This week, we’re recommending another interesting WordPress plugin designed to secure websites. It’s called SmartFilter and it’s developed by security startup Prevoty.

SmartFilter acts as a preview layer to sanitize all inputs and protect websites against code injections and cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks.

What’s interesting about the application is that it doesn’t rely on old signatures to detect vulnerabilities. This makes it an excellent tool for preventing zero-day exploits.

SmartFilter is recommended for WordPress website owners who want to protect themselves and their visitors against credentials theft, brand defacements, malware downloads and information breaches.

The plugin also provides detailed reports on the injections and violations it handles.

Initially, SmartFilter was developed as an enterprise solution, and it’s currently being utilized by a number of high-profile websites, including one owned by a government organization.

You can live test SmartFilter on Prevoty’s website.
