Websites Under Attack

October 28, 2015 by DreamPix

Is your WordPress site under a brute force attack?

Last week on my website I had 448 malicious login attempts that were blocked thanks to the WordFence plugin. Brute Force Attack with multiple logins is a new form of attack that has website owners concerned about security. It is alarming to see that there are hundreds of login attempts within minutes and if the hacker does get in it, they wreak havoc on a website that sometimes needs to be reconstructed. Wordfence is a free plugin that provides preventative measures to keep a site safe from attacks. The plugin can identify and prevent hackers from breaking in and, in premium versions of the plugin, users can restrict access geographically. Download WordFence now and you’ll feel safer.
