What problem does it solve?

Reduces common WordPress attack surface (headers, hardening, login protection) Adds observability (activity logging + login attempts + file integrity baselines) Adds incident-oriented tooling (malware workflows like incremental scan / incidents / profiles / scheduler tabs in UI) Provides safer DB admin utilities (notably DB prefix management with a “don’t forget the internal keys” phase)

Who is it designed for?

WordPress site owners/admins who want practical protection without enterprise infrastructure Agencies managing multiple WordPress sites Security-conscious operators on shared hosting (Hostinger/HostGator/Bluehost-style environments) Technical admins who want visibility (logs, scan results, enforcement actions) and control knobs
