Case Study: Rentals on the Ocean achieves rapid malware removal and 50% traffic growth with SiteLock

SiteLock Reviews Beach Rental Property After Enduring the Winds of A Cyberattack

Rentals on the Ocean, a family-run vacation rental company in Nags Head, NC that manages 12 oceanfront cottages, launched its own website to handle growing bookings. Shortly after going live the site was suspended by the host after a malware infection, causing bookings to drop and forcing the team to take reservations manually.

SiteLock recommended and deployed SiteLock INFINITY™ and TrueShield™ WAF; INFINITY detected and removed multiple malware files (with Expert Services removing one complex file) and the WAF now blocks harmful traffic. The site was restored within hours, SiteLock continuously scans 7,117 files and blocks about 5,000 bots daily, and Rentals on the Ocean reports a 50% increase in traffic and no further security concerns.
