SiteGuard WP Plugin

Description

SiteGuard WP Plugin helps protect WordPress sites by strengthening login and admin-area security. It helps reduce brute-force login attacks, password list attacks, comment spam, and unauthorized access to /wp-admin/.

Main Features

• Admin Page IP Filter: Restricts wp-admin access to IP addresses that have successfully logged in.
• Rename Login: Changes the URL of the login page from wp-login.php to a custom path.
• CAPTCHA: Adds CAPTCHA to login, comment, password reset, and user registration forms.
• Login Lock: Temporarily locks out IP addresses after repeated failed login attempts.
• Login Alert: Sends email notifications when users log in.
• Fail Once: Intentionally rejects the first valid login attempt and requires the user to try again shortly after.
• Protect XML-RPC: Disables pingbacks or all XML-RPC access to help prevent abuse.
• Block Author Query: Helps prevent username leakage through /?author=<number> requests.
• Update Notifications: Sends email notifications when updates are available for WordPress core, plugins, or themes.
• WAF Tuning Support: Creates exclusion rules to help prevent false positives when SiteGuard Server Edition WAF is installed.

Requirements and Compatibility

• WordPress multisite is not supported.
• Apache 1.3, Apache 2.x, and Nginx are supported.
• Rename Login cannot be combined with a login page URL change feature in another plugin. Enable it in only one plugin; using both can leave two login URLs available, or stop the login page from loading.
• CAPTCHA requires the PHP extensions mbstring and gd.
• WAF Tuning Support requires SiteGuard Server Edition on Apache.
