Genisoft Security Connector

外掛說明

Genisoft Security Connector is the official plugin for WP Security (by Genisoft) — a remote security audit and malware detection service for WordPress.

This plugin is a lightweight connector: it performs no analysis itself. It exposes a read-only REST API authenticated with HMAC-SHA256 that the WP Security engine calls to audit your site remotely, without SSH or FTP. The heavy analysis (detection of webshells, backdoors, injections, obfuscated code, WordPress core integrity checks against the official api.wordpress.org checksums, and YARA rules) runs on our servers, in an isolated environment — your site stays light and fast.

What the scanner detects:

  • PHP webshells and backdoors
  • Injectors and malicious redirects
  • Obfuscated / encoded code
  • Modified WordPress core files
  • Vulnerable plugins and themes (CVE)
  • Code injected into the database (wp_options, etc.)

Secure by design:

  • HMAC-SHA256 authentication on every request (signature + timestamp; requests older than 5 minutes are rejected). One unique key per site.
  • Read-only: files are read for analysis, never executed (no eval, exec or include on external content).
  • No SSH, no SFTP.

Third-party service

This plugin is a connector: it requires an account on the external WP Security service (https://wordpress.genisoft.fr) to be useful. Each time you start a scan from your WP Security dashboard, the service calls the plugin’s read-only REST API to read the files to analyze. File contents are not stored by the service — only analysis results (metadata) are kept; hosting is in the EU (GDPR).

  3. Go to Settings Genisoft Security and copy your site URL and connection key.
  4. Create an account at wordpress.genisoft.fr, connect your site and run your first scan.

常見問題集

Does the plugin slow down my site?

No. The connector only exposes a read-only API; all the heavy analysis runs on the WP Security servers, not on your hosting.

Do I need a WP Security account?

Yes. The plugin is a connector to the WP Security service; it does not work on its own. Connecting a site and running a discovery scan are free.

Can the plugin modify my files?

No. This connector is strictly read-only: it never executes, modifies, deletes or moves your files.

Are my files sent to a third party?

Only the files needed for analysis are read on demand during a scan. They are not stored — only the results (metadata) are kept, hosted in the EU.
