Solve my security problem
by ealfred88·2 months ago

Solve my security problem cloaking, malicious database injections, that the Wordfence wasn’t able to remove.

A Must for Website Security
by dsitechmktg·2 years ago

I’m really glad I set up this plugin because I was able to track suspicious logins and other security threats

Слетел CSS после установки плагина
by irinasaratov2·2 years ago

Плагин сразу нашел вирус, который был у меня на сайте, чем очень мне помог, т.к. другие плагины его не видели. Но плагин сломал мне админку Вордпресса, я теперь по сути не могу управлять своим сайтом, т.к. кнопки в админке не работают, все плагины отображаются косо и криво (слетели CSS стили). Что мне делать, чтобы восcтановить CSS?

The worst
by richinberlin99·2 years ago

Does not protect
Does not detect.
Paid service, does nothing, and does not fix.

Absolute waste of time and money.

Look elsewhere
