New! Security Check Pro Enhancements
Our iThemes Security Pro users will also notice a couple of enhancements to the Security Check Pro after updating to version 6.3.0. You can customize the Proxy Detection settings in the iThemes Security Pro Global Settings. Or, if you don’t know or don’t care if your site is behind a Proxy, you can let iThemes Security check your server configurations and choose the best option to protect your site. The Security Check Pro will perform a daily scan to check for any server configuration adjustments. If any adjustments are found, iThemes Security will make automatically update the security settings if necessary.
However, for those who prefer to take a more hands-on approach to security, the Proxy Detection settings now give you several options that will help iThemes Security best protect your site.
- Security Check Scan – (Recommended) Security Check will connect to the iThemes.com servers to accurately identify your server configuration. Security Check will correctly identify remote IP addresses and ensure your site is using the recommended features.
- Automatic – (Not Recommended) iThemes Security will try to find the correct proxy header to use automatically.
- Manual – Manually select the header your proxy uses.
- Disabled – Do not use Proxy Detection if your website isn’t behind a proxy.
WordPress security shouldn’t be hard, and the Security Check Pro simplifies and increases the security for the free and Pro users of iThemes Security.
