Welcome to PowerSEC

Updated August 26, 2026 110 views 0 found this helpful

PowerSEC is an all-in-one WordPress security platform that protects your sites from malware, vulnerabilities, brute-force attacks, and downtime — without you needing to become a security expert.

What PowerSEC does for your sites

  • Scheduled threat detection — regular scanning for malware, suspicious files, and intrusions, plus live login + WAF protection
  • Vulnerability monitoring — automatic alerts when your themes/plugins have known CVEs
  • Web Application Firewall (WAF) — blocks common attacks before they reach your site
  • Brute-force protection — stops password-guessing attacks on /wp-login.php
  • Incremental backups — point-in-time recovery, including after a ransomware incident
  • One central dashboard — manage all your WordPress sites from powersec.io

How it works

  1. Install the PowerSEC plugin on each WordPress site you want to protect
  2. Connect each site to your PowerSEC Central account (a one-click pairing)
  3. Watch the dashboard — every site streams security data to Central in real time
  4. Get alerts by email or in the app when anything needs your attention
