Securing Your WordPress Admin Dashboard

Brute force attacks are on the rise. Learn the top three methods to lock down your wp-admin panel and keep hackers out of your CMS.

WordPress powers over 40% of the internet, making it the biggest target for automated botnets. If your login page is exposed, it is only a matter of time before it gets hit.

1. Change the Login URL

Never leave your login at `/wp-admin`. Use a security plugin to mask the URL to something unique, cutting off 99% of automated attacks instantly.

2. Implement 2FA

Two-Factor Authentication ensures that even if a password is breached, the attacker cannot enter without your mobile device.

3. Limit Login Attempts

Lock out IP addresses after 3 failed password attempts to stop brute-force bots in their tracks.
