How does AIOS file and database protection work?

AIOS helps you protect your WordPress site by controlling access, scanning for risks, and securing sensitive content.

  • Scan and fix file permissions:
    Quickly identify insecure permissions on important files and folders, then apply safe settings with one click.

  • Disable PHP editing from the dashboard:
    Turn off the built-in WordPress file editor to reduce the risk of attackers injecting code through themes or plugins.

  • Hide sensitive files:
    Block access to files like readme.html that could give away information about your site’s setup.

  • Enable file change scanning:
    Get notified whenever files are added, modified, or deleted – so you can spot suspicious activity early.

  • Block image hotlinking:
    Prevent external sites from using your hosted images and wasting your server’s resources.

Frequently asked questions

What does AIOS do to protect my files and folders?

AIOS protects your files and folders by scanning for insecure file permissions, blocking unauthorized PHP file edits, and restricting public access to sensitive files. These measures help keep your WordPress site more secure from potential threats.

What is file change detection and why does it matter?

File change detection alerts you when something unexpected changes on your site, this could be a sign of a hack, unauthorised plugin install, or tampering.

Why should I disable PHP file editing?

If someone gains unauthorized access to your WordPress admin area, the built-in file editor makes it easy for them to add harmful code to your site. By disabling PHP file editing, you close off that potential attack route and make it harder for hackers to compromise your site.

What is image hotlinking and how does AIOS prevent it?

Hotlinking is when another site uses your images by embedding their URLs, consuming your bandwidth. AIOS can block these requests to protect your resources.

How does AIOS help secure my database?

AIOS helps secure your database by allowing you to change the default table prefix, making it harder for automated attacks to target standard WordPress tables. We also recommend taking regular backups of your WordPress site so you can quickly restore it if anything goes wrong.

Is all of this available in the free version?

Yes. Everything listed on this page is included in the free version of AIOS – no extra plugins required.
