Table of Contents

WP Ghost is a hack-prevention security solution for your WordPress site. Together with the Shield Security plugin, it will boost your website security by stopping hacker bot attacks, spammers, and viruses and preventing data loss.

Advantages

  • Both plugins have complementary features that will boost your website security.
  • Both plugins load fast and work with SEO and Cache plugins.
  • Both plugins work on all server types (Apache, Nginx, IIS, LiteSpeed, etc).
  • WP Ghost is a hack-prevention security and prevents hacker bots from accessing vulnerable files, plugins, and themes.
  • Shield Security works like a firewall against hackers and malicious bots of all types and more.

HMWP Ghost will complement the Shield Security plugin by offering an extra layer of protection that the other doesn’t provide.

Shield Security

It gives you a toolkit with everything you need to expertly secure your site without being a security expert.

Instead, Shield does most of the heavy lifting for you so you can get back to focusing on the work you love to do.

WP Ghost

WP Ghost prevents attacks and spamming by adding multiple layers of security, a powerful firewall, hiding and securing the WP core paths and files, themes, and plugins.

It also prevents SQL and Script injections and Brute Force attacks.
