== Description ==
<BR>
Welcome to the WP-Secure Plugin for Wordpress - By <a href="http://www.sitesecuritymonitor.com">SiteSecurityMonitor.com</A>.  We have provided this plugin free of charge to the WordPress community!  We developed this solution initially for our customers - and decided to release it to the community.  We have found over time that the same basic issues confound our users, and that basic WordPress security settings are not being applied.  So, we developed this plugin to make it real simple for everyone involved!  We hope you enjoy it, and provide any feedback as to features, changes, bugs.
