Website Security & Modernization
Website Security, PHP Upgrades & Modernization Services
Keep your website maintainable, supported and ready for the people who rely on it. Duara Dev helps assess security risks, apply PHP updates, recover compromised sites and plan modernization around real business functions.
Professional Website Security Services
Security work starts with a clear scope and evidence. A public review, an authenticated application audit and a server investigation answer different questions. We explain the access required, identify who owns each layer and agree implementation and acceptance checks before production changes.
Emergency PHP Security Updates and Upgrades
The PHP project released fixes on October 21, 2026 for CVE-2026-109618 and CVE-2026-109619, which can potentially allow unauthenticated remote code execution. Supported branches received 8.5.12, 8.4.27, 8.3.36 and 8.2.35. Vendor packages may use backported fixes, so a version banner alone is not a reliable verdict. Check your PHP runtime and vendor patch status before choosing the next step.
Patching addresses the immediate runtime issue. A larger compatibility upgrade or migration can be planned separately, while suspected compromise requires investigation. Security plugins and firewalls do not replace the runtime fix.
Find the right website security service
Emergency PHP security updates
Emergency PHP security updates address flaws in the runtime that serves your website. Duara Dev helps identify the installed package, establish whether a fix is available and deploy the appropriate update with a practical verification plan.
Explore service →PHP version upgrades
PHP version upgrade services help move a working application onto a supported runtime without losing the business functions it relies on. We review your code and dependencies, choose a suitable target and make compatibility work visible before deployment.
Explore service →Website security audits
A website security audit gives the owner an evidence-based view of risks and a practical order for addressing them. We agree the systems, permissions and depth of assessment first, then explain what was checked, what was found and what remains uncertain.
Explore service →WordPress security
WordPress security services cover the application, its accounts and the hosting runtime beneath it. We help you understand which layer needs attention, coordinate safe updates and protect the workflows your editors and customers use.
Explore service →Hacked website recovery
Hacked website recovery begins with understanding what can still be trusted. Duara Dev helps assess the incident, contain access and plan restoration around available evidence, clean software and the condition of your backups.
Explore service →PHP website migration
PHP website migration services move an application, its data and its operating requirements to a suitable environment. We plan around functionality, content and search visibility so the migration is more than a file transfer.
Explore service →PHP to modern technology
If you want to migrate a PHP website to modern technology, start with the problem the move must solve. Supported PHP remains a valid development choice. We compare retaining it with alternatives based on your application, team and operating budget.
Explore service →Legacy website modernization
Legacy website modernization improves the parts of an application that make it difficult to operate, extend or secure. We begin with business-critical behavior and technical constraints, then plan changes that can be delivered and verified in stages.
Explore service →Laravel upgrades
Laravel upgrade services coordinate the framework, PHP runtime and Composer packages your application needs. We review the current installation and business behavior before choosing a supported target and a realistic upgrade sequence.
Explore service →Web server security
Web server security services examine the environment that runs your application. We help clarify the boundary between hosting-provider responsibilities and your own configuration, access and maintenance tasks.
Explore service →Website malware removal
Website malware removal focuses on identifying malicious changes and restoring a trustworthy application. We inspect more than the visible symptom and connect cleanup to the access or vulnerability that allowed the changes.
Explore service →Security maintenance
Website security maintenance turns updates, backups and follow-up into an agreed operating routine. We define the systems covered and who acts on findings so maintenance responsibilities remain clear after a launch, upgrade or recovery.
Explore service →PHP security assessment
A PHP security assessment helps establish which runtime serves your website, whether the relevant security fixes are present and what to do next. Start with your website URL and what you know about the host; you do not need to diagnose the problem first.
Explore service →WordPress Website Security and Protection
Core, plugins, themes, accounts and the host each need an owner. WordPress security support coordinates application checks with PHP updates and hardening. We test editor and customer journeys rather than treating a working homepage as the only acceptance criterion.
Website Vulnerability Audits and Malware Removal
An authorized vulnerability assessment helps prioritize weaknesses. Suspicious redirects or files require malware investigation and cleanup; damaged or untrusted environments may need broader website recovery. Available backups and system integrity determine recovery options.
Legacy Website Migration and Modernization
Keep working functions while addressing unsupported dependencies, hosting constraints or difficult code. Legacy modernization may involve targeted repairs rather than a rewrite. Supported PHP remains a valid option; alternative stacks also need continuing security maintenance. Migrations account for data, integrations and existing URLs.
Ongoing Website Security and Maintenance
Define update ownership, backup restoration checks and review routines through a website security maintenance plan. Coverage and response arrangements are agreed for the actual environment. Monitoring is useful when alerts have an owner and a clear next action.
Our assessment and implementation process
- Understand: identify the platform, hosting, business-critical functions and authorized access.
- Assess: verify versions, dependencies, patch evidence and relevant symptoms; record unknowns.
- Plan: agree the scope, quote, backups, compatibility checks and rollback criteria.
- Implement: make approved changes with staging where practical and controlled production deployment.
- Verify: test essential journeys and hand over evidence, limitations and maintenance recommendations.
Why Choose Duara Dev for Website Security?
Our approach connects application work with hosting and maintenance responsibilities. You receive an explanation of the findings, a proposed scope and checks appropriate to the change. We preserve working features and URLs where possible, communicate uncertainty and avoid claims of guaranteed immunity or recovery.
Frequently Asked Questions About Website Security
Where should I start if I do not know my PHP version?
Request a PHP security assessment with the website URL and hosting provider if known. Definitive verification may need authorized access or provider evidence.
Will a security audit fix the site?
An audit identifies and prioritizes findings. Remediation is agreed separately so changes and costs are clear.
Do I have to move away from PHP?
No. Supported and patched PHP can remain an appropriate technology. Migration should solve a specific business or maintenance problem.
Can you guarantee recovery after a hack?
No. We first inspect backup availability and system integrity, then explain feasible restoration options.
