What we look for

Leaked database credentials

Why it matters: If your `wp-config.php.bak` or `.git` folder is publicly readable, any visitor can read your database password and download your entire site.

What we check: wp-config.php.bak, wp-config.php.swp, .git/HEAD, .env, debug.log, error_log, SQL backups in /uploads/.

WordPress version exposure

Why it matters: Attackers match your WordPress version against known CVEs. Hiding the version cuts targeted attacks dramatically.

What we check: readme.html, meta generator tag, RSS feed <generator>, license.txt, CSS/JS ver= query strings.

XML-RPC weapon turret

Why it matters: 99% of sites don't use xmlrpc.php — but if it's enabled, attackers use it as a DDoS reflector against other sites, or to brute-force your password 1000x faster.

What we check: Whether /xmlrpc.php is reachable, whether pingback.ping is enabled (the DDoS hook).

Brute-force-friendly admin

Why it matters: If /wp-admin and /wp-login.php have no rate limit, attackers try millions of credentials per day. A weak admin password is now a question of when, not if.

What we check: Whether the login page is reachable from the open internet, whether there's a WAF in front, whether usernames are enumerable.

Security headers missing

Why it matters: Modern browsers protect against XSS and clickjacking — but only if your site asks them to. Most WordPress sites don't.

What we check: Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, Strict-Transport-Security, Referrer-Policy, Permissions-Policy.

Accessibility / ADA compliance

Why it matters: WCAG complaints can become $5K-$100K legal exposure. Every month brings new ADA-compliance lawsuits against e-commerce sites.

What we check: Missing alt text, contrast ratios, keyboard navigability, heading hierarchy, ARIA landmarks.

Performance / Core Web Vitals

Why it matters: Google ranks slow sites lower. A page that loads in 5 seconds instead of 2 measurably loses traffic and ad revenue.

What we check: Largest Contentful Paint, Cumulative Layout Shift, Time to First Byte, render-blocking assets.

Broken links + dead images

Why it matters: Broken images crater conversion rates. Broken outbound links damage SEO authority.

What we check: Every link (anchor href) and image source on your homepage and the internal pages linked from it — up to 25 pages, breadth-first.

Honest pricing

Pay per scan, not per month. Most owners run a scan after every plugin update or once a quarter — that's how the pricing was designed.

What we DON'T do

Three things we tell you up front — because nothing kills trust faster than discovering hidden limitations after you've paid.

  • !

    We don't remove malware.

    We tell you what's exposed, where, and how to fix it. Cleanup is a manual step. If your site is actively compromised, we'll point you at Sucuri or Wordfence for the cleanup.

  • !

    We don't take backups for you.

    We tell you if you don't have one. UpdraftPlus is free and we'll walk you through setup if needed.

  • !

    We don't block attackers in real time.

    That's a firewall — Wordfence and Cloudflare are good at it. We're the audit that tells you whether your firewall is doing its job.

Ready when you are.
