The only thing you can run is “Test your website security” which tells you where the vulnerabilities are. My site is hacked and want to find where the malware is, Hi Steven, Thank you for sharing your feedback, and I’m sorry to hear that our plugin didn’t meet your expectations in this situation. The free version of Security Ninja is designed to help identify security vulnerabilities and provide you with actionable insights to secure your website. While it’s a valuable tool for prevention, it doesn’t include advanced malware scanning capabilities. These are typically found in more specialized tools or the Pro version of certain plugins. We believe that our plugin’s description clearly outlines what the free version offers, and we’re sorry if this wasn’t clear when you installed it. We always encourage users to review the plugin description to ensure it fits their specific needs. We wish you the best of luck in finding the right tool to help with your current issue. Thanks for the response, Lars. The vulnerability scan feature is not that helpful. My site was hacked. A couple other free plugins were able to point out suspicious files so I knew what to fix.
