Mô tả
Out of the box, WordPress allows unlimited attempts to log in. This opens up opportunities for attackers to crack passwords simply by trying over and over again. This kind of attack is called brute-force, and Protect Login mitigates this by slowing down the login after a series of subsequent failed attempts.
But we did not stop there. We’re also working on ways to improve the security of your WordPress passwords. Currently, we do this by allowing you to enforce a password policy to make sure your users don’t use weak passwords for their accounts.

Hỏi đáp
-
Who are you folks?
-
We’re Thomas and Simon, two WordPress enthusiasts, with the dearing crazy idea to offer a good plugin without asking for your money or attention.
Our initial work on Protect Login was sponsored by group.one.
-
Why did you build this plugin?
-
We care about WordPress and keeping WordPress sites secure. So we decided it was time to take the code of the original Limit Login Attempts plugin and build on top of it.
We did this for you. Protect Login is 100% free and will not bother you with nasty upsells or scare marketing. You have better things to do, don’t you? -
Why not reset failed attempts on a successful login?
-
This is very much by design. Otherwise, you could simply brute force the “admin” password by logging in as your own user every 4th attempt.
-
How do I know if my site is behind a reverse proxy?
-
If you’re not sure about this, chances are your site is not behind a reverse proxy. However, Protect Login’s settings offer an option to activate proxy mode.
A reverse proxy is a server between the site and the Internet (perhaps handling caching or load-balancing). This makes getting the correct client IP to block slightly more complicated. -
Can I put my IP on an allowlist to avoid getting locked out?
-
Yes, there is an allowlist tab in Protect Login’s settings.
-
I locked myself out while testing this plugin; what do I do?
-
Either wait until your account/IP is unblocked, or if you have FTP or SSH access to the site, rename it “wp-content/plugins/protect-login” to deactivate the plugin.
-
Do you support IPv6 addresses?
-
Yes, if the webserver passes an IPv6 address to your WordPress installation, the plugin has no problems to handle IPv6 from 1.2.0.
