## Description

SIWECOS is a free security scanning service trying to help website owners making
there site more secure. In order to do so, SIWECOS utilizes a total of 5 scanners
checking several different areas of your site.:
 – HTTP-Header Scanner: ensuring
that your server tells the browser to enable additional security features – TLS 
Scanner: checks your HTTPS encryption for known issues, broken chains-of-trust, 
outdated certificates etc – Info Leak Scanner: checks if your sites exposes security
relevant information (used WordPress version, plaintext emails) – DOMXSS Scanner:
verifies that your site is protected against so called DOMXSS attacks – Initiative-
S Scanner: utilizes the scanning technology of the free Initative-S.de service to
check for malware in your websites source code

This plugin makes it much easier to use WordPress with SIWECOS by providing two 
main features:
 – Easier onboarding: the verification handshake with SIWECOS is 
automated by the plugin, no need to upload specially named files – Direct access
to results: you\’ll get access to your current SIWECOS score right from the backend
of your WordPress site

Please note:
 The actual scanning functionality is done by siwecos.de, this plugin
retrieves result data from this service – the plugin itself is not able to work 
without the data fetched from the service. You can find the service’s general terms
and conditions here: https://siwecos.de/en/terms-and-conditions SIWECOS’ privacy
policy is found here: https://international.eco.de/legal-notice/privacy-policy/
