CodeGuard runs automated daily backups of your files, databases, and emails — stored off-site, encrypted, and ready to restore in one click.
Daily automated backups
Backups run every 24 hours, stored off-site with built-in redundancy. You don't have to remember anything.
One-click restore
Restore individual files or your entire website in two clicks. Pick a date, click restore — done.
Unlimited files & databases
Back up an unlimited number of files and databases — restricted only by the storage space you actually use.
AES-256 encryption
Backups encrypted at rest with AES-256 — the same standard used by banks and governments.
File change monitoring
Get email alerts whenever files change unexpectedly — useful for catching unauthorized edits early.
Staging restore
Test a restore in a staging environment before deploying to production — verify it works before flipping the switch.
What's covered
by CodeGuard.
Beyond simple file backups — CodeGuard understands websites, databases, and email systems.
Files
Every file on your hosting account, including custom themes, uploads, and code.
MySQL + MSSQL databases
Both database engines supported. Backups capture schema and data with referential integrity.
Mailbox-level backups in addition to mail server-level archiving — extra protection for your most important inbox.
Malware monitoring
Backups are scanned for malware on the way in — so you don't restore an infected snapshot.
WordPress + plugin updates
Automatic WordPress and plugin updates with backup-before-update — roll back if something breaks.
Email alerts
Notifications when a backup completes, when files change, when a restore happens — full audit trail.
How do I see my pricing?
CodeGuard pricing depends on your storage usage and is available inside your account. Create a free account or talk to sales for a custom quote based on your site size.
Don't my hosting plans already include backups?
Yes — every Whostpress hosting plan includes daily server-level backups. CodeGuard is an additional, off-site backup layer with encryption, file-change monitoring, and one-click restore — useful as a second line of defense.
How long are backups kept?
Retention depends on your storage allowance. Default retention is multiple weeks of daily snapshots so you can roll back to any specific day.
Can I restore a single file or just full sites?
Both. Pick a backup date and either restore everything, or browse the backup and restore just specific files or folders.
What does "staging restore" mean?
Restore a backup to a non-production environment first, verify everything works as expected, then promote to live. Reduces the risk of restoring something broken into production.
Is the data encrypted in transit?
Yes — backups are encrypted in transit (TLS) and at rest (AES-256). Only you can decrypt and restore them.
