WORDPRESS SECURITY & MONITORING

Protect access. Review changes. Keep the evidence visible.

SiteWatch is a WordPress security and monitoring plugin that connects account protection, plugin review and approval, native encrypted forms, file integrity review and operational monitoring for website owners, agencies and network administrators.

One Connected Security Workflow

Bring access, approval and investigation into the same workspace.

People sign in, accounts gain roles, packages change and services make requests in the background. SiteWatch gives those activities distinct review paths instead of treating every event as the same kind of security finding.

Configure the relevant policies, verify the required authority and review recorded evidence. A report can summarize what needs attention while retaining the file, package, account or service context needed for the next decision.

Choose SiteWatch

One product, one installation-bound license.

SiteWatch is delivered as one product. Account protection, plugin review and approval, site and file protection, native encrypted forms, monitoring, reports and network administration are part of the same installation-bound ARN license with guarded updates.

SiteWatch: $59 USD for one website for one year.

For agency licensing, contact ARN Smart.

Getting Started

SiteWatch brings these workflows together in one product, with installation-bound ARN licensing and guarded updates.

Start with the setup guidance, a current hosting backup and the site's real authentication/integration paths. Keep recovery access available when adopting restrictions.

SiteWatch requires WordPress 6.2 or later and PHP 7.4 or later. It has been checked on PHP 8.5 and on WordPress sites that use SQLite, such as WordPress Playground and WordPress Studio.

  1. Activate the licence once under Settings → ARN Center → Licences.
  2. Enroll an Authenticator, then designate your account as security approver with your WordPress password and a fresh code, in Plugin Review → Accounts & Permissions or, from SiteWatch 2.0.1, in the "Become the security approver" step that SiteWatch opens on until an approver exists. Until then, plugin installations and updates made from WordPress accounts wait in Pending Reviews.
  3. Choose a setup profile, observe normal traffic and enable restrictions step by step.

Start from the Evidence

Protection and monitoring are useful when their scope is understood. Configure SiteWatch for the workflows you maintain, then review the observations and decisions it records.
