Hi! We’re MalCare.


We’re dedicated to making WordPress sites extremely secure.

Some of the biggest organizations secure their WordPress sites using MalCare

Why Malcare?


The WordPress space is
saturated with plug-ins that
demand compromise.

We are your friendly (virtual) neighborhood security geeks!

We built MalCare so that you can have proactive security for your
website, that is easy, secure, and reliable.

Hacks and attacks are a part of maintaining a website, no site is 100% secure. But we wanted to create something that will let you relax and focus on your business.

MalCare is a result of that vision.

We put all our expertise into creating a security solution that will frequently scan your website, alert you in time, and clean up within minutes if malware is found. But what we’re even more proud of is the firewall. The firewall helps you avert any attacks before they infect your website.

Your WordPress website is incredibly important to your business, so we know how critical security is. But there is a lot of misinformation about website security that is peddled by websites that are not credible.

And most measures that you may try have the potential to break your website if not administered properly.

It is the solution that we aspired to create, because every WordPress website is unique and deserves the best security.

Here’s how our story begins.

Back in 2010, Akshat Choudhary, the founder of MalCare, was far far away from the world of WordPress.

He was doing kernel hacking at Citrix, building a networking device called Netscaler.

But then one fine day, Coding Horror crashed. Coding Horror, the programming blog of THE Jeff Atwood aka founder of Stack Overflow.And Jeff Atwood had no reliable back-ups—it was only cached versions of the website that saved the blog.

This got Akshat thinking: If Jeff Atwood doesn’t have back-ups to recover HIS blog-what about regular folk? There was a real problem here that needed solving!

And so, Akshat dove into WordPress, learning on his way to kickass products. He built BlogVault—a backup and security service. He kept polishing the malware scanner till it could use over 100 signals to accurately identify new and the most complex malware. This new security-focussed solution became MalCare.

He realised migrating was a nightmare—so the team set out to build Migrate Guru to make it simpler.

But all of these did not solve the problem of taking complete care of multiple websites from one single place. All of these tools were brilliant, but they needed tobe integrated into one single do-it-all platform.

So, Akshat and team built MalCare. With the help of the friendly, beautiful community around WordPress, they found out all the problems people had while managing websites, and built a solution that addressed it all. Efficiently. Effectively. Easily.
