MVIS Security Center is a WordPress plugin that identifies security problems in your website and helps you lock down your WordPress installation in three simple steps. The plugin covers most of the hardening tips of the WordPress Security Codex and includes a lot of additional security checks. It was designed to clearly show at a single glance what security problems exist in your website and to provide you with all the information needed to understand these issues and eliminate them.<\/p>\n\n

MVIS stands for Managed Vulnerability Information Service and is an enterprise grade service provided for our customers around the world. \nOur security experts gather all security vulnerabilities that are disclosed publicly (more than 7000 each year!), pre-filter them to eliminate false positives and thoroughly analyse them for validity, criticality, impact and other relevant criteria. This information is stored in our central database and allows us to give you detailed information about security vulnerabilities in a given software version.<\/p>\n\n

MVIS PROtection is a subscription to SEC Consult's Managed Vulnerability Information Service that was specifically created for WordPress. The MVIS Security Center plugin tracks exactly which WordPress version or which of the thousands plugins and themes are installed on your website. As soon as vulnerabilities in any of these components that directly threaten your website are disclosed online, you will receive an e-mail alert telling you the specifics of the threat and the information needed to eliminate the security issues immediately. So you can react well before attackers get a chance to exploit these flaws in your website.<\/p>\n\n
