Security.txt Manager

Description

This powerful yet user-friendly WordPress plugin enables you to create, edit, and manage your “security.txt” file directly from the WordPress dashboard. As one of the most critical files on any site, the “security.txt” file communicates your security policy and contact information to security researchers.

What is security.txt?

A proposed standard which allows websites to define security policies.

Read the RFC

Can I use this with multisite?

Yes! However, if you are using a subfolder installation it will only work for the main site. This is because you can only have one security.txt for a given domain or subdomain per the security.txt spec.

Technical Notes

  • Requires PHP 7.2+.
  • Requires WordPress 5.7+.
  • Rewrites need to be enabled. Without rewrites, WordPress cannot know to supply /security.txt when requested.
  • Your site URL must not contain a path (e.g. https://example.com/site/ or path-based multisite installs). Learn more on spec.

How can I create security policy?

You can create it on https://securitytxt.org/ website.

Can I use this with multisite?

Yes! But won’t work for the child sites on subdirectory setup due to security.txt spec

Do I have to upload any files?

No. The plugin handles “.well-known/security.txt” and “security.txt” requests for your domain.

Perfect!
