Best Maintenance and security tools

Hi I was just wondering if anyone know what the best maintenance and security plugins are to use for a wordpress site?

Have you checked out the plugin repository at wordpress.org? It is very useful to check out a plugin’s date of last updating, which version of WordPress it is compatible with, the number of downloads (a good indication of reputation) and the reviews. That will give you a very good idea of which plugins are the best.

I have heard a lot of good things about Sucuri and WordFence, so maybe look at their details first.

What sort of features are you looking for in a maintenance plugin? Maintenance can mean different things. For example, do you want it to backup your site on a regular basis?

Just ones that will help make backups and update all plugin and security for the site

You probably won’t find a single plugin that does all those things. You might end up with several. Just make sure they are from reliable sources and are properly updated so that they don’t conflict with each other.

Have you tried to Google “WordPress + Best backup plugins”, for example?

You can try iThemes Security (https://wordpress.org/plugins/better-wp-security/). It’s good and easy to handle.
