Sound familiar?
Hundreds of WordPress sites, no overview
You cannot fix what you cannot list.
Outdated plugins are the top way in
Customers rarely update, and attackers scan daily.
Updates that break sites
Without a snapshot there is no way back.
What it does for your servers
Scan every WordPress install on the server, apply a hardening preset and update with an automatic snapshot to roll back to.

Questions before you buy.
Does it work alongside WordPress Toolkit?
Yes. WP Shield reads installs directly from disk and does not depend on WordPress Toolkit.
Will auto-updates break custom themes?
Each update runs a health check. If the site stops responding, WP Shield restores the snapshot and flags it.
Which cPanel & WHM versions are supported?
cPanel & WHM 11.110 and newer on AlmaLinux 8/9, Rocky Linux 8/9, CloudLinux 8/9 and Ubuntu 22.04. We test every new cPanel release.
How is the license counted?
Per server IP. There are no per-account or per-customer fees, so your costs do not grow when you sell more hosting.
What if the plugin does not fit my setup?
Ask for a refund within 30 days and we return the full amount, no questions asked.
