Solid Security Pro

Patchstack virtual patching provides real-time, automated protection against known vulnerabilities in WordPress core, plugins, and themes without requiring manual patches. When a vulnerability is discovered and disclosed, hackers immediately begin exploiting it. Patchstack blocks exploitation attempts while you wait days or weeks for official patches to become available and tested. This eliminates the dangerous vulnerability window that exists between disclosure and patch availability, reducing your site's attack surface to nearly zero. It's the single most important security feature in Solid Security Pro.

No, Solid Security Pro is designed to have minimal performance impact. The plugin uses SolidWP's cloud infrastructure for many functions (like Patchstack processing), so heavy lifting doesn't happen on your hosting server. The plugin operates efficiently at the WordPress application level, and features like file scanning can be scheduled during off-peak hours. Most users report no measurable performance degradation. If you experience any issues, SolidWP's 30-day money-back guarantee applies to annual plans.

Solid Security Pro maintains a network of nearly one million WordPress sites protected by SolidWP. When an IP address launches brute force attacks against any site in the network, that IP is identified and shared. Solid Security automatically blocks IPs flagged as bad by the network, even before they attack your site. This community-powered approach provides real-time intelligence about attackers. You can also create your own local blacklist of IPs to block. This two-layer approach (network-wide + local) provides powerful brute force protection with no false positives affecting legitimate users.

Solid Central is SolidWP's multi-site management hub that allows you to manage 1 to 100+ WordPress sites from a single dashboard. While not required for Solid Security Pro to work, Central integrates seamlessly to monitor security status, manage Solid Backups, perform bulk plugin/theme updates, monitor uptime, and view centralized activity logs across all your sites. It's invaluable for agencies, freelancers, and enterprise users managing multiple WordPress installations. Solid Central is available separately or bundled in the Solid Suite package.

Solid Security Pro includes a 30-day money-back guarantee for annual plans purchased directly from SolidWP. If you're unsatisfied for any reason, you can request a full refund within 30 days of purchase. There are no questions asked—the guarantee simply ensures you can try Solid Security Pro risk-free. Note that monthly plans and special discounted offers may have different guarantee terms, so check your specific purchase terms. SolidWP's support team is also available to help troubleshoot issues before you consider requesting a refund.
