SiteFort Frequently Asked Questions

SiteFort is a WordPress security plugin from Securewp that combines firewall protection, security hardening, login security, vulnerability monitoring, bot protection, activity logging, and cloud-assisted malware scanning in one interface.

SiteFort generates file hashes locally and checks recognized files against known-good signatures. Files that cannot be verified locally can be securely sent to the Securewp cloud for deeper malware analysis. WordPress posts, comments, WooCommerce orders, customer records, and full database content are not uploaded for malware scanning. See the SiteFort documentation for technical details.

SiteFort is designed for low server impact. Known files are verified locally first, while deeper malware analysis is handled in the Securewp cloud when needed. This reduces the amount of intensive scanning work performed on your WordPress server.

The Free plan includes 10,000 cloud scan credits per month, firewall controls, country blocking, community threat intelligence, 2FA, CAPTCHA, login protection, WordPress security hardening, vulnerability scanning, activity logging, bot controls, and access to the Securewp Console.
