Korisec Security for WordPress

Hosted vulnerability checks and local login protection. Scans run in Korisec’s cloud — not on your server — with plain-English findings, CVE links, and one-click paths to update plugins and themes.

Free GPLv2 plugin — install from WordPress.org. Cloud checks use your Korisec account (14-day trial, then a paid plan). Source mirror on GitHub. Current release: v1.0.10.

How it works

Three steps, no scanner on your host

Create a Korisec account

Install the plugin

Install Korisec Security from WordPress.org, activate it, then open Korisec in wp-admin.

Paste the key and Connect

Nothing is sent until a site administrator connects. Connecting binds the key to this host and agrees to Korisec’s Terms and Privacy Policy.

What the plugin does

Cloud checks + light local protection

Vulnerability scanner (hosted)

Reports WordPress core, plugin, and theme versions so cloud checks can find known CVEs — including software that is not visible from the public internet.

Actionable findings

See grade, severity, CVE links, and shortcuts to Plugins / Themes / Updates in wp-admin. Full history and PDFs stay in your Korisec account.

Login protection (local)

Limits failed wp-login attempts by IP. Runs on your site only — no Korisec API call — and works even before you connect a key.
