WP Security Scan Plugin Adds Peace Of Mind
If you ever wonder how secure your WordPress installation really is, then this Plugin might fascinate you enough to download it. The WP Security Scan Plugin will give you some great insight into your security zone.
What the Plugin does:
- It scans your WordPress installation for file and directory permission vulnerabilities
- It recommends corrective action
- It also scans for general security vulnerabilities.
Here are some screen shots from the authors page:
The Plugin is designed to work in WordPress versions 2.0 and higher, all the way up to the latest version 2.5. The author is still testing some future releases which will involve more goodies such as:
- .htaccess verification
- doc links
- lock out/log incorrect login attempts
- user enumeration protection
- intrusion detection and prevention
- one click change of file/folder permissions
- test for XSS vulnerabilities
This certainly does look like a helpful Plugin that could tell us a thing or two about our security perimeters on our blogs.
If you want to read more about the WP Security Scan Plugin, click on the link and it will take you to the authors homepage.
To download it straight away, go to WP Security Scan.
