An alarm or monitoring system is a great tool that can be used to improve the security of a home or website, but what if an attacker can easily disable it?
I’ve previously written about malware that reverses security hardening measures enacted either manually by the owner, or through the use of a security plugin installed in WordPress. What attackers may find problematic with reverse security hardening is that a security plugin that monitors files can detect any changes and alert the owner via email notification or within the WordPress dashboard.
