How It Works

1. Install and activate the plugin on your WordPress site
2. Connect to your Sentra central console by entering the server URL and API key in Settings
3. The plugin automatically starts monitoring your site and reporting to the console
4. View scan results, manage firewall rules, and review security events from either the WordPress admin panel or the central console

External Services

This plugin relies on the following external services:

FreelanceBo Sentra Control Console

This plugin connects to a self-hosted FreelanceBo Sentra Control central console for centralized security monitoring and management. This connection is essential for the plugin to function.

What data is sent:
* Site URL, WordPress version, PHP version, and installed plugins/themes list (during heartbeat and scans)
* Security events (firewall blocks, failed login attempts, malware detections, file integrity changes)
* Scan results (malware scan, vulnerability scan, integrity scan findings)
* On request from the console (“Analisi del codice”), the PHP source files of a specific installed plugin or theme that is no longer maintained. The console forwards this code to a third-party AI analysis service to detect vulnerabilities and propose a fix. This never happens automatically: a console user must start it and must approve any fix before it is applied.

When data is sent:
* On plugin activation and periodically via heartbeat (every 5 minutes)
* When security events occur (login attempts, firewall blocks)
* When scans are triggered (manually or via scheduled cron)
* When the admin manages firewall rules, blocklists, or settings

Service provider: FreelanceBo Group S.r.l.s., Bologna, Italy
* Service URL: https://sentra.freelancebo.it
* Terms of Service: https://sentra.freelancebo.it/terms
* Privacy Policy: https://sentra.freelancebo.it/privacy

The console server URL is configurable by the user in the plugin settings. All data is transmitted over HTTPS. Data is stored on EU-based servers in compliance with GDPR.

WordPress.org API

The vulnerability scanner module uses the official WordPress.org API to retrieve information about installed plugins, themes, and WordPress core version. This is necessary to check for known vulnerabilities and outdated software.

What data is sent:
* Plugin slugs, theme slugs, and WordPress core version

When data is sent:
* When a vulnerability scan is triggered (manually or via scheduled cron)

Service provider: WordPress.org
* API endpoint: https://api.wordpress.org
