No one security solution is enough. While I also like Sucuri, it's Malware scanner tool missed a handful of infections on a recent clean up job. Microsoft Security (or whatever they're calling it now) actually found more (once I downloaded the site's files via FTP)
Moral of the story, don't rely on just a plugin, or a tutorial for your WP security.

- dotBen 11y ago(going to give context for his ask + big up @perezbox here -- he's the CEO of the awesome Sucuri) @perezbox - you might want to mention that in your HN Profile. :)
- josefresco 11y agoI do have a recent example - worked out the issues with WPEngine, but it took quite a few scans. I believe they work with you, so you're probably already aware. Prior to being hosted with WPE, we used the Sucuri plugin but all scans were clean.
