=== Webfiable Info === Contributors: webfiable Tags: security, monitoring, WordPress security Requires at least: 5.0 Tested up to: 6.7 Stable tag: 1.4.1 License: GPLv3 or later License URI: https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-3.0.html Webfiable is a monitoring plugin that provides insights into your site's health and security posture. Requires a free Webfiable subscription. == Description == **Ensure your website's security posture and configuration health with monitoring and recommendations. Requires an active Webfiable subscription (currently free).** The Webfiable Info plugin is a component of the Webfiable security service, designed to help you maintain a robust security posture for your WordPress website. By securely gathering information about your site's plugins, themes, and WordPress version, the plugin enables the Webfiable service to perform in-depth analysis and provide weekly recommendations tailored to your specific configuration. == Features == * **Simple and Reliable Design**: Built with simplicity in mind, this plugin minimizes the risk of issues arising on your website and reduces the need for frequent updates, contributing to a stable and secure environment. * **Lightweight and Efficient**: The plugin is designed to be very lightweight, executing its tasks within seconds, and running no more than once per day, ensuring no impact on your website's performance. * **Secure Data Transmission**: Utilizes advanced hybrid encryption (AES + RSA) to securely transmit data to the Webfiable service. * **Proactive Security Monitoring**: Enables continuous monitoring of your site’s security posture and configuration health. * **Part of the Webfiable Service**: Requires an active Webfiable subscription (currently free). == Security Features == Webfiable Info is built with security at its core, ensuring that your website’s data is protected at every stage: * **Hybrid Encryption**: Combines AES and RSA encryption to safeguard your data. The plugin uses AES-256 to encrypt the collected data, and then securely transmits the AES key by encrypting it with RSA-2048. * **Initialization Vector (IV)**: Each data transmission uses a unique Initialization Vector (IV) to ensure that even identical data produces different ciphertexts, enhancing security. * **RSA Key Management**: The RSA encryption ensures that only the Webfiable service can decrypt the transmitted data, using a private key that remains secure on the Webfiable infrastructure. == Why It Is Secure == 1. **Advanced Encryption Techniques**: Webfiable Info employs AES-256 for data encryption, a standard widely recognized for its strength and security. The AES key is then encrypted with RSA-2048, ensuring that even if the data is intercepted, it cannot be decrypted without the corresponding private RSA key, which is securely stored by Webfiable. 2. **Data Integrity**: The use of a unique IV for each transmission guarantees that your data remains confidential and secure, preventing any potential attackers from predicting or replicating encrypted data streams. 3. **Confidentiality by Design**: The plugin is designed to collect only the necessary information for security analysis, ensuring that your website's sensitive data is handled with the utmost care and never exposed. == Installation == 1.
