 * you say in the plugin “The free version includes up to 48-hour early warning 
   for new vulnerabilities found by our security research community. It also allows
   you to automatically update vulnerable software, manage updates remotely, and
   get snapshot reports on your sites’ security status.”

 * Hi [@rtdev](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rtdev/) !
 * We apologize for the confusion here. The auto-update feature was deprecated recently,
   and we’re currently in the process of updating our documentation and other references
   that still mention this functionality.
 * We appreciate you bringing this to our attention.
