Wade Auto

Wade Auto, a leading provider of automotive accessories, faced a critical setback when their website was hacked, compromising security and disrupting operations. On top of resolving this urgent security breach, they needed a custom search feature to help customers easily find products by car type, year, and model. Addressing these major pain points, we quickly secured and restored their website, then developed a seamless, user-friendly search tool—transforming Wade Auto’s site into a secure, efficient platform that enhances the customer experience and supports business growth.

The Challenge

Wade Auto, a provider of high-quality automotive accessories, needed a custom search feature that would allow customers to easily search products by car type, year, and model. However, before any development could begin, their website was hacked, exposing critical vulnerabilities and disrupting business operations. This presented two major pain points:

  1. Severe Security Breach: The hacked website compromised site integrity, customer trust, and the overall functionality of the platform.
  2. Lack of Advanced Search Functionality: Without a custom search tool, customers struggled to find products tailored to their specific vehicles, negatively impacting user experience and sales.

Our Solution

We tackled these challenges with a two-phase approach:

  • Immediate Security Restoration: Our first priority was resolving the security breach. We conducted comprehensive malware scans, patched vulnerable software, and performed penetration testing to identify and eliminate potential threats. Once the site was fully secured, we migrated it to our secure hosting platform for ongoing protection and stability.
  • Development of a Custom Search Feature: With the site secure, we designed and implemented a custom search tool that allowed users to seamlessly search for products by car type, year, and model. This feature was built for accuracy and ease of use, greatly enhancing the shopping experience.

The Outcome

By swiftly resolving the security breach and delivering a flawless custom search feature, we restored Wade Auto’s website functionality and significantly improved user experience. The site is now secure, reliable, and equipped with powerful search capabilities—enabling customers to easily find products and driving increased engagement and sales.
