How do I know if my web site is free of malware?

Malware is rarely visible on your website; it is hidden in your web page code.  A malware scan by a malware detection tool can help you identify infected code.  The GeoTrust Web Site Anti-Malware Scan includes a daily malware scan.  If malware is detected, you will be notified and directed to a list of infected pages and the code causing the problem.  Your web site administrator can find and delete all instances of the code and request that your site be re-scanned within 24 hours.

Could web site malware scanning slow down my website?

No – Website malware scanning is equivalent to having 10 visitors navigate your web site.

How can I protect my site from malware?

Like most thieves, malware hackers look for easy targets such as a website where malware will go undetected for as long as possible.  The GeoTrust Website Anti-Malware Scan includes a daily malware scan to detect malware and alert you with detailed information to respond quickly to the attack.  Posting the GeoTrust Website Anti-Malware Seal on your website is like posting an alarm security sign in your front window.  It shows hackers that your site is scanned daily to detect malware.

What happens if malware is detected on my web site?

If malware is discovered, the GeoTrust Website Anti-Malware Seal no longer displays.  You receive an email alert warning you of the malware infection with instructions to sign in to the End User Portal.  The End User Portal services tab shows a list of infected pages and the code causing the problem.  You or your website administrator can find and delete all instances of the malware and request that your site be re-scanned within 24 hours.  When the scan confirms that all instances of malware are removed, the seal displays again.

What does the GeoTrust Website Anti-Malware Seal mean to my customers?
