Security Ninja helps you identify vulnerabilities and harden the security of your WordPress websites. Paired with MainWP, you can manage and monitor connected sites from one central dashboard.
This MainWP extension brings Security Ninja into your MainWP dashboard so you can manage and monitor all connected sites from one place.
Free version: Run Security Ninja Security Tests and Core Scanner remotely on one or more child sites. Refresh vulnerability lists in bulk (requires Security Ninja 5.297+ on children). View results for all connected sites: vulnerabilities (plugins and themes), Security Tests table, and Core Scanner summary. Malware Scanner summary (last run and count) appears when the child site has Security Ninja Pro. The Security Ninja column in the MainWP Sites table shows test score and vulnerability count. The extension page shows a Pro upsell for fleet events and alerts. Per-site Scan results includes a Run scans button.
Pro version: Everything in Free, plus a tabbed fleet workspace on the extension page:
- Overview – Fleet triage cards (firewall off, vulnerabilities, recent blocks, low score, malware, outdated child, stale sync) with suggested next steps when a count is above zero, plus Top incidents (7 days).
- Events – Unified events log across Pro children, with site and action filters, search, and event details.
- Settings – Optional daily fleet email alerts (multi-recipient digests with rule toggles), plus metrics history used by client reports.
Also in Pro: full malware scan file list on the per-site tab; copy settings from one synced Pro child onto many sites; bulk IP manage (add/remove whitelist or blacklist, lift ban / 404); White Label bulk action; per-site Settings editor (including blocked countries and path lists when children run 5.297+); daily metrics history (about 90 days) that feeds score/vuln progress in Pro Reports; Pro Reports tokens for Security Ninja data (see FAQ). Event logs, settings, IP management, and full malware details require Security Ninja Pro on child sites.
Note: Free child sites sync Security Tests scores, vulnerability count and details, and Core Scanner summary to MainWP. Pro child sites additionally sync event logs, malware scan details, settings, IP management entries, and AI Security Advisor summaries. Remote IP management and enriched event details require Security Ninja 5.285+ on child sites and Security Ninja for MainWP 2.1.1+ on the dashboard. Remote settings apply requires Security Ninja 5.285+ (array settings such as blocked countries need 5.297+; WooCommerce rate limits, 2FA copy, and ASN lists need 5.303+; Redirect /wp-admin to homepage needs 5.306+). After bulk actions, use MainWP Sync on the same selection to refresh the dashboard. Fleet alert emails use WordPress mail on the MainWP dashboard; configure SMTP if messages do not arrive.
