**SiteLock’s SMART (Secure Malware Alert & Removal Tool)** is designed to detect, alert, and remove malware from your website. Here’s how SMART works to protect your site:

### **1. **Automated Malware Scanning**

   - **Deep Analysis**: The tool examines both the visible and underlying files on your website to detect hidden malware that might not be immediately apparent.

### **2. **Real-Time Alerts**

   - **Immediate Notifications**: If SMART detects malware or suspicious activity, it sends real-time alerts to notify you of the issue. This helps you respond quickly to potential security threats.

   - **Detailed Reports**: Alerts include detailed information about the detected threats, including their location and nature, allowing you to understand the impact and take appropriate action.

### **3. **Automated Malware Removal**

   - **Cleanup Tools**: SMART includes automated malware removal tools that can clean infected files and remove malicious code from your website without requiring manual intervention.

   - **Restoration**: After removing malware, SMART helps restore your site to its previous, secure state, minimizing downtime and disruption.

### **4. **Integrated Security Features**

   - **Comprehensive Protection**: SMART works in conjunction with other SiteLock security features, such as the web application firewall (WAF), to provide comprehensive protection against various types of attacks and vulnerabilities.

   - **Performance Optimization**: By removing malware and addressing security issues, SMART helps ensure that your site runs smoothly and efficiently.

### **5. **User-Friendly Interface**
