Containment – Immediately take the site offline or switch to maintenance mode to prevent further spread or data exfiltration
- Preserve evidence – Capture server logs, access logs, and file modification timestamps before any cleanup, as these are critical for root cause analysis and potential regulatory reporting
- Root cause identification – Determine the exact entry point – whether a vulnerable plugin, compromised admin credential, server misconfiguration, or supply chain compromise via a third-party script
- Eradication – Remove all malicious code, backdoors, and injected files. Note that malware often plants multiple backdoors; surface-level cleanup without full file integrity verification leads to reinfection
- Clean restoration – Restore from a verified clean backup taken prior to the compromise, with integrity checks before going live
- Post-incident hardening – Close the identified vulnerability, rotate all credentials, review access logs for lateral movement, and conduct a full security audit before relaunch
- Regulatory notification – If personal data was exposed, PDPA obligations require assessment of whether a data breach notification to the PDPC is required within the prescribed timeframe
Can web security implementation support PDPA and internal IT compliance requirements?
Yes, and for corporate websites this alignment is not optional but expected! A properly implemented security architecture directly supports PDPA compliance by ensuring:
- Data collected through web forms, contact pages, or integrated CRMs is transmitted over TLS-encrypted connections
- Access to personal data stored or processed through the website is governed by role-based access controls and MFA
- Data retention and deletion practices on the website align with your organisation’s PDPA data protection policy
- Security incident response procedures include breach assessment protocols as required under PDPA’s mandatory data breach notification framework
For clients subject to MAS TRM Guidelines, our implementation also addresses technology risk controls at the web application and infrastructure layer, supporting your internal IT audit and third-party vendor assessment requirements.
Do you provide ongoing monitoring and maintenance after launch?
Yes. A corporate website is not a static asset;, it is a live application running on an evolving technology stack in a constantly shifting threat landscape. Our post-launch security practice covers:
- Continuous uptime and anomaly monitoring with defined alert thresholds and escalation protocols
- Real-time malware scanning and file integrity monitoring to detect injected code or unauthorised file modifications
- Monthly plugin and theme patch management with pre-update staging environment testing to prevent compatibility breakage
- Monthly security review reports covering patch status, access log anomalies, backup integrity, and vulnerability scan results
Can web security be built into a new website from the start?
Yes! This is the most optimal and cost-effective approach. Retrofitting security onto a poorly built existing site is significantly more complex and expensive than engineering it correctly from the outset. Our security-by-design approach integrates across every project phase:
- Planning – Threat modelling, hosting architecture selection, compliance requirement mapping, and third-party integration risk assessment
- Development – Secure coding standards, OWASP development practices, minimal plugin footprint, and elimination of unnecessary attack surface
- Testing – Pre-launch vulnerability scanning, authentication testing and security header verification
- Launch – Hardened server configuration, WAF activation, SSL/TLS enforcement, and secure DNS setup
- Post-launch – Ongoing monitoring, patch management, backup governance, and periodic security assessments
Building security in from Day 1 means your corporate website is not just functional at launch, it is defensible, compliant, and maintainable for the long term.
