<h3>Security Model</h3>
Silo Scope takes security seriously:
<ul>
<li>API Token Authentication: Remote sites require a valid token (compared via <code>hash_equals</code>)</li>
<li>Domain Allowlist: Only configured domains can request reports</li>
<li>SSRF Prevention: Blocks loopback, private, and reserved IP ranges</li>
<li>No Tracking: No visitor analytics, pixels, or front-end scripts</li>
</ul>
<h3>Data & Privacy</h3>
<ul>
<li>All checks run inside your WordPress installation</li>
<li>HTTP checks are loopback requests to your own site</li>
<li>Report data stored in WordPress options/transients</li>
<li>Remote monitoring requires explicit opt-in via Connection Code</li>
</ul>
<h3>External Services</h3>
This plugin includes an optional feature to fetch policy baseline updates from an external server. This feature is disabled by default and must be explicitly enabled in Plugin Settings.
Remote Policy Baseline (Optional)
When enabled, the plugin fetches health check threshold recommendations from: 
– Service URL: https://baseline.scopefleet.com/policy.v1.json 
– Data sent: No personal or site data is sent. The request is a simple GET request to retrieve a JSON file. 
– When: Only when the “Remote Policy Baseline” option is enabled in Plugin Settings. The data is cached locally for 24 hours. 
– Purpose: Provides updated threshold recommendations for site health metrics (e.g., recommended PHP version, memory limits). 
– Service provider: SILO (silomade.com) 
– Terms of Service: https://silomade.com/terms 
– Privacy Policy: https://silomade.com/privacy
If this feature is not enabled, the plugin uses locally bundled policy defaults and makes no external requests.

Troubleshooting Mode was initially a feature introduced via the Health Check plugin, and is now available as a standalone plugin.
The most common, and reliable, means of troubleshooting a website using WordPress, is by first disabling all plugins, and using one of the default themes that come with the software. 
The best way to do this, is by the use of a staging website, but not all website hosting providers have this feature, or it may not be part of the plan you are currently on.
Troubleshooting Mode will do its best to allow a site maintainer to disable plugins, and switch themes, without affecting regular visitors to your website.
