Here at WPScan we launched our brand new website, which we’re super happy with, and feedback so far has been overwhelmingly positive!

We released three new versions of our WPScan WordPress security scanner, adding the login-uri option to specify the wp-login.php file location.

We also released two new versions of our WordPress security plugin, implementing new features such as the ability to configure the scan time.

(We are not closing any of our other products or services, just the online WPScan.io SaaS!)

WPScan.io started life in 2015 when we contracted a Rails development company to create a SaaS web front end on top of our WPScan CLI tool. Unfortunately, at that time, we only had the budget to complete around 50% of the work, as we were still a community project making hardly any money.

The project sat in this half finished state for three years, until 2018, when we had a little bit more money to hire a freelance Rails developer.

With the most commonly quoted figure being the one published by w3techs, putting WordPress at 37.7% of all websites today (July 2020) and growing. It is no surprise then that WordPress is also the most targeted CMS by hackers.

Despite what some believe, WordPress is a secure CMS, depending on what your definition of “secure” is.
