Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about SiteCare – Vulnerability Scanner

Yes. It runs a background scan once a day (configurable) and an immediate re-scan whenever you install, update or activate a plugin or theme. You can also press "Scan now" any time.

Yes, if email alerts are enabled (they are by default). You are notified only about new vulnerabilities, never repeatedly about the same one. You can turn this off under Vulnerabilities → Settings.

It compares your installed version against the affected version ranges published for each known vulnerability - so it catches issues even when you are several versions behind, not only on an exact-version match.

No. Only the public slug and version of each plugin, theme and WordPress core are looked up against the WP Vulnerability API. No site content, credentials or personal data ever leave your server.

No. Lookups are cached and scans run in the background via WP-Cron, so your admin stays fast.

A single A-F grade (0-100) that summarises the health of your whole site - lower when you have open vulnerabilities or abandoned components, higher when everything is up to date. Each scan also shows whether the score went up or down since last time.

The plugin checks each installed component against the WordPress.org directory. If a plugin has been closed (removed) or has had no update for a very long time, it is flagged so you can plan a replacement. Premium or off-directory plugins are not falsely flagged.

Yes. Paste a Slack or Discord webhook URL under Vulnerabilities → Settings and new findings are posted there.

Yes: wp vulnerability scan and wp vulnerability status. It returns a non-zero exit code when vulnerabilities are found, so you can use it in CI.

Yes, via Buy Me a Coffee.
