Overall Security Score

Description: A single score that summarizes your site’s security posture based on module signals and detected risks.

How it works: AegisShield combines weighted checks (outdated components, risky settings, lockouts, integrity/malware signals, header posture) into a score and risk label.

How to access / configure:

  1. WP Admin → AegisShield → Dashboard.
  2. Find the “Overall Security Score” card.
  3. Click into the recommended items shown under the score to improve it.

Recommended setting: Treat the score as a trend: focus on fixing the listed high-impact items first (updates, admin hardening, MFA, headers).
