    NinjaScanner searches for malware and virus, not vulnerabilities.
    (The next version of NinjaFirewall will inform you about important security updates in your plugins or themes.)

    You can use it on any type of servers, unlike NinjaFirewall.

    Ok sorry I don’t have many aknwoledges about security but…

    When you say “malware and virus”, do you include trojans, worms, spyware, unknow malwares, …etc ?

    Can you tell me if NinjaScanner is efficient as well as other plugins like ‘Anti-Malware Security and Brute-Force Firewall’, ‘Quttera Web Malware Scanner’, ‘Sucuri Security – Auditing, Malware Scanner and Security Hardening’, …etc ?

    @yass45 I would personally only recommend using one of the following:

    Sucuri, Wordfence, or Quttera.

    You really only need one of them.

    @g0tr00t why ? You don’t recommend to use NinjaScanner ? Why ?

    It includes all types of threats (backdoor, shell scripts etc).

    There’s no need to install any other antivirus if your site wasn’t hacked. As you mentioned you were using NinjaFirewall, its File Check and File Guard features are enough to monitor your site. They’re also very lightweight, unlike an antivirus.
