All in One Security & Firewall Extension

Hello everybody.

I am a currently a Wordfence user, both the free version on most sites and the premium version on some sites.

The sucuri plugin is also used together on some sites, as it can identify some changes that go unnoticed by Wordfence.

I recently picked up a site with All in One Security & Firewall and was impressed with some of the features it has.

When researching the Premium version of AIOS I saw that it still has what the free version lacks: malware scanning and cloud firewall.

Due to the number of AIOS users (more than 1 million installations in the free version) it would be very interesting to have an extension for it in MainWP.

I'll talk about some functions that I liked in the plugin:

Free Version:

  • Web Application Firewall (in the htaccess file)

  • Content Protection: iFrame, Content Copy and Spam Prevent

  • Login Page Hiding

  • Blacklist Functionality

  • Maintenance Mode

  • Robots Verification, Honeypots and possibility to use Cloudflare´s invisible captcha: Turnstitle

  • Users Audit: View activity by username, IP address, login and logout dates and times. See a list of users currently logged in, and a list of all failed login attempts.

  • Force User Logouts

  • Stop User Enumeration

  • WordPress Salts Security: adds 64 new characters to WordPress Salts and changes them weekly

  • Prevent image hotlinking

  • Audit Logs


Premium Version:

  • Malware Scanner

  • Multisite Compatible

  • Blacklists Alerts

  • Support for login forms: Support for WooCommerce and Affiliates-WP, Elementor Pro, bbPress and all third-party login forms

  • Block bots producing 404s

  • Country Blocking and whitelist some users from blocked countries

  • Traffic Blocking to specific pages

  • Low Price for many sites


I believe it combines features from several plugins:

  • Wordfence: firewall (even if not as efficient in the free version)

  • iThemes Security: Built-in security features

  • Sucuri: Scanning files and blacklists

  • WP Site Protector: Content Copying Prevention

And it is maintained by Updraft WP Software Ltd. (from the same guys at Updraft Backups).

And it has an interesting price.

I believe that many MainWP users must use AIOS and that an extension for it will be very useful.

Regards.

I agree -- this would be really nice to have. You already support UpdraftPlus Backups, and the API structure likely isn't too much different for AIOS

After much testing, I'm more inclined to support it. The plugin isn't great. The malware scan is really superfluous. If you have an infected file, it won't be detected. You can test, normally a good tool detects php commands like exec() or decode_base64(). This tool detects nothing. So I've changed it. I went for CleanTalk which is much more advanced for a similar price.
