Anti Hacker Plugin for Wordress (Free)
No matter how small or big your server is, hackers may attempt to use it to send spam, steal traffic, and attack other computers. According to Security magazine, there is a hacker attack every 39 seconds.
In fact, some studies suggest that the majority of attacks against websites begin to occur within the first 24 hours of a site going online. Hackers are known to use automated tools that continuously scan the internet for vulnerable websites, looking for security weaknesses that they can exploit. As soon as a new website goes online, it becomes a potential target for these automated tools.
Antihacker is a free WordPress plugin designed to improve system security by scanning your site and preventing unauthorized access to your account. It does this by restricting access to the login page to whitelisted IP addresses. If someone attempts to access your login page from an unauthorized IP address, they will be prompted to enter your WordPress user email and you will receive an email notification.
