 * I got this in the mail today. It’s a sales video from WP Site Guardian. They 
   claim that Wordfence and other popular security plugins don’t protect against
   exploit attacks. The video shows them hacking a site in seconds. No doubt, it’s
   a sales ploy, but I would like a Wordfence response to it — also, I think you
   should know they are defaming your company in this video: [http://wpsiteguardian.com/live2.php](http://wpsiteguardian.com/live2.php)

 * Hi,
 * They don’t mention what the vulnerability is so I can’t say about that specific
   attack. We update know exploits regularly and take action when new ones are brought
   to our attention. This competing product looks like it is brand new and is not
   even listed on WordPress.org.

 * Thanks Brian. Your attitude is calmer than mine. I think they’re slamming you
   to make themselves look good. Wordfence has been really good to me and has stopped
   numerous attacks.
