Our verdict on WPSec

WPSec is a cloud-based vulnerability management service for WordPress websites. It checks WordPress core, plugins, and themes against a vulnerability database, then presents findings through dashboards and reports. The service is aimed at individuals, professionals, businesses, and companies managing one or more WordPress sites, with a separate branded option for organizations delivering scanning to their own clients.

The Free plan covers known WordPress core, plugin, and theme vulnerabilities, one WordPress scan location, up to 10 scan reports, and monthly scans. Premium adds daily, weekly, or monthly scanning, attack-surface analysis, plugin risk scoring, CVE matching, PDF and JSON exports, API, webhook, and CLI access, plus email vulnerability notifications. White Label adds a branded scanning solution, unlimited scans and reports, custom design and logo, a custom domain name, and a separate isolated instance. Prices exclude VAT where applicable, and yearly billing is available.

WPSec’s main strength is its focused WordPress scope: owners can manage multiple WordPress websites from one dashboard while receiving remediation guidance and recurring scan results. That focus also defines its boundary. Organizations seeking coverage beyond WordPress, or a broader vulnerability management platform across different technologies, should consider an alternative. WPSec is a sensible fit for WordPress owners who want scheduled checks, reporting, risk scoring, and access through web or developer interfaces; the Free plan suits basic recurring monitoring, while Premium and White Label address deeper analysis, automation, exports, and branded delivery.
