SolidWP Solid Security Pro (ex iThemes Security Pro)

Description

Solid Security Pro / iThemes Security Pro protects WordPress sites by automatically blocking malicious IPs, providing two-factor authentication via app or email, and scanning core files for suspicious changes. Designed for those who manage institutional websites, WooCommerce stores, and portals with member areas, the plugin centralizes server hardening, activity logging, and responses to intrusion attempts directly in the dashboard.

Key Features

• Two-factor authentication
  Adds a second factor via an authenticator app, email, or backup codes during login.
• Brute-force protection
  Identifies repeated login attempts and automatically bans offending IPs.
• File integrity scanning
  Compares WordPress files with the official repository and flags unexpected modifications.
• User activity logging
  Records administrator actions, content edits, and logins in an auditable log.
• Privacy and hardening mode
  Strengthens file permissions, hides the WP version, and disables sensitive endpoints with just a few clicks.

Benefits of Solid Security Pro / iThemes Security Pro

• Fewer intrusions caused by weak passwords
  The combination of 2FA and IP blocking reduces the window of opportunity for automated bot attacks.
• Rapid compromise detection
  Email alerts notify you about modified files before the issue escalates.
• Compliance-ready auditing
  A history of who did what makes reviews easier for teams with multiple administrators.
• Guided configuration
  The plugin wizard applies best practices without requiring manual edits to wp-config or .htaccess.

Who Is It For?

• WordPress site administrators who need to strengthen security without hiring an external service.
• Agencies that maintain multiple client websites and require a consistent protection standard.
• WooCommerce stores, membership portals, and high-traffic blogs that face frequent intrusion attempts.

Designed for those who need a robust layer of defense without building a security stack from scratch, the plugin provides real-time blocking, stronger authentication, and continuous auditing within the WordPress admin area itself. The combination of detection, prevention, and logging covers the entire protection cycle, from an attempted attack to an investigated incident, allowing administrators to focus on content and operations.
