Clear, practical, and impressively thorough
Lockora Security Audit makes reviewing WordPress security refreshingly straightforward. The security score gives you an immediate overview, while the detailed findings explain what needs attention without burying you in jargon. I especially appreciate the core integrity and public-exposure feature which shows which files do not belong into wp core, very very useful!! The interface is clean, scans are quick, and the recommendations feel practical and actionable. Site Health integration and the optional AI-generated client reports are excellent additions. A polished, lightweight security tool that provides real value...highly recommended!

Excellent Security Plugin
Lockora has quickly become one of my favorites. The security audit is detailed without being overwhelming, and it identified several configuration issues and hardening opportunities that had gone unnoticed by other tools I had previously used. What impressed me most is the Claude AI integration. Instead of searching through documentation or trying to interpret technical findings on my own, I can simply ask the AI what a particular issue means, whether it's a real risk, and how to fix it. The responses are accurate, practical, and save a tremendous amount of time. The plugin is lightweight, scans complete quickly, and the interface is clean and easy to navigate. If website security is important to you, Lockora is definitely worth installing.

Best security plugin I've used in years — flawless Claude AI integration
I've tested a lot of WordPress security plugins over the years, and Lockora Security Audit is genuinely the best I've seen in a long time. The audit engine is thorough, fast, and easy to understand even if you're not a security expert. It flagged a few hardening issues on my site that other tools completely missed, and the recommendations were clear and actionable. What really sets it apart is the AI connection to Claude. It works perfectly ... I can ask questions about scan results in plain language and get smart, contextual explanations and fixes right inside the dashboard. It turns a normally tedious security review into something quick and almost enjoyable. Setup was painless, performance impact is negligible, and it just works. Highly recommended for anyone who takes their site security seriously. Five stars!

Top Wordpress Security Plugin for WP 7
Lockora is I think the first WordPress security audit which can implement AI into your security audit automatically and it works beautifully. Not a real malware scanner but shows within seconds if your system has been altered and which steps you need to take to harden your installation. 5/5 !!
