what is the threat?
as any website, wordpress also is exposed to whatever strives the savage public grounds, its self defense is weak and wouldn’t withstand any real attack, worse, it leaves all doors open for his associates – the plugins – even part of its own core can not be trusted …
the inside threat is real and imminent!
what does Orthrus do?
its very first task is holding the herd together and whatches that nobody misbehaves, that no one steels or poisens the food of others and that they all move into the same direction
Orthrus protects with exponential force the essentials, so that mother cows and calves never can be attacked by camuflaged wolves
it is the the fierce gate keeper, if for any reason somebody manages to break the gate, Orthrus is able to reconstruct it instantly and seal it for good
once you put Orthrus out there with your herd you can relax, nothing can happen unless the heaven falls on your head
what is it really?
hakka Orthrus is the latest security module for our Metro Framework, it fits seamlessly into any wordpress installation and does not require any special knowledge, third party plugins or external libraries
Orthus represents the state of art in modern technology reacting to real incidents, it is autonomous and self containing, even self monitoring
upon installation it creates immutable backups of essential system components, like user and user roles data, theme.json, functions.php and specially htaccess – your security gate
from then on, your site is under Orthrus’s watch without any noticable performance loss – as soon as any modification is detected Orthrus sends an admin alert and – if necessary – it instantly replaces the altered file with the save backup
Event: htaccess REC_OK
Time: 2025-11-09 03:09:42
Message: .htaccess was altered and has now been recovered, suspicious file backed up.

Orthrus monitores itself, sending periodically an Alive Beacon so that the admin doesn’t have to worry about long periods of silence

Orthrus integrates perfectly with our CIO Monitor, a badass underground module which tracks illicit attempts, it repells and logs suspicious activity on xmlrpc, login, restapi and more, Orthrus then shields the internal CIO structure
the module has an admin page to set options, like check cycles, monitoring, admin email and more, alongsiede a log incpector and a state report
reclaim your peace of mind
detecting silent core modifications or mailicious plugin activity, as well as any outside threats can be let in Orthrus’s hands – you rest, Orthrus watches – neutralizes attempts before causing any harm
your site isn’t just online anymore, it is save now
