The New SiteLock Dashboard FAQs
What is new with SiteLock?
SiteLock updated its Dashboard on October 2024.
What is the new SiteLock Dashboard?
SiteLock's new dashboard helps users quickly understand their website's health and security. Users can access product details and performance metrics while easily managing security settings, all from a single platform.
Why did you change the SiteLock Dashboard?
To help users easily navigate and manage the security settings of their websites, SiteLock has updated its Dashboard. The new visual layout allows users to quickly grasp their website's health, product performance, and security status.
What information does the Sitelock Dashboard include?
The SiteLock Dashboard provides users a visual summary of their website's security account, which includes the following:
- Product details
- Account details
- Billing information
- Scan summaries
- Real-time notifications and security alerts
- Traffic analysis
- Configuration and health statuses of websites
What exactly has changed?
The new SiteLock Dashboard still has the same product, account, and support information its users are familiar with, but it has an updated visual design that is more streamlined and simpler, providing an improved overall experience.
What is a Risk Score?
With this feature, users can see the highest risk score across their account's domains, which will be highlighted at the top of the new Dashboard. SiteLock has made it easier to detect if any of the sites are at risk.
How is the Risk Score calculated?
The SiteLock Risk Score is a proprietary and predictive model used to determine a website’s likelihood of compromise.
To determine website security risks, the Risk Score evaluates three main categories:
- Website complexity, like the size of your website or if you use a database to store customer information.
- Website popularity, like social media and traffic presence.
- Website composition, like the software used to build your site.
SiteLock analyzes different website variables to calculate the domain risk score on a low, medium, and high scale.
- Low-risk score – It means the site is just as likely to be compromised as the average website.
- Medium-risk score – It means the site is six times more likely to be compromised than the average website.
- High-risk score – This indicates that the risk is 12 times more likely than that of the average website.
How often is the information in the Dashboard updated?
The SiteLock Dashboard provides real-time updates on the account's subscriptions and security status.
