Sucuri Review (2026)Website Firewall and Cleanup, From $229/yr

Pricing (2026)

✓ Pricing re-verified 27 Oct 2026

Sucuri sells per website. The Security Platform plans each cover one site with unlimited malware and hack removals by Sucuri's team: Basic $229 a year (malware removal SLA 30 hours, scans every 12 hours), Pro $339 a year (12 hours, every 6 hours, advanced SSL support) and Business $549 a year (6 hours, every 30 minutes). Junior Dev is $999.98 a year for 5 sites (12 hours, every 6 hours).

Multi-Site & Custom plans for 10 or more sites are priced on request. If you only want the firewall with CDN, without the cleanup service, the Firewall tab lists Basic at $9.99 a month and Pro at $19.98 a month, with multi-site on request. There is no free plan or free trial on the pricing page; Sucuri advertises a 30-day guarantee, and its free SiteCheck scanner and WordPress plugin are separate free tools. Plans change — always verify the live price on their site.

Category context: IT & Productivity. Across the 40 tools in this category that we researched with a public US-dollar price, the median entry price is $15 a month (lowest paid plan as listed, per seat where the vendor prices per seat). Compare pricing conditions in the Software Cost Atlas →

What the pricing page doesn’t say

The catch

The cleanup times in the pricing table are described as estimated response times, not a guaranteed fix time. The refund rules disagree with each other: the terms tie the refund to not having submitted a malware removal request, while the help article ties it to no request having been completed. Cancelling needs a support ticket, not a button.

What Sucuri does

Website security for any CMS or host: a web application firewall with CDN, malware scanning and unlimited hack cleanups by Sucuri's own security team, blocklist monitoring and SSL support, sold per site on yearly plans.

You are paying for cleanup speed

All three single-site platform plans include unlimited cleanups, the firewall and blocklist monitoring. What rises with the price is how fast Sucuri promises to act and how often it scans: from 30 hours and a scan every 12 hours on Basic to 6 hours and a scan every 30 minutes on Business. Sucuri's own explanation calls these estimated ticket response times, with resolution time varying, so treat them as targets rather than a guaranteed fix time.

If you mainly want the firewall and CDN in front of a site you can clean yourself, the firewall-only plans at $9.99 or $19.98 a month cost less than any platform plan. With 2 to 5 sites, compare Junior Dev ($999.98 for 5) with separate Basic plans ($229 each) before you buy.

How to actually use Sucuri

Check the site first with the free SiteCheck scanner. After buying, add the site in the firewall dashboard: click Add Site, enter the site URL and choose Add this Site. For manual activation the dashboard then tells you which DNS A record to change, so have access to your DNS provider ready and note the old record in case you need to roll back. To cancel later, open a ticket: Sucuri's help centre says all cancellation requests go through the ticketing system, and an active firewall has to be deactivated before the account can be closed.

Distilled from Sucuri's own pages: the Security Platform and Firewall pricing tabs, read on 27 October 2026 and 15 October 2026; the help-centre articles on cancelling, refunds and firewall setup, and the terms of service, read on 15 October 2026. Sucuri is an affiliate partner of ours through CJ. We have not used the software ourselves.

The natural comparison is a free security plugin — free WordPress plugins, including Sucuri's own, can scan and harden a site at no cost. A paid Sucuri plan has to earn its price with what a plugin cannot do: a cloud firewall and CDN in front of the server, and cleanups done by Sucuri's team when a site is hacked.
