Limit Attempts

Protect WordPress website against brute force attacks. Limit rate of login attempts.

Version 1.2.2 Last updated 2 months ago Requires WP 3.9

Install this plug-in now, don't wait until after you are hacked like I did!!!

My logs show that for one website, some brute-force attacks tried over 35 login requests per minute from multiple IP addresses over a 6 month period. They got in eventually and it took me over a week to resolve the issue.

This plug would have prevented that and does protect my site(s) now.

I can also check the IP address of the logs and add them to the Clocked-IP (blacklist) manually.
