AppRanks verdict
Generated from live marketplace data — refreshed daily
Vigil Security Scanner is a newly-listed WordPress app with a limited review volume. It is listed in the Ai category on WordPress Plugin Directory, which AppRanks treats as the canonical taxonomy node for ranking and competitor comparison. no published reviews yet means feature claims are unverified by the wider merchant base. Without a published review base, the only fit-signal available is the developer's own documentation plus the marketplace's listing-quality audit (linked below). Paid-only pricing means evaluating fit on the marketplace listing or via the developer's documentation before installing. AppRanks tracks rating, review count, pricing tier, and category position daily — the figures on this page reflect the most recent scrape from the canonical WordPress Plugin Directory listing.
Pros
- +Published by Vigil — established developer track record
Cons

External Service This plugin connects to the Vigil API hosted at wpvigil.com and related subdomains to perform security scans and generate reports. This connection is required to identify vulnerabilities and outdated components installed on the site.
During scans, the plugin sends information about installed components, versions, configurations, and user-defined settings. Email addresses stored in the plugin settings may also be transmitted to enable notifications, alerts, and reporting based on user preferences.
The API is operated by M/s Nandan Global, the developer of Vigil Security Scanner.
