IT’S NOT A MATTER OF IF, BUT WHEN YOUR SITE WILL BECOME A TARGET

Brute force attacks refer to an automated method used to discover usernames and passwords to log into a website. WordPress by default cannot protect you from these bot-driven attacks, and they’re easy for hackers to attempt. iThemes Security Pro works to secure and protect the most attacked part of your website, the WordPress login, by blocking these automated attacks.

iThemes Security Pro monitors important security events that occur on your website. Early detection of malicious activity puts power in your hands so you can quickly take action to lock out bad actors, investigate unwanted changes on the site, and identify and patch the point of entry of a successful attack.

The iThemes Security Pro plugin offers several layers of user security enhancements, such as strong password requirements, two-factor authentication, and passwordless logins. These important user security measures decrease the likelihood that a privileged user account can be exploited to successfully takeover a site.

The iThemes Security Pro Site Scanner alerts you to vulnerable software installed on your site. The iThemes Security Pro Site Scanner checks your site for known vulnerabilities and automatically applies a patch to vulnerable software if one is available.

The reCAPTCHA feature in iThemes Security Pro protects your site from bad bots. These bots can be annoying at best and malicious at worst, trying to break into your website using compromised passwords, posting spam, or even scraping your content. reCAPTCHA uses advanced risk analysis techniques to tell humans and bots apart.

One of the best parts of the iThemes Security plugin is the actions it will automatically take to secure your site. iThemes Security automatically locks out users, bans user agents and IP addresses, applies version updates, and more, all on your behalf.

President, Getmeonline.today
“I use iThemes Security for all my client websites including my own personal sites. I can’t even express how much time and worry it saves me from thinking about security issues. The 2FA Authentication is such a lifesaver because I know my clients don’t always follow the best password procedures. I know iThemes Security is worth the investment when I see the amount of Brute Force attacks that occur in each site’s security dashboard. I’m smiling because I know I’m protected.”

iThemes Security requires Apache or LiteSpeed and mod_rewrite or NGINX to work. Microsoft IIS is not supported at this time. While this security plugin should work on all hosts with Apache or LiteSpeed and mod_rewrite or NGINX, it has been known to experience problems in shared hosting environments where it runs out of resources such as available CPU or RAM. For this reason, it is extremely important that you make a backup of your site before installing on any existing site. If you run out of resources during an operation such as renaming your database table, you may need your backup to be able to restore access to your site. Finally, please make sure you have adequate RAM if you plan to use the file change detector or make large backups.

No. iThemes Security is designed to help improve the security of your WordPress installation from many common attack methods, but it cannot prevent every possible attack. Nothing replaces diligence and implementing the WordPress security best practices. This plugin makes it a little easier for you to apply both.
