Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Site Lockdown Security

Site Lockdown Security helps you identify leftover folders, suspicious files, unexpected file changes, weak security settings, risky permissions, and WordPress core file issues. It gives administrators better visibility into what exists on the server and what may need review.
No. Site Lockdown Security is built to help you review and take informed action. Files and folders are shown with action buttons so you can decide whether to view, download, ignore, include, delete, approve, refresh, or lock them.
Site Lock makes protected files and folders read-only to help prevent unauthorized changes. You can unlock the site when updates or maintenance are needed, then lock it again when finished.
Watch Dog File Change Monitor creates a trusted baseline of your site files. Future scans compare the current site against that baseline and report new, modified, or deleted files.
Watch Dog Core Check compares your installed WordPress core files against the official WordPress.org checksum API. It helps detect modified, missing, unreadable, or unexpected files in WordPress core areas.
No. Core Check only verifies WordPress core files in the WordPress root, wp-admin, and wp-includes areas. Plugins, themes, uploads, and custom content are handled by other Site Lockdown Security tools.
Yes. Watch Dog stores baseline and scan data in its protected uploads storage folder, and Site Lockdown Security allows that required Watch Dog path to remain writable while Site Lock is active.
Watch Dog stores protected baseline data under wp-content/uploads/site-lock/watch-dog/. This keeps baseline data outside the plugin folder so it is not removed during plugin updates. Sites updating from older versions automatically migrate baseline storage from the previous wp-content/uploads/guard-dog/watch-dog/ location.
Yes. File Change Monitor and Core Check each include email alert settings. Emails are sent only when the related scan finds issues.
Yes. Individual email alert settings include preview tools so you can review how each notification type will look. Preview layouts are available for plugin update alerts, security snapshot digests, scheduled infection scans, automated security reports, file change notifications, core change notifications, software health alerts, and risk review alerts.
