Our malware removal process

A systematic approach to identifying and removing threats

  1. Assess the device and symptoms
    We start by understanding what is happening and gathering information about the device and the issue.
  2. Identify malicious software or suspicious behaviour
    We scan and investigate to pinpoint what is present, how it behaves, and how it likely arrived.
  3. Remove active threats where possible
    We use professional tools and manual techniques to remove infections as completely as possible.
  4. Check for security weaknesses
    We look for gaps that allowed the infection to occur and advise on how to reduce future risk.
  5. Help secure the system afterwards
    We help strengthen security settings and ensure the device is in better shape before we leave.
  6. Recommend next steps
    We advise on password changes, backup improvements or additional security measures if needed.

More than just removing the infection

Removing malware is just the first step. After cleaning your device, we look at how the infection got in and what can be done to reduce the risk of it happening again. This might include reviewing browser settings, updating software, improving password habits or setting up a basic security routine.

In some cases, a badly infected system may be faster to restore from scratch than to clean completely. If that is the best approach, we will explain why and confirm that you are comfortable before proceeding.
