WordPress plugin security that tells you what to fix first.
PluginShield gives you a clean inventory of every plugin version across every site, maps installed versions to known vulnerabilities (CVEs), and prioritizes remediation with clear upgrade guidance.

WordPress plugin security FAQ
Common questions from security teams, agencies, and developers.
What is WordPress plugin security?
WordPress plugin security is the practice of monitoring and managing plugin risk: keeping inventories accurate, tracking known vulnerabilities, removing abandoned plugins, and prioritizing updates based on exploitability and business impact.
How is this different from a basic malware scanner?
Malware scanners look for evidence of compromise. PluginShield is focused on prevention: it tracks plugin versions, maps them to known issues, and helps you fix the risky stuff before it becomes an incident.
Do I need this if I already update plugins regularly?
Regular updates help, but they don't tell you what to fix first across dozens (or hundreds) of sites. PluginShield prioritizes based on vulnerability severity, exploit signals, and which sites matter most.
Can agencies and MSPs use this for multiple clients?
Yes. The product is designed around projects/tenants so you can separate inventories and reporting per client while still getting a single operational view.
What do you monitor besides plugins?
Plugins are the biggest source of WordPress exposure, but PluginShield also considers WordPress core and themes so you can see risk in context.
Is there a REST API for developers?
Yes. The PluginShield API is available on RapidAPI. You can detect plugins on a site, retrieve risk scores, pull CVE data, run static code evaluation, and get a composite assessment verdict — all via simple REST endpoints.
No scare tactics — just inventories, priorities, and a sane path to fewer incidents.
Start with the API, the dashboard, or both.
Pull risk data programmatically, manage it from a UI, or run both together. Pick the access model that fits your team.
