VMP Fence Security

VMP Fence detects a comprehensive range of security threats including malware, backdoors, trojans, suspicious file changes, plugin/theme vulnerabilities, compromised user accounts, spam content injection, malicious URLs, exposed configuration files, and various forms of code injection attacks.

VMP Fence uses 11 specialized scanners that each focus on specific security aspects. The Server State Scanner checks configuration, File Changes Scanner monitors file integrity, Malware Scanner detects malicious code, Vulnerability Scanner identifies security flaws, and so on. This modular approach provides comprehensive coverage while maintaining performance.

VMP Fence offers four scan types:

• Limited: Quick scan focusing on critical security checks and core files
• Standard: Balanced scan covering most security aspects with good performance
• High Sensitivity: Deep comprehensive scan with maximum threat detection
• Custom: Fully configurable scan where you can enable/disable individual scanner modules

VMP Fence focuses on detection and detailed reporting of security issues. While it identifies infected files and provides comprehensive analysis, VMP Fence offers repair options that you can execute manually for infected files. The plugin provides safe file restoration capabilities, but repairs require user confirmation to ensure complete and safe remediation.

VMP Fence integrates with Google's Safe Browsing API to check URLs found in your content, posts, and comments against Google's database of known malicious websites, phishing sites, and malware distribution points. This helps identify compromised content early.

No. VMP Fence is designed for optimal performance with background scanning, intelligent resource management, and optimized algorithms. Scans run independently without affecting your website's front-end performance or user experience.

VMP Fence can scan PHP files, JavaScript, CSS, WordPress core files, theme files, plugin files, configuration files, and optionally binary files including images and executables for embedded threats.

VMP Fence includes a flexible scheduling system that can run automatic scans at specified intervals (daily, twice daily, weekdays, weekends, or custom schedules). The scan monitor system ensures scans complete successfully and can automatically recover from interrupted scans.

Yes. VMP Fence provides flexible exclusion options allowing you to exclude specific files, directories, or file patterns from scanning. This is useful for large media directories, custom code, or known safe files that might trigger false positives.

When security issues are detected, VMP Fence provides detailed reports with issue classification, severity ratings, affected files, and remediation recommendations. You can choose to ignore false positives, repair infected files, or take manual action based on the findings.

Yes. VMP Fence is fully compatible with WordPress multisite (network) installations and can scan all sites in your network while providing centralized management and reporting.

VMP Fence provides comprehensive security reporting and activity logging for all scan results and security events. The plugin tracks scan completion, threat discoveries, and security activities through detailed logs accessible via the admin interface.
