Hybrid Mode serves static pages directly while WordPress stays reachable for cart, checkout, account, and anything else genuinely dynamic — nothing you rely on breaks by default.
Static + Bridges and Fully Static modes reduce what stays reachable further, for sites that don't need as much left dynamic.
Visitors are served a pre-built static release instead of a dynamic WordPress render on every request — noticeably faster page loads and less server load.
Every route served statically is one fewer route that reaches WordPress or its plugins at request time. Zero-WordPress Mode (Pro) goes further: default-deny for every public request except static files, Static Shield's own Shield Bridge API, and your allowlisted admin IP.

Static Shield crawls and renders your site into a static release, without touching your WordPress workflow.
Visitors get the static release; you keep the usual wp-admin. Pro adds cloud monitoring, verification, and Zero-WordPress/Vault Mode on top.
No — no software makes a site “unhackable” or “100% secure.” Static Shield reduces public exposure by serving a static release wherever possible and narrowing what stays reachable, but it does not make vulnerable software intrinsically secure.
Yes, by default. Hybrid Mode keeps WordPress reachable for anything not built statically or inherently dynamic. Tighter modes (Static + Bridges, Fully Static, Zero-WordPress Mode) narrow this further and can affect other plugins’ AJAX, REST, or webhook endpoints — review your active plugins before turning them on.
No. Install the plugin, run the wizard, and your existing WordPress site is used as-is — Static Shield builds a static release alongside it.
No. Static Shield is a defensive WordPress security and performance product — it reduces your own site’s public attack surface, it is not a penetration-testing tool.
