How will you know it works? 
Well, we have a dedicated security scanner that will give you a clear security grade and report for your website. This way, you’ll know exactly what to fix.
<h4>WordPress Features</h4>
Security Audit 
SecuPress is the only plugin with a full scanner able to fix the issues for you. And when it requires a decision from you, it will ask you before proceeding. With this feature, you can check 35 security points in 5 minutes and let us take care of the rest.
Once done, you get a security grade that gives you a clear idea of what your security level is. You can export this analysis in PDF format to share with others (clients or colleagues) (1).
Users & Login 
This feature is the easiest way to make sure your users’ data is protected and to keep their accounts from being compromised. With this feature you can limit the number of bad login attempts, ban non-existing usernames login attempts and set a non-login time slot. SecuPress also makes sure you control the sessions of your users.
SecuPress also adds a <a href="https://secupress.me/blog/two-factor-authentication/" rel="nofollow ugc">2FA</a> (Two Factor Authentication) because it’s almost a mandatory feature when it comes to WordPress security!
The plugin also gives you greater user and password control as you can set:
<ul>
<li>Password lifetimes for your users.</li>
<li>Enforce strong password use.</li>
<li>Forbid the use of vague usernames like www or admin.</li>
</ul>
Tired of bots finding your WordPress login page? Finally, don’t let bots find your login page, just move it with the famous Move Login plugin, now included in SecuPress.
Plugins and Themes 
SecuPress helps you detect themes and plugins that are vulnerable or that have been tampered with to include malicious code. If you install one of these, your security module will send out an email alert and give you a warning in WordPress.
SecuPress takes security further by limiting plugin activation, deactivation, installation and removal in your production (live) website. Plugin and theme uploads via .zip files will be on lockdown as well to block off this easy hacking route.
WordPress Core 
SecuPress reinforces the WordPress Core to keep it safe. The security plugin optimizes what’s under the hood to secure the config file by setting the proper parameters.
Sensitive Data 
SecuPress secures content in many ways:
<ul>
<li>The plugin secures WordPress Endpoints and APIs by blocking bad requests for XML-RPC or REST API.</li>
<li>It blocks bad bots with its Robots Blackhole feature.</li>
<li>It provides an anti-hotlink feature to preserve your bandwidth.</li>
<li>The plugin packs 7 anti-disclose security modules to make sure no precious information is available to hackers in your PHP or WordPress itself.</li>
<li>Profile and SecuPress settings pages are password protected to keep sensitive information away from prying eyes.</li>
</ul>
Firewall
<ul>
<li>SecuPress is one of the most efficient WordPress bouncer you’ll ever see!</li>
<li>The plugin blocks malicious incoming requests.</li>
<li>It blocks bad User Agents (no bad crawlers allowed).</li>
<li>Bad requests methods also get the boot in a single click.</li>
<li>URLs are kept in check: no bad URL contents.</li>
<li>SQL injection scanners are kept out as well.</li>
<li>Brute force attempts are stopped in their tracks.</li>
<li>GeoIP Blocking by country gives you more control over your traffic.</li>
</ul>
Malware Scan 
SecuPress has a unique malware scan developed by our security experts. It hunts down bad files and provides you with an easy step-by-step report that lets you take action. It looks into:
<ul>
<li>Bad files in your FTP.</li>
<li>Your uploads folder for dangerous files.</li>
<li>Potential phishing attempts via <code>index.php</code> loads.</li>
</ul>
Backups 
We know firsthand how painful it is to pick up the pieces after an attack damages your WordPress. SecuPress preserves your data to help you avoid lost content or settings if your website comes under attack. The plugin backs up your database and files and lets you download them to guarantee you peace of mind.
Anti Spam 
Did you know that 60% of the traffic on the Internet is generated by bots? Most of them happen to be spam bots. We developed our own anti-spam system that works quietly in the background. Just activate it and enjoy a spam free experience.
Alerts 
Alerts are an essential tool when your website is under attack. When something important happens on your website, SecuPress will send you an alert via email. We’re working on alerts via SMS, Slack & Twitter as well.
You also receive a daily report that provides a debrief of the attempted attack and all the activities blocked by SecuPress.
Scheduled Security Tasks 
SecuPress can run 3 separate scheduled tasks for you. It’s like having a security patrol on your WordPress.
Scheduled Scanner: SecuPress scans your website to detect any issues. After the scan is complete, you get a report in your inbox outlining any actions you have to take to protect your website. 
Scheduled Backup: our team knows that everyone at one time or another forgets to back things up. We made it an automatic task to help ensure you always can recover from an attack with your content safe. 
Scheduled Malware Scan: this security feature scans your website at regular intervals to hunt down any malware that may have gotten into your WordPress.
Logs 
SecuPress will keep a log of important security activities and 404 pages triggered by users, bots or even Chuck Norris. This lets you keep an eye on what’s going on in your WordPress at any time. You can also control banned IPs from this option.

SecuPress with Simple SSL – Simple and Performant Security


J'utilise SecuPress depuis un moment maintenant et il est vraiment bien fait et efficace, je recommande !


Super plugin !


Jusqu'à présent, je l'installais sur tous mes sites mais ces derniers temps, trop de bugs et des mises à jour toutes les semaines. La version 2.3.16.1 m'a fait perdre une matinée entière pour downgrader à la version 2.3.15 et cerise sur le gateau j'ai du reconfiguré chaque site. 



Déçu..



J'espère que l'avenir me fera revenir sur cet avis, en attendant je vais surement me diriger vers une autre solution.


Trop de bugs ces derniers temps

Protect your WordPress with SecuPress, analyze and ensure the safety of your website daily.

<h4>Reduce your WordPress website’s risk to nearly zero with Solid Security</h4>
<a href="https://go.solidwp.com/wporg-security-ithemes" rel="nofollow ugc">Formerly iThemes Security. Looking for iThemes? Learn more here.</a>
On average, 30,000 websites are hacked every day.* Cyberattacks in the US increased by 57% in 2022.** Bad actors who want to hack your site, steal your data, and cripple your business are a 24/7/365 threat.
You need a proactive, strategic approach to WordPress website security that protects your site from brute force attacks, malware infections, and other cyber threats.
<a href="https://go.solidwp.com/solid-security-pro" rel="nofollow ugc">Solid Security</a> shields your site from cyberattacks and prevents security vulnerabilities. It automatically locks out bad users identified by our Brute Force Protection Network that is nearly 1 million sites strong and leverages your own blacklist. It secures and protects your most commonly attacked part of your WordPress website – user login authentication.
With Patchstack integration (Pro) protects your site before you even have a chance to address vulnerabilities and before a plugin or theme vendor or developer can even issue a patch.
That’s 24/7/365 always-on truly Solid Security.
<iframe loading="lazy" title="Welcome to Solid Security, Part of the SolidWP Suite" src="https://player.vimeo.com/video/863249227?dnt=1&app_id=122963" width="750" height="422" frameborder="0" allow="autoplay; fullscreen; picture-in-picture; clipboard-write"></iframe>
<h4>🌐 Secure your Website in Minutes</h4>
The Solid Security setup and onboarding experience allows anyone to secure their WordPress website in under 10 minutes, regardless of technical acumen. Knowing that you have enabled all the right security settings for your website will leave you feeling like your site has never been more secure.
<h4>📚 Security Site Templates to Fit Your Type of Site</h4>
Enabling the correct security settings based on the type of website you are building or maintaining is essential for proper security. An eCommerce site requires a different level of security than a basic blog. Solid Security Site Templates make it quick and easy to apply the right security settings for your website.
Choose from six different site templates to apply the type of security your site needs:
<ol>
<li>Ecommerce – websites that sell products or services</li>
<li>Network – websites that connect people or communities</li>
<li>Non-Profit – websites that promote your cause and collect donations</li>
<li>Blog – websites that share your thoughts or start a conversation</li>
<li>Portfolio – websites that showcase your craft</li>
<li>Brochure – simple websites that promote your business</li>
</ol>
<h4>⌚ Real-Time Website Security Dashboard</h4>
Every day, lots of activity is happening on your website that you can’t see. Many of these activities can be related to your site’s security, so monitoring these events is vital to keeping your site secure.
The <a href="https://go.solidwp.com/solid-security-pro" rel="nofollow ugc">Solid Security Pro</a> plugin provides a real-time WordPress security dashboard that monitors security-related events on your site around the clock. The Solid Security Dashboard is a dynamic dashboard with all your WordPress website’s security activity stats in one place, including brute force attacks, banned users, active lockouts, site scan results, and user security stats (Pro).
<h4>🗝️ WordPress Login Security</h4>
Setting up and maintaining proper WordPress configurations and managing user account access are essential aspects of hardening your site against threats and vulnerabilities. Basic and Pro include features that address both of these factors.
<ul>
<li>
Two Factor Authentication (2FA) – Make your WordPress login nearly impenetrable to attack by requiring users to enter a security code along with a password to login. The Solid Security plugin allows you to add two-factor authentication to your WordPress login with several authentication methods, including mobile apps like Authy and Google Authenticator, email, and backup codes.
</li>
<li>
Password Requirements – Create and enforce a password policy for your users in less than a minute.
</li>
<li>
reCAPTCHA (Pro) – Stop bad bots from engaging in abusive activities on your website, such as attempting to break into your website using compromised passwords, posting spam, or even scraping your content.
</li>
<li>
Passwordless Logins (Pro) – WordPress security made easy. Secure your user accounts with 2fa & strong passwords while allowing real users login with a click of a mouse.
</li>
<li>
Trusted Devices (Pro) – Identify the devices you and other users use to block session hijacking attacks and limit Administrator privileges to Trusted Devices.
</li>
<li>
Automated Vulnerability Patching (Pro) – Solid Security Pro includes Patchstack which patches vulnerabilities before you have a chance to and applies fixes even before a plugin developer or vendor has issued a patch.
</li>
</ul>

<h4>👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 The Right Amount of Security for Every User Level</h4>
Different types of user levels require different levels of security. During the Solid Security setup process, you can identify your website’s key user groups. Once the different types of users are identified, you can apply the level of security that is just right for each user group.
Here are a couple of examples of how User Groups are useful for securing your site:
<ul>
<li>
For Clients – Let’s say you are configuring Solid Security on a client’s website. You will decide whether or not they are required to use two-factor authentication and if they should have access to the Solid Security settings.
</li>
<li>
For Customers – If you have an eCommerce website, you will decide whether or not you want to protect customer accounts with a password policy.
</li>
</ul>
Privilege Escalation (Pro) also adds a safe, secure way to grant temporary admin-level access to your website.
<h4>🤖 Block Bad Bots & Ban User Agents with Lockouts</h4>
<ul>
<li>
Ban Users (Basic and Pro) – Permanently block repeat offenders from accessing your site. 
Local Brute Force Protection – Automatically identify and stop the most common method of attack on WordPress sites.
</li>
<li>
Local Brute Force Protection (Basic and Pro) – Automatically identify and stop the most common method of attack on WordPress sites.
</li>
<li>
Network Brute Force Protection (Basic and Pro) – The network is the Solid Security community and is nearly one million websites strong. If someone tries to break into websites in the Solid Security community, Solid Security will block them across the network.
</li>
<li>
Magic Links (Pro) – Security shouldn’t get in your way. Magic Links allow you to log in to your WordPress site while your username is locked out by the Solid Security Local Brute Force Protection feature.
</li>
</ul>
<h4>🔍 Monitor Your Site’s Security Health</h4>
<ul>
<li>
File Change Detection (Basic and Pro) – Solid Security logs changes made to your website that can help detect malicious activity on your website.
</li>
<li>
Site Scanner (Basic and Pro) – Schedule checks to run four times per day (Basic) or hourly (Pro) for known vulnerabilities of WordPress core file, plugins and themes. Using the Google Safe Browsing API, the Site Scan also checks your Google’s blocklist status and will alert you if Google has found any malware on your website.
</li>
<li>
Patchstack integration (Pro) – Automated virtual patching of some vulnerabilities before you even have a chance to address them yourself, and before a plugin or theme vendor or developer can even issue a patch.
</li>
<li>
Site Scanner (Pro) – Unlock Version Management to automatically apply a patch to vulnerable software detected by the Site Scan when one is available.
</li>
<li>
User Logging (Pro) – Keep a record of user activity in your WordPress security logs, including login/logout, user registration, adding/removing plugins, switching themes, changes to posts and pages, and more.
</li>
<li>
Version Management (Pro) – The Version Management feature in Solid Security Pro allows you to auto-update WordPress, plugins, and themes. Beyond that, Version Management also has options to harden your website when you are running outdated software and scan for old websites.
</li>
</ul>
<h4>🧠 Smarter, More Actionable Vulnerability Prioritization</h4>
Not all vulnerabilities pose the same level of risk, and the traditional Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) score doesn’t always reflect the realities of running a WordPress site.
Solid Security now uses the Patchstack Priority score, which goes beyond CVSS to provide a real-world risk assessment tailored to WordPress. It factors in how likely a vulnerability is to be exploited and its actual impact on your site.
With Patchstack Priority, you get a clearer picture of what really matters, helping you focus on the vulnerabilities that pose the greatest risk, and worry less about noise from low-impact issues.
<h4>🛠️ Website Security Utilities</h4>
<ul>
<li>
Enforce SSL – Force all connections to the website to be made over SSL/TLS.
</li>
<li>
Database Backups – Create backups of your WordPress database. (Not a complete backup.)
</li>
<li>
Geolocation (Pro) – Improve Trusted Devices by connecting to an external location or mapping API.
</li>
</ul>
<h4>🚀 Advanced Security Tools</h4>
<ul>
<li>Identify Server IPs – Prevent issues caused by inadvertently locking out your server IPs.</li>
<li>Change User ID 1 – Change the user ID for the first WordPress user, potentially preventing attacks that assume the user with ID1 exists and is an administrator.</li>
<li>Change Database Prefix – Change the database prefix that WordPress uses, potentially preventing attacks that assume the database prefix is “wp_”.</li>
<li>Check File Permission – See the file and directory permissions of key areas of your site.</li>
<li>Server Config Rules – View or flush the server security rules generated by Solid Security.</li>
<li>wp-config.php Rules – View or flush the wp-config.php security rules generated by Solid Security.</li>

</ul>

Solid Security – Password, Two Factor Authentication, and Brute Force Protection

The Best WordPress Security Plugin to Secure & Protect WordPress


When paired with Cloudflare for added security, this plugin is nice and lightweight. It's secure enough when you already have other security measures on your website and good hosting.



I do wish they had an option to disable reporting vulnerable software every time a plugin was one miner version behind on updates, especially since I have an auto update plugin on my website.



Other than that, if you have good and secure hosting, and are using a cloudflare dns, this is a good and lightweight plugin. (note: I'm also using nginx instead of apache).


Decent Plugin When Paired With Cloudflare


My experience was when testing this plugin on behalf of some of my customer's complaints.



Right after installing it, some dynamic images stopped working due to modifications this plugin makes to .htaccess file.



Such modifications are registered as being part of iThemes Security which makes it even harder to identify.



Because most of my customers don't even use git or any version control system, it gets even harder to identify such changes.



Also, by deactivating or even removing the plugin (using wp-cli or via panel) will not undo those intrusive changes.



Same goes to changes made in wp-config.php disallowinging file editing, regardless you configure the plugin to not alter your wp-config.php file.


Inadivertly changes .htaccess configuration


This plugin makes website protection simple with real-time monitoring and automatic blocking that works quietly in the background. I feel more confident knowing threats are stopped before they cause damage. The cost of the premium plan could be a hurdle for smaller projects but the features are impressive.
