## Wopisanje

Controla helps you monitor and improve the security posture of your WordPress installation.

The plugin securely sends essential system metadata to your Controla dashboard so
you can identify risks, outdated software, missing configurations, and general site
health issues.

Data sent to Controla includes:
 – Site and home URLs – WordPress version, locale,
multisite status, and automatic plugin update status – Installed plugin names, file
paths, versions, activation status, and update availability – Basic server information–
WordPress user IDs, names, email addresses, roles, and two-factor authentication
provider status (if configured) – The plugin’s security-hardening settings and generated
server security recommendations

The plugin does NOT collect passwords, site content, or session data.

Separately, the plugin stores a local security audit log in the WordPress database.
Audit entries can contain usernames, WordPress user IDs, IP addresses, event details,
and timestamps. These entries are not included in the data sent to Controla and 
are retained until the site owner deletes them.

A free Controla account is recommended to make the most out of this plugin.

### External services

This plugin connects to the [Controla service at `app.controla.ai`](https://app.controla.ai/)
to display WordPress security and health insights in the user’s Controla dashboard.
The connection is required only for the dashboard integration; the plugin’s local
security-hardening features can be used without it.

After an administrator enters a Controla API key, the plugin sends the API key for
authentication and the site metadata listed in the Description section. Data is 
sent when the plugin settings are saved, approximately once every 24 hours, and 
after a WordPress user is registered, updated, or deleted or a plugin is activated
or deactivated (limited to at most once every five minutes for these events). No
site data is sent to Controla until an API key has been configured.

This service is provided by Controla AB:

## Instalacija

## HSP

### Does the plugin collect sensitive data?

No, the plugin sends the site and user metadata listed in the Description section
to Controla for security and health analysis. It does not send passwords, site content,
or session data.

### Will this affect site performance?

Unlikely, data collection is designed to be lightweight. Requests to Controla have
a five-second timeout and occur only at the times described in the External services
section.

### Do I need a Controla account?

Not for basic hardening, but a free account is required to view your security insights.
