Reply To: Cannot load bulletproof-security/admin/tools/tools.php

The BPS Pro Pro-Tools tools.php file contains a Base64 Decoder/Encoder, which uses/contains standard PHP functions for Base64 encoding and decoding.  These standard php functions are also commonly used by hackers in hacking scripts so scanners may see this good/safe/legitimate code as bad/malicious code.  Check with your host and see if they can whitelist the tools.php file.  If they cannot whitelist it then you will not be able to use any of the BPS Pro Pro-Tools tools.
