Proactive Security Assessment

Find out exactly how vulnerable your WordPress site is — before an attacker does it for you.

A WordPress security audit is not a scan. It is a structured investigation of every layer of your site's security posture: plugin vulnerabilities, authentication controls, hosting configuration, file permissions, and database exposure. The result is a prioritized list of what to fix, and in what order.

Case Study: The Audit That Found 23 Vulnerabilities on a "Secure" Site

SymptomA financial services firm requested a security audit after their industry association recommended it. They had Wordfence installed and had never experienced a security incident. They expected to receive a clean report.
Resolution23 separate security findings, including four plugins with documented CVEs (known vulnerabilities with public exploit code), an exposed xmlrpc.php endpoint processing over 3,000 login attempts per day, three stale admin accounts from previous contractors, and a PHP version with no active security support.
Business Impact
We delivered a prioritized remediation report. The four critical plugin vulnerabilities and the xmlrpc exposure were addressed immediately. The stale accounts were removed. PHP was upgraded. The routine brute force attempts against xmlrpc dropped to zero within 24 hours of disabling the endpoint. No security incident has occurred in the 18 months since the audit.

Common questions

Questions answered.

How is an audit different from running a security scanner?

Scanners check for known malware signatures and obvious misconfigurations. An audit involves human review of your specific setup, investigating access logs, reviewing plugin code quality, assessing your actual risk exposure across multiple layers simultaneously.

How long does a security audit take?

A standard WordPress security audit takes 4–8 hours of investigation and reporting. We deliver the written report within 48 hours of completing the investigation.

Do you fix the issues you find, or just report them?

We deliver the audit report with a prioritized remediation list. We can implement the fixes ourselves (recommended), or you can share the report with your existing developer. Either way, you have a clear, documented list of what needs to be done.

How often should I have a security audit done?

For most business websites, annually is appropriate. For sites handling payment data, personal information, or high-value assets, bi-annually or quarterly is advisable.
