Sucuri Review 2026: Pricing, Pros & Cons

Overview

Sucuri is a website security company offering a cloud web application firewall, malware scanning and incident response. Its free WordPress plugin, listed on WordPress.org since November 2011, reported 600,000+ active installations in November 2026.^[3]

The free plugin provides security activity auditing, file-integrity monitoring, remote malware scanning, blocklist monitoring, recommended hardening and post-hack actions to help recover a compromised site.^[3] The paid Website Security Platform adds malware cleanups by Sucuri’s 24/7 security team, firewall protection and support; plans differ mainly in response time and scan frequency, from Basic, aimed at bloggers needing occasional cleanups, to Business, which has the fastest cleanup response.^[2] Firewall-only plans are sold separately by the month, and Sucuri describes its service as platform-agnostic, so it also protects non-WordPress sites.^[2]

Sucuri’s main advantage is professional cleanup combined with a cloud firewall that filters traffic before it reaches the server. The costs are higher than plugin-only products, and the cloud firewall requires changing DNS so that traffic routes through Sucuri.
