Free website security check

Know Your Exposure: Free Website Security Scanner.

Most WordPress and PHP sites get breached through problems you can spot from the outside: outdated software, weak HTTPS, missing protections. Find out in under a minute. Nothing to install, and nothing on your site changes.

  • Read-only: ordinary page requests, no attacks, no logins
  • Checks against known PHP and WordPress vulnerabilities
  • Plain-English results with how to fix each one

Scan your website

Use a company email at the same domain as the website. Personal inboxes (Gmail, Yahoo, Hotmail, Yopmail, …) are not accepted.

What the free scan checks

The basics every site should get right

TLS certificate

Is the certificate trusted, and when does it expire? An expired certificate puts a full-screen warning in front of every visitor.

HTTPS everywhere

Do plain http:// visits get redirected to HTTPS, and does HSTS stop browsers from downgrading later?

Security headers

Content-Security-Policy, clickjacking protection, MIME sniffing and referrer policy: the browser-side defences most sites forget.

Version leaks

Server banners and X-Powered-By headers that tell attackers exactly which exploits to try.

WordPress core & plugins

The WordPress version and the plugins we can see, checked against known vulnerabilities and the latest releases.

PHP version

If your site reveals its PHP version, we check it against every published PHP CVE and its end-of-life date.

Breaches usually come from what you can't see from the home page. In a deep scan, our team checks your site and server with your written permission and sends you a PDF report: every issue, its risk, and the exact fix.

How a deep scan works

Four steps, nothing changed on your server

  1. Tell us about your site

    Use the form below. We reply within one business day.

  2. Confirm authorization

    You confirm in writing that we may test the site, and agree a time window.

  3. We run read-only checks

    Every check only reads. We never modify files, submit forms or copy your secrets into reports.

  4. Report & walkthrough

    A prioritised PDF report, and a call to go through the fixes with your team.

Contact us

Get your deep scan report

Tell us which site you'd like checked. We'll confirm the scope with you before we send a single request.

Why we ask for authorization: a deep scan requests files that shouldn't be public, such as backups and config copies, to prove whether they are. Doing that to a site without the owner's permission isn't something we'll do, so we need your go-ahead first.

Questions

Is the free scan safe to run on my live site?

Yes. It loads your home page over HTTPS and HTTP, the same as a visitor's browser would, and reads the response. It sends no attack payloads, doesn't log in, and doesn't submit forms.

Why must my email match the website?

So only people from the organisation that runs a site can scan it. Use a company address at the site's domain: for shop.example.com, any @example.com address works. Personal or disposable inboxes (Gmail, Yahoo, Hotmail, Outlook.com, Yopmail and similar) are refused. We then email a one-time code to that address before the scan runs.

What do you do with my email?

We send a verification code, keep a record of which sites were scanned and by whom, and we may follow up once about your results. We don't sell or share it.

My site got a good grade. Am I safe?

A good grade means the outside basics are in place. The most damaging problems, like a backup with your database password in a public folder or an unpatched PHP version, are only visible with a deep scan.

Does it only work for WordPress?

No. The HTTPS, certificate, header and version checks work for any website. The WordPress and PHP checks add detail when they apply.
