The book keeps up with new malware

As new malware appears, I’ll add useful cases and techniques to the book. In September 2026, I added the SC 4.0.3 Self-Healing Malware Case Study. Every update is included with your purchase. Read the case study

A practical skill with a large market

WordPress powers over 43% of the web. When a site is hacked, someone still has to recover it.

43%+

of the web uses WordPress

That scale creates an ongoing need for people who understand how to investigate and recover hacked sites.

estimated websites infected

A widely cited Sophos estimate found about 30,000 websites were newly infected with malicious code each day.

AI assists. Humans recover.

AI can explain suspicious code and suggest steps. It cannot take authorized access, judge every layer of evidence, safely repair a live site, test its business functions, or take responsibility for the result. A skilled person still has to do that work.

That is the opportunity: learn the human recovery process WordPress site owners still need.
