The challenge

Plugins and themes are the number one attack vector. Without a firewall and regular scans, your site is exposed the moment it goes live — and most owners find out only after they are hacked.

Why we recommend it

  • Real-time threat feed and firewall rules
  • Scheduled and on-demand malware scans
  • Brute-force login protection and 2FA
  • Centralized monitoring for multiple sites
  • Email alerts when something looks wrong

What you get

  • Web application firewall (WAF)
  • File integrity and malware scanning
  • Login throttling and two-factor auth
  • Country and IP blocking
  • Live traffic and alerting
