We email you when your site is in danger.

Simple security alerts for WordPress. One clear email when something needs fixing, and silence when it doesn’t.

Coming soon to WordPress. We’ll email you once, on launch day. No spam.

We read Wordfence, Patchstack, CISA (US cyber safety agency), NVD (US national bug database) and BleepingComputer all day, and check every story against your plugins.

Try it. What’s on your site?

Pick one to see the email we would send. These are examples.

Security news is written for experts. We rewrite it for you.

On the left, what the news says. On the right, what we send you.

What the news saysUnauthenticated stored XSS in versions ≤ 4.2.1, CVSS 8.8

What we send you: Someone could put a harmful link on your site. Update by Friday.

What the news saysAdded to CISA KEV catalog. Privilege escalation via unauthenticated REST endpoint, exploited in the wild

What we send you: Attackers are using this to take over sites right now. Update today.

What the news saysPHP 7.4 reached end of life; no further security support from upstream

What we send you: Your site runs an old PHP version that no longer gets security fixes. Ask your host to update it.

One problem, from first report to fixed.

One example from start to finish: a dentist’s site, a booking plugin, three days.

  1. A problem is reported.

    A security researcher reports a hole in a popular booking plugin. Thousands of sites use it. Most owners never see the report.

    Booking plugin flaw lets visitors run code on the siteWordfence, 6:40 am
  2. We check it against your site.

    Your site checks itself against our list. The result: you have that plugin, and your version is affected.

    Plugin
    Booking plugin
    Your version
    5.8.1
    Fixed in
    5.9.2
  3. Other trusted sources agree.

    CISA (the US cyber safety agency) says attackers are already using it. NVD (the US national bug database) lists it. That makes it a “Today” warning.

    • Wordfence
    • CISA
    • NVD
    • BleepingComputer
  4. You get one email.

    What happened, why it matters to you, one button, and when to do it by. No jargon.

    Update your booking plugin todayAttackers are breaking into sites through it. Yours has 5.8.1.
  5. You click Update. We confirm it’s fixed.

    Your site detects the new version and we send one short “Sorted” email.

    SortedYour booking plugin is on 5.9.2. Nothing else needs doing.

Every warning shows its proof.

We only warn you when trusted sources agree. Each email lists who confirmed it and when.

It’s under “Proof” in every email. Click a source to read it directly.

Questions

Still unsure? Write to alerts@watchfox.site. A person reads every email.

When can I get it?

We’re finishing it now. Leave your email at the top of this page and we’ll write to you once, the day it’s ready.

Will it slow down or break my site?

No. Watchfox doesn’t change anything on your site. It compares your list of plugins with ours a few times a day, which takes less time than loading one page.

What do you see about my site?

Very little. Your site checks itself against our list, and we only learn which problems it found. We never see your customers, orders, posts or passwords.

How do you know a warning is real?

We wait until trusted sources agree, like Wordfence, Patchstack, CISA and NVD. Every email lists who confirmed it and when. Early reports stay off unless you turn them on.

I’m not technical. Can I use it?

Yes, it’s made for you. Install it like any plugin and type your email. Each warning has one button and tells you when to act by.

What happens after the trial?

If you don’t pick a plan, you move to Free and keep your monthly check. If you do, we email you 3 days before each payment.
