Introducing: Smart Security Alerts

Your WordPress site’s security is our top priority, which is why we’re thrilled to launch Security Alerts. This feature provides you with the tools and insights needed to proactively manage vulnerabilities in your plugins, themes, and core components.

Until now, keeping track of potential security risks often required manual effort or external tools. With WPScan’s vulnerability database now integrated into the MyPressable Control Panel, you can effortlessly monitor your sites for security issues and take immediate action.

When accessing the MyPressable Control Panel, you’ll see a comprehensive list of all plugins and themes installed on your sites. Any vulnerabilities are flagged with a Security Issues indicator. Clicking this opens a detailed panel showing the nature of the vulnerability and recommended actions. If a fix is available, you’ll see an Update button to resolve the issue with a single click.

Security Alerts also centralize your site management efforts. A dashboard in the Tools menu provides an overview of all security risks across your sites, complete with options for bulk updates. Vulnerability data is refreshed weekly and supplemented by real-time updates from WPScan’s webhooks. Additionally, plugin and theme lists are updated nightly, ensuring you always have up-to-date information. For teams, collaborators with Manage WordPress permissions can access and manage Security Alerts, helping to distribute security responsibilities effectively.

To get started, head to the Tools menu in your MyPressable control panel. For a step-by-step guide, visit our Knowledge Base: Keep Your Sites Secure with Security Alerts.
