Automatic, intelligent WordPress security. A local firewall, malware and file-integrity scanning,
vulnerability protection, and scheduled backups -- protecting your site with zero manual
configuration required.

== Description ==

ARGUS Defence protects your WordPress website automatically:

* **Firewall** -- blocks malicious requests (SQL injection, cross-site scripting, and more) before
  they reach your site.
* **Scanner** -- regularly checks WordPress core, plugins, and themes for suspicious files and
  integrity changes.
* **Vulnerability Protection** -- automatically checks your installed components against known
  security issues.
* **Backups** -- scheduled recovery points for your website, stored securely.
* **Global Threat Intelligence** -- continuously updated, automatically connected, no setup
  required.

Everything works out of the box. There is nothing to configure to get protected.

== Installation ==

1. Upload the plugin to your WordPress site (or install directly from the WordPress admin).
2. Activate the plugin.
3. That's it -- ARGUS Defence begins protecting your site automatically.

== Frequently Asked Questions ==

= Do I need to configure anything? =

No. ARGUS Defence is designed to work automatically. Advanced settings are available for
administrators who want them, but nothing is required to get protected.

= Will this slow down my website? =

No. ARGUS Defence's firewall and scanning run efficiently in the background, and the optional
page-cache feature can make your site faster, not slower.

= How do I update the plugin? =

Download the latest release ZIP and repeat the installation steps above (WordPress will offer to
replace the existing version). Automatic in-dashboard updates depend on an update channel being
configured for your deployment; until then, updates are applied manually the same way the plugin
was installed.

== Changelog ==

= 1.0.0 =
* First production release: firewall, scanner, quarantine, vulnerability protection, backups,
  cache & performance, and automatic global threat intelligence.
