Should I choose CIDRAM or N0WPScan?

CIDRAM holds the higher average rating (5.0★ vs 4.0★). That is the one dimension AppRanks can separate them on here — read both apps' detail pages for the feature breakdown and recent listing changes.

Which is faster to set up, CIDRAM or N0WPScan?

Both apps are one-click installs from the WordPress Plugin Directory. CIDRAM has the deeper published review base (12 vs 2), which often — though not always — accompanies better-tested setup docs. AppRanks doesn't measure setup time directly: read the recent reviews on each app's detail page for user-reported install experience.

Which works better for small vs large WordPress Plugin Directory site owners?

CIDRAM typically suits early-stage and growth-mode teams based on its published review base (12 reviews). N0WPScan typically suits early-stage and growth-mode teams based on its published review base (2 reviews). A larger review base generally means the app has been exercised at scale — relevant if you are processing high volume or handling enterprise compliance requirements.

Can I migrate data between CIDRAM and N0WPScan?

Migration support varies by app and category. CIDRAM and N0WPScan both publish their export options on their marketplace listing pages (or in their support docs); some apps offer one-click import from competitors, others require CSV. The fastest check: search "import from N0WPScan" in each app's help center. AppRanks does not track migration tooling directly — this is a category-specific capability worth verifying before commitment.

CIDRAM

CIDRAM (Classless Inter-Domain Routing Access Manager) is a PHP script designed to protect websites by blocking requests originating from IP addresses regarded as being sources of undesirable traffic, including (but not limited to) traffic from non-human access endpoints, cloud services, spambots, scrapers, etc. It does this by calculating the possible CIDRs of the IP addresses supplied from inbound requests and then attempting to match these possible CIDRs against its signature files (these signature files contain lists of CIDRs of IP addresses regarded as being sources of undesirable traffic); If matches are found, the requests are blocked. Requirements PHP >= 7.2.0 PCRE Updating Note: CIDRAM does not interact in any way with your database, and stores its own configuration settings, customisations, and related materials as flatfiles within its own directory. If you’ve not changed any of the default configuration settings and if you’re not using any customisations for this plugin, updating normally via the plugins dashboard, without need for any additional steps, should be sufficient and shouldn’t cause any problems. However, if you’ve modified the configuration settings for CIDRAM, or if you’ve made any customisations, I would recommend making backups of all of these prior to updating, due to that updating will overwrite all settings and customisations (after updating, you can then restore your customisations from your backups). Alternatively, if you update via the CIDRAM front-end updates page, all settings and customisations should be preserved.

N0WPScan

We love security testing, we do it! We love WPSCAN, we use it! However we don’t love people abusing WPSCAN and other automated methods to try and gain access to WordPress sites through known and often easy vulnerabilities. N0WPScan is not a silver bullet, but it will stop unskilled attackers, bots and automated attacks which account for over 90% of all WordPress breaches. The other 10% can be offset with a good firewall, IDS and NSM services. Server load will also be lower and sites faster as this tool will prevent a lot of WordPress related automated testing. [!] You can prevent most of the common attacks simply by keeping plugins, themes and the core WordPress framework updated Benefits * Disables access to admin for everyone except admins and editors * Disables the use of WPScan, a tool commonly used by hackers to attack WordPress, also blocks other automated WP scanners * Blocks hackers from scanning your website for admin users, vulnerable themes, vulnerable plugins and exposed files * Reduces the load on your server * Prevents access to sensitive files
