Connect Sola and WordPress to get security insights

Overview

The WordPress integration allows you to enrich Sola Apps with issues found for your WordPress websites, scanning for common vulnerabilities and misconfigurations.

Add your WordPress website URLs to uncover hidden risks and continuously monitor the security posture of your public WordPress websites.

With the WordPress integration, you can:

• Get visibility into security risks across all public WordPress sites

• Uncover hidden exposures that traditional tools can miss

• Monitor the security posture of your assets over time

• Surface exposed admin panels and login endpoints

• Track headers and security best practice compliance

Your data can only be retrieved, never modified.

Once connected, your data is securely stored, and access is restricted to retrieving configurations and metadata only. Authentication methods ensure secure delegation of permissions while maintaining data integrity.

Set up WordPress data source integration with Sola

Go to Integrations > Data Sources > click New data source > select WordPress.

The Sola wizard will take you through the steps.

Connect WordPress to Sola

Analyze your WordPress websites using one of two verification methods to confirm ownership and begin scanning for security issues.

Automatic verification

Email domain matching

This method matches the domain of the WordPress site to the email domain associated with your Sola account.

• Quick and easy setup

Only websites matching your verified email domain can be scanned using this method.

For example, if you signed up with [email protected], Sola will only be able to scan *.mysecurityorg.com (your domain and any subdomains), such as blog.mysecurityorg.com or wp.mysecurityorg.com.

HTTP verification using a TXT file

This method allows HTTP verification by uploading a TXT file to your website.

• Flexible and secure for multi-site environments

How to set up HTTP verification:

Upload the provided UUID in the Sola wizard as a sola-verification.txt file to your WordPress site under the following path:

/.well-known/sola-verification.txt

For example: https://my-wordpress-site.com/.well-known/sola-verification.txt
