Website Protection Checklist for 2026

A practical checklist for agencies and founders: SSL, backups, copy protection, DMCA readiness, and client domain licensing.

Security is more than firewalls. If your content walks out the door, your marketing funnel leaks. Use this 2026 checklist.

Technical basics

  • HTTPS everywhere + HSTS where possible
  • Weekly backups stored off-site
  • CMS and plugin updates within 7 days
  • Strong admin passwords + 2FA

Content protection

  • Licensed copy-protection script on client sites
  • Image right-click warnings on portfolios
  • Visible protection badge linked to status page
  • Registry of protected domains with expiry dates

Legal readiness

  • Copyright ownership documented
  • DMCA / notice templates ready
  • Contact channel for infringement reports

Operations

  • Monthly scan for cloned pages
  • Expiry alerts 30 days before license end
  • Client education: “what protection covers / does not cover”

WebLock’s admin panel is built around this checklist — domains, plans, expiry, embed code, and status verification in one place.
