Description

Most security plugins protect against external threats like malware or brute force attacks, but what about internal risks? AAM secures your site from within by preventing unauthorized access, privilege escalation, and broken access controls — the leading security vulnerabilities in WordPress.

  • Mitigate Broken Access Controls. Ensure roles and permissions are correctly configured to prevent unauthorized actions.
  • Eliminate Excessive Privileges. Identify overpowered users and tighten access to critical site functions.
  • Harden Content Moderation. Restrict who can edit, publish, or delete sensitive content.
  • Enforce Security with Code. Define access rules as JSON Access Policies, making them portable, auditable, and automated.
  • Empower Developers with AAM PHP Framework. Build custom, secure access controls with a robust set of services and APIs.

Key Features

  • Security Audit – Instantly detect misconfigurations, compromised accounts, and risky role assignments.
  • Granular Access Control – Manage permissions for any role, user, or visitor with fine-tuned restrictions.
  • Content Security – Lock down posts, pages, media, terms and custom content types or taxonomies.
  • Role & Capability Management – Customize WordPress roles and define capabilities with precision.
  • Backend & Menu Control – Restrict dashboard areas and tailor admin menus per user or role.
  • API & Endpoint Management – Secure RESTful and XML-RPC APIs by controlling who can access them.
  • Passwordless & Secure Logins – Offer password-free login while keeping authentication safe.
  • Developer-Ready – Utilize a one-of-a-kind AAM PHP Framework for custom security solutions.
  • Ad-Free & Transparent – No ads, no bloat—just powerful security tools.

Best in class

جنوری 17, 2025
I have been looking for a plugin to manage user access and AAM is by far the best of all. Highly recommended.

This is an incredible plugin

ستمبر 11, 2024
This plugin is the best out there. I use it every time I have a client that needs to have access to the backend. I can easily make changes to permissions for every user role. 10 stars guys

Doesn’t find all Plugin Toolbars

جُون 10, 2024 2 replies
When we started using this plugin a year or so ago it was good. But now it conflicts with many other plugins and misses out plugins like WPCode. It actually locked me out of the plugin as an administrator, so I had to uninstall AAM.It is a shame because it was once a great plugin.

Metaboxes and Gutenberg

مارچ 18, 2024
I am looking to hide “metaboxes” in Gutenberg editors, but as far as I understand in the “Metaboxes and Widgets”, in the “Articles” section, when I click hide (Comments, Slug…) .it does nothing.Does it only work in classic editor ?

Awesome Plugin with Great Support

Very comprehensive plugin that was able to do a lot of the things that I needed (especially in comparison to other ones out there when it comes to access management). Support was prompt, professional and very helpful and actually went above and beyond to help me out even after I had misunderstood some of the terms and conditions. They really know their stuff when it comes to WP so you are in good hands!

AAM é um ótimo plugin. Recomendo!

Olá Equipe do Advance Access Manager, Gostaria de expressar minha imensa satisfação com o AAM! Minha experiência com este plugin tem sido excelente, proporcionando um gerenciamento detalhado de usuários e acessos de forma intuitiva e fácil de compreender. O AAM se destaca como o melhor plugin que já encontrei até hoje para lidar com as nuances do controle de usuários e permissões. A interface é amigável, facilitando a configuração e administração das permissões de acesso, tornando todo o processo extremamente eficiente. Agradeço à equipe do Advance Access Manager pelo desenvolvimento de uma ferramenta tão poderosa e eficaz. Continuem o excelente trabalho!
