The web has changed. A flood of AI crawlers, automated bots, and relentless brute-force attacks are hammering websites every day — slowing servers, driving up costs, and probing for a way in. Your current plan keeps WordPress updated. These new plans make your site genuinely hard to break.
You're already on our maintenance plan, so your plugins and WordPress core stay current. But "up to date" is no longer the same as "protected." Here's what changed.
Automated traffic now makes up a huge share of all web requests. They scrape your content, strain your server, and slow your site down for real visitors.
Bots try thousands of username and password combinations against WordPress login pages around the clock, hunting for one weak account.
Outdated or flawed plugins are the #1 way WordPress sites get compromised — and new vulnerabilities are discovered every single week.
Skim the table for the big picture — then scroll down to explore exactly what every line means, in plain English.

Everything in the Basic plan, plus a fully managed, actively-monitored layer of advanced security:
Example rule: the login helper (admin-ajax.php) is limited to 5 requests per minute, with a challenge after that.
Upgrading is simple — there's nothing for you to install or manage. Just reply to your account manager, or reach out below, and we'll handle the rest. Most sites are fully hardened within a few business days.
