 * Hi Andrew, I would not use both security plugins.
 * There is no need for the two to be active. I am not saying that they don’t work
   well together however in my humble option one should do the job. It is also a
   way of making sure that there is no future conflict between the two security 
   plugins.
 * Kind regards

 * Thanks for the email.
 * I don’t have any problems using both – Wordfence is good for some things that
   All In One is not. I just wanted to know why this error is being reported and
   if there is an issue?
 * Thanks

 * Hi Andrew those are log files and depending on what security settings you have
   enable these files will always change. That is why Wordfence is letting you know
   that the log files have changed since the last time it checked.
 * I would not worry about these files. The only time that you would concern yourself
   if any php or wordpress core files change without you carrying out any updates
   or major changes on the back end.
 * I hope this answers your question. If it does can you mark this support ticket
   as resolved.
 * Thank you
