Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Maroon Horizon Smart Firewall – Malware Scanner & IP Blocking

Most FREE features run locally and do not require third-party services. The only outbound requests made by this WordPress.org (FREE) build are disclosed in the "External Services" section above (for example, the optional Core Integrity Scan checksums request and optional Freemius opt-in).

No. Malware scans run locally on your server. The plugin reports findings inside the WordPress admin.

The firewall settings and hardening toggles are lightweight. Malware scans do work on the server, so it’s best to run scans during low-traffic periods on shared hosting.

The FREE scanner targets uploads and theme directories using local pattern detection. Findings are reported in the admin UI and can be quarantined.

Security scanning is conservative by design. Review findings before taking action, and use restore from quarantine if needed.

PRO functionality is provided by a separate commercial plugin (not included in this WordPress.org build). Licensing and delivery are handled by Freemius. Learn more: https://mh.ie/maroon-horizon-smart-firewall/
