TrustPort False Positive & Blacklist Removal

Is a TrustPort detection a real problem?
TrustPort is a retired / discontinued engine. TrustPort (Czech vendor, used Bitdefender/AVG OEM cores) went dormant after its last release around 2018 and has been dropped from VirusTotal’s live engine roster. If you are seeing a TrustPort detection — almost always on an old VirusTotal report — it is very likely a stale, cached result from an engine that is no longer maintained, not proof your site is infected today.
What to do about it
- Re-scan with my free Is My Site Hacked? checker and on VirusTotal.
- Check whether any currently-maintained engines (Google Safe Browsing, Microsoft, Bitdefender, Norton, etc.) also flag you. If only retired engines like TrustPort show a hit, it is effectively a false positive you can disregard.
- If a live engine flags you too, your site likely has a real infection — get it cleaned and the detections clear.
Need a real cleanup or a delisting handled?
I am a USA-based WordPress security specialist. If your site is genuinely flagged by current engines, I remove the infection completely, submit the delistings on your behalf, and harden the site so it stays clean — one accountable person, not an overseas queue.

Frequently asked questions
Is a TrustPort detection dangerous? On its own, rarely — because TrustPort is no longer maintained, its verdicts are old. What matters is whether any current engine also flags you. Re-scan to be sure.
How do I remove a TrustPort detection? There is no active submission channel for a retired engine. Confirm your site is clean, ignore the stale flag, and if live engines also detect you, get a full cleanup.
