To complement WP Ghost, we recommend using a security plugin that focuses on monitoring, detection, and cleanup, such as one with a strong firewall, malware scanning, and real-time threat detection capabilities.
WP Ghost proactively prevents attacks by hiding vulnerabilities, while a monitoring-focused plugin can detect and respond to active threats, ensuring a well-rounded security stack. This combination provides both a defensive shield to stop hackers and tools to address issues if they arise, maximizing your website’s protection.
Using WP Ghost is a hack prevention method not a cure method. So we recommend using WP Ghost alongside other security plugins that focus on that for increased protection.
We have many clients using WP Ghost alongside tools such as:
- Solid Security – WP Ghost and Solid Security
- WP Cerber Security – WP Ghost and WP Cerber Security
- Sucuri Security – WP Ghost and Sucuri Security
- Wordfence – WP Ghost and Wordfence Security
Conclusion
If your hosting company offers file cleaners/malware removal, you may not need to pair WP Ghost with another security plugin. Otherwise, we recommend that you use it together with other security plugins.
