A Web Tripwire is a mechanism which compares the web server’s view of a web-site, with the client’s view of the web-site, if the two are different, then the page has possibly been altered in transit. The alteration may have occurred at any point in the transit of the page, sometimes with the user’s consent, sometimes without. Web Tripwires should not be thought of as a security control, but as a feedback mechanism to assist users in making informed choices about their Internet connectivity and their security process.

This plugin will apply additional stress to your WordPress blog’s resources, as additional transfers, and database queries are made. You should be aware of the potential additional load this will place on your hosting resources.
