 * Database snapshot.
 * Anti-malware/Antivirus.
 * [Sandbox for quarantined files](http://nin.link/nssandbox/).

 * And many more…

#### File Integrity Checker

The File Integrity Checker will compare your WordPress core files as well as your
plugin and theme files to their original package. Its File Comparison Viewer will
show you the differences between any modified file and the original. You can also
[add your Premium themes and plugins](https://blog.nintechnet.com/ninjascanner-powerful-antivirus-scanner-for-wordpress/#integrity)
to the File Integrity Checker. Infected or corrupted files can be easily restored
with one click.

#### File Snapshot

The File Snapshot will show you which files were changed, added or deleted since
the previous scan.

#### Database Snapshot

NinjaScanner will compare all published posts and pages in the database with the
previous scan and will report if any of them were changed, added or deleted.

#### Anti-Malware Signatures

You can scan your blog for potential malware and virus using the built-in signatures.
The scanning engine is compatible with [Linux Malware Detect LMD](https://github.com/rfxn/linux-malware-detect)(
whose anti-malware signatures are included) and with some [ClamAV](https://www.clamav.net/)
signatures as well. You can even [write your own anti-malware signatures](https://blog.nintechnet.com/ninjascanner-powerful-antivirus-scanner-for-wordpress/#signatures).

#### NinjaFirewall Integration

If you are running our [NinjaFirewall (WP or WP+ Edition)](https://wordpress.org/plugins/ninjafirewall/)
web application firewall plugin, you can use this option to integrate NinjaScanner
into its menu.

#### Fast and Lightweight Scanner

NinjaScanner has strictly no impact on your database. It only uses it to store its
configuration (less than 1Kb). It saves the scan data, report, logs etc on disk 
only, makes use of caching to save bandwidth and server resources. It also includes
a Garbage Collector that will clean up its cache on a regular basis.

#### Background Scans

Another great NinjaScanner feature is that it runs in the background: start a scan,
let it run and keep working on your blog as usual. You can even log out of the WordPress
dashboard while a scanning process is running! You don’t have to wait patiently 
until the scan has finished. Additionally, a scan report can be sent to one or more
email addresses.

#### Sandbox for quarantined files

When moving a file to the quarantine folder, NinjaScanner can use a testing environment(
a.k.a. sandbox) to make sure that this action does not crash your blog with a fatal
error. If it does, it will warn you and will not quarantine the file. It is possible(
but not recommended) to disable the sandbox.

#### Advanced Settings

NinjaScanner offers many advanced settings to finely tune it, such as exclusion 
filters, selection of the algorithm to use, a debugging log etc.

#### Privacy Policy

Your website can run NinjaScanner and be 100% compliant with the **General Data 
Protection Regulation (GDPR)**:

We, the authors, do not collect, share or sell personal information. We don’t track
or profile you. Our software does not collect any private data from you or your 
visitors.

#### Premium Features

Check out our [NinjaScanner Premium Edition](https://nintechnet.com/ninjascanner/)

 * **Scheduled Scans**: Don’t leave your blog at risk. With the scheduled scan option,
   NinjaScanner will run automatically hourly, twice daily or daily.
 * **WP-CLI Integration**: Do you own several blogs and prefer to manage them from
   the command line? NinjaScanner can nicely integrate with WP-CLI, using the `ninjascanner`
   command. You can use it to start or stop a scanning process, view its status,
   its report or log from your favourite terminal, without having to log in to the
   WordPress Admin Dashboard.
 * **Dedicated Help Desk with Priority Support**

I’ve tested it on multiple sites and hosting accounts it gets‹ stuck on different
stages of scan process making it unreliable. Even when it works, scan is quite slow.

#### 3.3

 * The folder and file exclusion list will apply to premium plugins and themes as

#### 3.2.7

 * Fixed a potential «stat failed» PHP warning when viewing a report.

#### 3.2.6

   as suspicious by the scanner (props Jonas Benjamin Friedli).

 * Fixed a potential «Function _load_textdomain_just_in_time was called incorrectly»

 * We have a new API: api.nintechnet.com. Make sure to whitelist this subdomain 
   if you are filtering outgoing connections.

   a warning in the report sent by email.

#### 3.2.1

 * Fixed a potential «Undefined constant NFW_ENGINE_VERSION» fatal error.
 * Adjusted PHP max_execution_time and memory limit during a scan.

#### 3.2

 * The «Apply the exclusion list to the file integrity checker» feature from the«
   Ignore files/folders» option will now apply to WordPress core files as well, 
   not only to the themes and plugins files.

#### 3.1

 * Fixed a potential «File is not in the ABSPATH or DOCUMENT_ROOT» error message
   when trying to view a file.
 * Fixed an issue where it was not possible to activate or deactivate NinjaScanner
   from WP CLI.
 * The scanner will attempt to disable the PHP display_errors directive so that 
   notice, warning and error messages won’t show up in the AJAX response.
 * Small fixes and adjustments.
 * Minimum PHP Version updated to 7.1.

#### 3.0.12

 * Fixed a potential «Cannot use object of type WP_Error as array» fatal error.

 * Updated Prism.js libraries.
 * Small fixes and adjustments.

#### 3.0.10

 * On websites running PHP 7.3 or above, NinjaScanner will use the hrtime() function
   instead of microtime() for its metrics, because it is more reliable as it is 
   not based on the internal system clock.
 * Fixed an issue where it was not possible to quarantine a file when running NinjaScanner
   on localhost over TLS because cURL rejected the self-signed certificate.
 * Fixed a bug with right-to-left (RTL) WordPress sites where the checkboxes below
   the log were all messed up.

   error during the scanning process.

 * Updated Prism.js libraries.
 * Added more details to the scanner’s log when a scan is cancelled because of an
   error.

#### 3.0.8

 * If the PHP ZIP extension, which provides the ZipArchive class, is missing on 
   the server, NinjaScanner will fall back to the built-in PclZip library instead
   of refusing to run.
 * When catching a PHP fatal error (E_ERROR), the scanner will write to the log 
   the full path to the file where the error occured.
 * Small fixes and adjustments.

#### 3.0.7

 * Fixed an issue during the anti-malware scan where the number of scanned items
   appeared to be higher than the total of files to be scanned, and returned an «
   Unknown Error» message.
 * Fixed an issue where corrupted ZIP files downloaded from wordpress.org were not
   deleted.
 * The anti-malware signatures file used during the scan will be temporarily saved
   to the database and no longer to disk because some antivirus used on Microsoft-
   IIS are still flagging the file as malware and delete it.

#### 3.0.6

 * Fixed a potential «Missing Lock File» error that may occur on slow servers.
 * Added streaming to the wp_remote_get function to lower the amount of memory used
   during downloads (props Daniel Ruf).

#### 3.0.5

 * Fixed error introduced in 3.0.3 affecting PHP versions 7.1 and below.
 * Replaced the «install_plugins» capability with «manage_options», to allow administrators
   to run the scanner even if the WordPress built-in «DISALLOW_FILE_MODS» constant
   is defined.
 * Fixed a potential «Undefined variable: snapshot» PHP notice.
 * Better detection of any potential error during the scanner initialization by 
   using a blocking socket.
 * The temporary file used to saved malware signatures during the scanning process
   is now base64-encoded to prevent it form being flagged as malware by some hosting
   companies.

 * Added missing description to the WP-CLI script (props Daniel Ruf).
 * Small fixes and adjustments.

#### 3.0.2

 * Fixed a potential issue where the scan could not start.

 * The whole scanner engine was rewritten from scratch, so that it can work on very

   can be selected from the «Settings > Advanced Users Settings > Display report»
   option.

   > Blog directory»).
 * HTTP basic authentication is now supported by the WP-CRON fork method.
 * Adjustments for PHP 8.0 compatibility.
 * Updated PrismJS libraries.
 * Many small fixes and improvements.
