The Basic plan of the help you to keep a close eye on some of the security vulnerabilities. However, it doesn't cover other crucial security aspects like database scanning for malware or blocking of fraudulent email addresses on your store.
That's why, at the right time, you might want to upgrade your Security module plan to Plus or Extra. The same steps work if you want to upgrade from Plus to Extra.
So, today you'll learn how to upgrade your Security extension plan.

Upgrade using composer
First of all, you need to remove the extension you currently use:
composer remove magefan/module-security*
Then you can proceed with the installation of an upgraded version. To do that, go to My Account > My Downloads and press the Install via Composer button to get the installation instructions.
Upgrade using archive
If the Security module was installed via archive, you need to upgrade it the same way. Just go to your Magefan account, download the extension archive and extract it.
We recommend creating a backup of the extension folder on your server before moving further.
Then copy the app folder from the archive to your Magento 2 directory. The new extension files will merge with the existing ones.
Once you copy the files to your Magento root directory, run the following commands:
php bin/magento setup:upgrade
php bin/magento setup:di:compile
php bin/magento setup:static-content:deploy
Once you upgrade your plan, you will have quite a few new features to configure. So, jump to the Security user guide to learn more about each of them.
