Sucuri

paid From $19/mo · Founded 2010 · cloud

Website security platform — malware scan, WAF, hack cleanup. Free scanner, paid protection.

Free tier: free site security scanner

What it does well

  • Unlimited malware and hack cleanup is included in all paid annual plans.
  • The Web Application Firewall (WAF) effectively blocks common attacks like SQL injections and XSS.
  • Provides a virtual private network (VPN) and a content delivery network (CDN) for performance.

Where it falls short

  • The free scanner only checks externally and cannot detect server-side infections.
  • The core WAF and cleanup services are not available without a paid subscription.
  • SSL certificate support on the WAF is included, but custom certificates require higher-tier plans.
