 * Greetings:
    I have some questions about plugins for Oceanwp.
 * Do you recommend using any particular plugins for scanning malware, protecting
   against DDOS attacks, and other security concerns? Something like Sucuri, Cloudflare
   or Jetpack? What about Akismet for anti-spam?
 * Also, a caching plugin? W3 Total Cache, WP Super Cache, CloudFlare, or MaxCDN?
 * The Oceanwp theme is working great and I want to ensure that the performance 
   remains consistent.
 * Thanks!
    George

 * Hello, it can depend on the hosting company you are, for example, for Kinsta,
   they recommend Sucuri.
    For a caching plugin, for free I recommend WP Fastest
   Cache and premium WP Rocket. Feel free to ask me 🙂
