Case study: ManageWP Blocks 11.9M+ Threats in 6 Months with Patchstack

ManageWP's Vulnerability Protection add-on, powered by Patchstack since February 2026, blocked 11.9 million threats over six months by automatically applying mitigation rules to WordPress sites before patches are available. The integration gives agencies a single dashboard view across their entire client portfolio and eliminates the need for emergency updates or manual patching. WordPress.org's Protect the Shire policy, which delays plugin and theme releases by 24 hours, underscores why proactive vulnerability mitigation at scale matters for managed service providers.

Why it matters: WordPress agencies managing multiple client sites need portfolio-wide threat visibility and automated protection because attackers weaponize vulnerabilities within hours and most vulnerabilities lack updates at disclosure.
