Introducing File System Watcher, a new feature of our Security protection. It helps to track changes in your site files to detect suspicious ones in time. File System Watcher has already been added to all plans and is enabled by default.

 

How the feature works

The feature takes a snapshot of the file system during a selected period and allows you to monitor which files on your site have been modified between selected dates. The snapshots are stored for 7 days.

You can control the frequency of snapshots in the plugin settings. Alternatively, you can run the snapshot immediately by clicking the Create File System snapshot button and refreshing the page.
