Security question: Should I switch from Bulletproof Security Pro to WP Security Ninja Pro (which has a lifetime deal)? Which plugin is better for security?

[ad_1]

Hi, I currently use [Bulletproof Security Pro](https://www.ait-pro.com/) on my WordPress site, which is under construction. As far as I know, it hasn’t been attacked. It was a one-time fee, and I can use it on unlimited websites, which is a great deal.

However, a plugin called [WP Security Ninja Pro](https://wordpress.org/plugins/security-ninja/) is having a lifetime deal for $40 through a website called AppSumo (this post is not an advertisement, I swear). I was just wondering which of these two plugins is better for security.

According to [WPBeginner](https://www.wpbeginner.com/plugins/best-wordpress-firewall-plugins-compared/), a DNS-level firewall is better than an application-level firewall, but unfortunately, Bulletproof Security uses the latter. Meanwhile, [Hostinger](https://www.hostinger.com/tutorials/wordpress-security-plugins) says that Security Ninja uses a “cloud” firewall, which I assume is a DNS-level firewall—i.e., the better kind (although I could be misinterpreting that).

So, would that make Security Ninja the better option? As an aside, Bulletproof Security Pro has a very unintuitive UI, and it’s hard to imagine Security Ninja’s could be worse. But I’m primarily interested in whichever option is better for security.

**Tl;dr:** So, does anyone know whether WP Security Ninja Pro (which uses a firewall that *might* be DNS-level) is better for security than Bulletproof Security Pro (which uses an application-level firewall)?

Thanks.
