Mar 28, 2025A: Hello,
You can definitely replace Wordfence with WP Security Ninja. Our plugin offers a user-friendly experience with features like webhooks integration, vulnerability management, and 2FA, all designed for easy setup and management.
In terms of performance, security plugins can slightly slow down individual requests due to checks, but WP Security Ninja helps improve overall performance by blocking unwanted traffic (like malicious bots), reducing server load and keeping your site running smoothly.
We also have experience running WP Security Ninja alongside Wordfence with both plugins working together just fine, complementing each other’s strengths.
Let us know if you need more info!
Why would you need/want to run WP Security Ninja alongside Wordfence?
Is WP Security Ninja not a replacement for Wordfence?
Great question! WP Security Ninja and Wordfence share some features, like firewall protection and malware scanning, but WP Security Ninja also offers additional features. If you're happy with Wordfence’s firewall and malware scanning, you can use both plugins together for added security.
yeah I thought of replacing wordfence with WP Security Ninja - why would I ever need to run it at the same time?
