Security.txt is an open standard (RFC 9116) that allows ethical hackers and security researchers to contact you when they have found a vulnerability on your website.
The principle is simple and effective: contact information is put into a txt file and placed in a fixed location in your website’s directory structure (well-known folder). In this way, contact can easily be made.
This plugin helps you to create and place the security.txt file without any knowledge of the open standard. This makes you easily accessible in case something is wrong with your website.
This plugin is completely free to use and does not include any advertisements or paid version.
