The Legacy of iThemes
Solid Security (formerly iThemes Security) is a veteran plugin known for locking down the WordPress core (e.g., changing database prefixes, moving the wp-content folder). While these "security through obscurity" tactics were popular years ago, they often cause compatibility issues with modern page builders and hosting environments.
Nexura focuses on actionable threat intelligence rather than obscurity. Instead of changing your login URL and hoping hackers can't find it, Nexura uses a Pre-Boot WAF to actively drop malicious connections and an AST malware scanner to detect advanced payloads that bypass basic checks.
