Very satisfied

Overall, I am very satisfied with the program purchased here, which includes virus and malware protection as well as a firewall. It replaces various smaller WordPress plugins, such as hiding the admin area or preventing brute-force attacks. There is even an IP block list. All in all, it is a very well-thought-out program.

Extensive tests are conducted. Often, very good suggestions are made to make the WordPress site more secure. Many of these suggestions can be implemented automatically. If automation is not possible, there are many useful tips and hints on how to apply the security measures manually. Further reading is also recommended.

If you manage many websites, there is a module that can be linked to a second software solution. This module is certainly good and helpful. However, the second program is very extensive and powerful. It is supposed to fulfill many different tasks. For me, this program was too extensive and powerful to manage my sites quickly and effectively.

I do not necessarily see this as a downside, as the developer saved a lot of work by using an established solution.

Wow, where have you been all my life?

I had used WordPress sites for many years until a few months ago when I was severely hacked. I had no idea how bad it could be. I spent hundreds of dollars contracting my web host techs to un-do the hacking, but in the end, I had to start over from scratch because I no longer trusted the website, whether it was "fixed" or not.

From the warnings on the plugin, I know that all green lights do not guarantee not being hacked, but after reading all the explanations at every checkpoint, I feel better knowing the risks involved with the items I could not or chose not to pursue.

The firewall is a fantastic value in itself, and the IP block list is something I genuinely appreciate, given my past experiences.

It's an excellent plugin and a tremendous learning experience in cybersecurity and WordPress internals without burying me under the minutiae (which I did not want to happen). I am so glad I got this plugin.

Good Security Plugin

After I missed this app when it was initially offered, I finally bought it when there was a last call moment. I bought Tier 4, of course because I needed to replace the security plugin on hundreds of our clients.

In terms of convenience, this plugin is very good. Support is also okay, responsive. There are only a few shortcomings in my opinion from the agency business side. ๐“๐ก๐ข๐ฌ ๐ฉ๐ฅ๐ฎ๐ ๐ข๐ง ๐ฎ๐ฌ๐ž๐ฌ ๐ญ๐ก๐ž ๐ฌ๐š๐ฆ๐ž ๐ฅ๐ข๐œ๐ž๐ง๐ฌ๐ž ๐ง๐ฎ๐ฆ๐›๐ž๐ซ ๐Ÿ๐จ๐ซ ๐š๐ฅ๐ฅ ๐œ๐ฅ๐ข๐ž๐ง๐ญ๐ฌ. This is certainly a bit annoying. First, my company handles several clients and has several employees for that. So when there is a new client, we assign a technical officer to do the installation. And if they hold the same license, it is possible that they will use it for another party or sell it elsewhere. Of course I can deactivate it through the dashboard, but imagine if the same serial number is installed on hundreds of websites that are not our clients, and will continue to grow due to information leaks, this is dangerous.

Maybe a suggestion, like the WPVivid backup plugin that I also hold the Agency license for. They generate a new license number every time we need to install it on a client. One number for one website. And it will be locked in pairs with the domain after installation. So one license number cannot be used for more than one installation.

Overall, I am quite satisfied with WP Security Ninja and hope that in the future new features can be added that are useful for ensuring the security of our website.

Thank you so much for your thoughtful review!

We're thrilled to hear that you're satisfied with WP Security Ninja and found the plugin convenient and responsive to your needs. Your feedback about the license management system is highly appreciated, and we understand how using a single license across multiple clients might be a challenge, especially for agencies handling large portfolios.

Thank...

Didn't Detect Active Malware

It's as simple as that. I installed this on a site with active malware and ran the malware scan, but it didn't detect it. This is probably not what you want to see in a WordPress Security product.
