Protecting the small web
A non profit effort to keep WordPress websites and the people behind them safe.
Who we are
Louis WP Scan is a non profit project created after one too many small websites were lost to attacks that were entirely preventable. WordPress powers a huge part of the web, from family blogs to local shops and charities. Many of these sites are run by people who are experts in their own field but were never meant to become security specialists.
We exist to close that gap. We turn the technical checks a security professional would run into a simple, friendly report that anyone can act on.
What makes us different
- Completely free, with no hidden paid tier
- We respect your privacy and store as little as possible
- Plain language fixes, not confusing jargon
- Safe, read only checks that never touch your content
- Available in English and French
Our mission
To protect small businesses and everyday people from hacking and the illegal use of their data, by making practical security knowledge free for everyone.
Our vision
A web where a small website is not an easy target, and where good security is something everyone can reach.
