Jetpack offers paid WordPress protection through the Security bundle and VaultPress Backup. The Security bundle brings backup and security tools together; VaultPress Backup focuses on automatic backups and restoration. Scan and Akismet Anti-spam are also available individually.

Backups keep a recoverable copy of your site

Jetpack can back up site changes automatically in real time. Cloud storage starts at 10 GB, with additional storage settings available. Restore to an earlier point with one click, or use an older backup to help repair a broken site.

• Back up the full database.
• Migrate a site, including its theme, plugins, and database, to a new host.
• Move a theme and plugins to a new database.
• Duplicate or clone a site, or make a test copy from a backup.

The activity log records site changes and who made them, giving site teams a reference for maintenance and troubleshooting.

Scans and access controls

Automatic malware and vulnerability scans can identify code threats. When malware is found, Jetpack includes a one-click fix. A web application firewall can block malicious traffic, including attacks that exploit unpatched plugins, with rules for managing incoming requests.

Brute force protection helps guard the WordPress login page. Optional two-factor authentication is available for the WordPress.com-powered login. Jetpack also monitors uptime and sends an email alert when the site goes down. Login protection and basic downtime monitoring are included in Jetpack’s free core functions.

Spam protection and paid options

Akismet Anti-spam filters spam comments and form responses. It works with Jetpack Forms and integrations including Contact Form 7, Ninja Forms, Gravity Forms, and Formidable Forms.

Choose the Security bundle for combined backup and security functions, or VaultPress Backup for backup and restoration. Scan and Akismet Anti-spam can be purchased individually. To get started, install and activate Jetpack on your WordPress site, connect your WordPress.com account, and choose the paid option that fits your needs. Configure the included backups, scans, firewall rules, alerts, and restoration preferences.
