Login Form Protection - Brute Force
Some attackers use brute force attacks, simply trying a lot of login and password combinations trying to get in.
Protect your login form from repeated failed login attempts. If a user fails to enter a proper username and password combination too many times, they will get banned for a short period of time.
You can set the number of failed attempts by a single IP before being banned, as well as for how long they are banned.
p.s. You can help yourself a lot by using difficult unique passwords and use a secure password management application instead of reusing the same simple password. We can recommend 1Password by Agilebits.
Strengthen Your Security with Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)
Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) adds an extra layer of protection to your WordPress login process by requiring a second verification step, in addition to your password. Even if someone manages to get your password, they won’t be able to log in without using your phone to get the temporary code also.
Why 2FA is Essential for Your WordPress Site
With the rise of cyberattacks targeting websites, ensuring your WordPress login is secure is crucial. 2FA drastically reduces the risk of unauthorized access, keeping your sensitive data, user information, and site management safe from unwanted intruders. It's one of the most effective, yet simple, ways to bolster your site’s security.
