 * The Sucuri plugin stores its data in text plain files inside this directory [
   1] _(by default)_ unless the administrator changed the datastore path from the
   settings page. The only thing that is touched by the plugin in the database is
   the _“wp\_options”_ table to store its settings, and there is around sixty entries
   that could be there, this entries are listed in the uninstall script [2] and 
   as you can read in the code they are deleted, as well as the log files, once 
   you deactivate the trigger the uninstallation process from the WordPress plugins
   manager.
 * In short, you do not need to delete database tables because this plugin does 
   not creates any, you can simply follow the instructions that WordPress provides
   to uninstall a regular plugin [3].
