    Hi

    My WordPress site and it’s plugins are up-to-date but yet it gets hacked like everyday… and my domain is not even in the open yet… I am using a temporary domain for testing.

    What is the best plugin to secure my site? I need a kind of firewall which blocks malicious requests and checks for all file-uploads. My site gets hacked a lot by people using web-shells.

    All uploads made on the site should be scanned to check if it is a malicious web-shell or not.

    Tip: Do never ever share your site domain on this forum. The hackers scrape it here to test it for hacking.

    Hi there,

    It looks like you’re in the wrong forum. It appears that you’re using the open-source WordPress software and therefore you need to seek help at these forums:

    https://wordpress.org/support/forums/

    These forums are for WordPress.com hosted sites only. If you want to know more about the differences between WordPress.com and the WordPress software you can read this document:

    WordPress.com vs. WordPress.org

    Hello there,

    Because of all the hacking attempts, all the malicious activity
    that went on every day on my WP.org site, I had no choice other to go for Wordfence Premium plugin.

    Still, in the end, I couldn’t take it anymore and moved to WP.com.
