Actionable Recommendations: AI‑Powered To‑DoList for Faster Risk Reduction
Your report includes a curated, action‑orientedrecommendations section generated from your site’s real scan data.It summarizes what to fix first across PHP, WordPress core, theme,and plugins—plus update hygiene and trends—so you can move frominsight to action quickly.
What Feeds the Recommendations
The AI analyzes a structured overview of your site,including:
· Site Vigil Rating (grade)
· Site Status (e.g.,secure, outdated, high, critical)
· Component ratings:PHP, WordPress, Theme, Plugins
· VulnerabilityBreakdown (Critical/High/Medium/Low)
· High‑Risk Components (which pillars are “hot”)
· High‑Risk VulnerabilityTrend (month‑wise High+Critical)
· SiteVigil Rating Trend (month‑wise rating)
· Update Delay from LatestRelease (how far behind)
· Versions Behind Latest Release(Up to date / N major/minor/patch)
·Outdated Components list (installed vslatest)
·All detected vulnerabilities (condensed)
Result: a concise, prioritized checklist tailoredto your site’s actual state.
What the Output Looks Like
·recommendations: a short, rankedlist of fixes
· insights:brief rationale and context to explain the “why”
Example recommendations you might see:
·Patch immediately:Update plugins with Critical/High CVEs;validate core after update.
·Reduce exposure:Remove unused/abandoned plugins and inactive themes.
·Close version gaps: UpgradePHP to a supported release; updateWordPress core to the latest stable.
·Theme maintenance: Update theactive theme; verify template overrides post‑update.
·Process improvements: Enable auto‑minorupdates, schedule monthly maintenance, re‑scan after changes.
How Recommendations Are Prioritized
· Critical andHigh vulnerabilities first (biggest risk reduction)
·Then outdated components (to preventnew vulnerabilities and compatibility issues)
· Then Medium/Lowitems and hygiene improvements for long‑term stability
Why This Matters
· Clearnext steps: Turns complex data into an ordered to‑dolist.
·Outcome‑focused:Aligns with trends—recommended actions aim to lower High/Critical countsand raise your Site Vigil Rating.
·Stakeholder‑ready:Easy to communicate, assign, and track to closure.
How to Use Them
· Treat the first 2–4items as this sprint’s security work.
· Re‑scan after completing recommendations—your trend charts andrating should improve.
· Standardize amonthly cycle so “Outdated” items don’t recur.
