Security Ninja WordPress Plugin

Security Ninja is a plugin available on Themeforest that we recommend – we even wrote a Security Ninja review all about it. The awesome plugin offers numerous security features, plus installation is a snap – just purchase the plugin, upload it to your WordPress installation, activate and begin running tests. Depending on your site, the test can take a few seconds to a few minutes. Once it’s done you’ll get a results page with the status of each test:

From there you can click on the Details tab to find a description of each test, and advice on what to do if you received a “bad” result.

You can also get the Core Scanner add-on for Security Ninja. This is a great add-on for scanning core files, locating problem files, restoring files, and more.
