Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Assist Security

No. The writer refuses to modify your configuration file unless all eight keys are found, verifies the result before and after an atomic swap, and rolls back automatically if anything is wrong. If a rotation cannot complete safely, your original file is left untouched.

That is the point. Invalidating existing cookies is what makes rotation a security measure. Session tokens are cleared as well.

They are generated on your own server with PHP's cryptographically secure random number generator. The plugin makes no external requests.

No. Key values are never displayed, logged, exported, or transmitted. The health check reads each constant only long enough to decide whether it is missing, weak, or duplicated, and reports that verdict alone.

Yes. The plugin checks wp-salt.php, wp-config.php, and the parent directory automatically. You can also point it anywhere: add_filter( 'assist_security_config_file', function () { return '/path/to/wp-salt.php'; } );

Yes. On multisite, only network administrators (manage_network_options) can manage the plugin.

Every one to three months suits most sites. Rotate immediately if you suspect a leak, after removing an administrator, or after restoring from a backup of unknown origin. The Site Health test reminds you once your keys pass 180 days.

Settings in a single option, and rotation records in its own database table. IP addresses are recorded only if you enable that option. Everything is removed on uninstall only if you opt in first, on the Tools tab.
