## WP Cerber Security, Antispam & Malware Scan

<ReviewDate date="2024-09-06" />

WP Cerber is a premium security plugin (with a free version available) that is only available through the [WP Cerber website](https://wpcerber.com/). Previously, it was available on the WordPress plugin repository, but it was [removed](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-cerber/) due to a violation of the repository's guidelines.

**Issue:** The WP Cerber Anti-Spam Engine makes pages uncacheable on the Pantheon Global CDN. WP Cerber creates a unique, cache-busting cookie for each visitor, which prevents users from seeing cached pages.

**Solution:** Disable the Anti-Spam Engine features in the WP Cerber plugin settings.

1. Navigate to the **WP Cerber** menu in the WordPress dashboard and select **Anti-Spam**.

1. Disable the following options:
- **Protect registration form**
- **Protect comment form**
- **Protect other forms**

![WP Cerber Anti-Spam Engine settings](../images/plugins-known-issues/wp-cerber-anti-spam-settings.png)

1. In your Pantheon dashboard, clear the cache for the environment.

Your pages should now be cacheable on the Pantheon Global CDN.
