That’s not a WP generated file. Perhaps the person who originally created the site did it. The best practice is to add salts directly to wp-config.php.

Thanks Steven! It was a fresh install but it is done through the webhost console so I thought it was something the webhost had done on their “image” or “script” which installs WordPress on a new VPS. That’s why I was confused when they insisted it was WordPress.

Thank you for confirming this is NOT a WordPress file. I will delete the file whenever I install a WordPress site on this webhost and ensure the salts and keys are inserted directly in the wp-config.php

Many thanks for the quick reply!

The advantange of putting the salts directly in wp-config.php is that you can quickly invalidate all of them (forcing new logins, etc) by simply adding a character to each. Plus, it’s one less file access each time the site is loaded.

In case it’s of interested, when I pressed the webhost further they stated that doing it this way is not uncommon and then provided this link as a reference

I will stick with what you’ve indicated above, as opposed to this arbitrary article from 2014.
