WordPress site security: When WordPress site login page and wp-admin page have been attacked by login, site admin becomes very worried. Is my WordPress site safe? What is needed to be done is to strengthen the site security? For this reason, use Sucuri- which can help remove many malicious security threats. In this article, 5 reasons for using Sucuri to improve the security of the WordPress site will be stated.

1. Ability to monitor the whole site

Unlike some other free security scanning plug-ins that require manual permission, the site malware and black hat warning feature will automatically detect the site every 3 hours to discover malware, malicious java scripts, malicious iframes, malicious redirects, and spam comments. This will ensure that site does not allow Google, Norton, AVG, phish tank, Opera, and other search engines to access warnings. This means that the site will not display a “Warning Something is Not Right Here” prompt box.

If such a prompt appears on a site, users will be lost in large numbers. And Sucuri can ensure that such a prompt does not appear.

2. Able to scan on the server-side

The above site detection is released on the client. But for a smart hacker, no malware or code will be injected. Suppose an admin is doing some affiliate link sites such as Taobao. Hackers may quietly modify the Taobao guest link account and change it to theirs. Then income will quietly flow into their pockets. In order to ensure that this does not happen, Sucuri is needed to perform a server-side scan to ensure no one changes the settings. Once there is this change, Sucuri will notify site admin. In order to test the effect, upload a php file to see.

3. Ability to review WordPress files

The Sucuri developer is a WordPress enthusiast just like. And is familiar with WordPress and understand the needs of users. However, whether you are an initial user or an experienced user, you need to know what is happening on the site, such as file changes and new articles. Sucuri can review all of these. Often hackers use backdoor files similar to WordPress file names for confusion. For example, adding a wp-user.old.php file or other files that are not easily suspected in wp-includes folder. If there is a malicious file in it, Sucuri will immediately issue a warning.

Similarly, if something else is hidden in the wp-config.php file, a warning will also be issued. In addition, the plug-in can also monitor file installation, once there are differences, it will stop the installation.

4. Can set different warnings

An important part about monitoring is the warning, which allows admin to easily know what happened. Sucuri allows admin to configure email alerts, twitter alerts, IM alerts, SMS alerts, and RSS alerts. This is very wonderful.

In addition to malware and black hat link monitoring, DNS changes and whois changes can also be detected. This prevents the domain name from being stolen.

5. Provide malware removal service

For problems found, the software does not have the ability to clear the province. But for developers, they provide paid malware removal services. If the user does not have the ability to clear, once the attack occurs, the developer’s service can still be considered.
