Description: Prevents editing plugin/theme files from the WordPress editor to reduce post-compromise abuse.

How it works: Hardening sets the relevant WordPress constant/behavior so attackers can’t use the built-in editor to plant code.

How to access / configure:

1. WP Admin → AegisShield → Hardening.
2. Enable “Disable file editing”.
3. Save changes.

Recommended setting: Enable on production sites; do code changes via SFTP/Git instead.
