The charity's site had been hijacked with spam posts, rogue plugins and obfuscated payloads. The 68 MB database dump was parsed offline to recover every page and image, and the site was rebuilt on a modern static host with programmes, gallery, leadership, events, partner and donate pages. Also a single-file landing page for its Kingdom Coders youth bootcamp in Pretoria.

Real incident response for an NGO: recover, rebuild, then keep it safe.
