User Enumeration Protection

Hackers frequently take advantage of WordPress’s default configurations to discover usernames and passwords. We use advanced methods to protect against user enumeration, securing your admin accounts and thwarting brute-force attacks.

• Disabling Author Archives
  By restricting access to author archive pages, we make it harder for attackers to find valid usernames. This is a common tactic used for user enumeration on WordPress sites.
• Renaming the Login URL
  Modifying the default WordPress login URL (wp-login.php) to a unique and less obvious URL significantly increases the difficulty for attackers trying to locate the login page for user enumeration or brute-force attacks.

Malware can negatively impact your website’s performance and reputation. We thoroughly scan your site for malicious code, backdoors, and any suspicious activity, ensuring that threats are quickly identified and eliminated. Our proactive strategy helps maintain a clean and trustworthy site.

• Comprehensive Malware Scanning
  We perform comprehensive scans of your website’s files and database to find and identify any hidden malware, suspicious scripts, or backdoors that attackers may have injected.
• Malware Removal and Cleanup
  We will remove all malware and malicious code, ensuring your site is restored to its original integrity. Additionally, we conduct a thorough cleanup to get rid of any lingering traces of infections that might lead to future problems.

• Vulnerability Scanning
  We examine all installed plugins and themes for any known security vulnerabilities, outdated versions, and possible exploits. This process helps us pinpoint risky components that might leave your site vulnerable to attacks.
• Code Review and Compatibility Checks
  We examine the code of custom plugins and themes to make sure they adhere to secure coding standards. Furthermore, we verify their compatibility with the latest version of WordPress to avoid any conflicts that might pose security threats.

Your login page serves as the entry point to your website, and we take that responsibility seriously. By enforcing strong passwords, enabling two-factor authentication, and implementing CAPTCHA, we ensure that your login system is fortified against intruders.

• Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)
  We use two-factor authentication to enhance the security of the login process. This means that users must confirm their identity using a second method, such as a code sent to their phone, along with their password.
• Strong Password Enforcement
  We implement strict password policies that mandate the use of complex passwords, which include a combination of letters, numbers, and special characters. Additionally, we prohibit the use of common or easily guessable passwords to minimize the risk of brute-force attacks.

Regular Updates and Backups

We make sure that your WordPress core, plugins, and themes are consistently updated to the latest versions. Additionally, we implement automated backups, allowing you to swiftly restore your site in the event of a breach or data loss.

• Scheduled Backups
  We have established regular automated backups to guarantee that your website’s data, files, and configurations are securely stored. If an attack occurs or data is lost, you can swiftly restore your site to its latest, secure version.
• Automated Software Updates
  We make sure that your WordPress core, themes, and plugins are automatically updated to the latest secure versions, reducing the risk of vulnerabilities from outdated software.

WordPress databases frequently become targets for attacks. We enhance and protect your database using methods such as changing prefixes, implementing access restrictions, and applying encryption, which helps minimize the risk of SQL injection and data breaches.

• Database Prefix Change
  Changing the default WordPress database table prefix from wp_ to a custom one helps to obscure table names, making it harder for attackers to guess and execute SQL injection attacks.
• Access Control and Permissions
  We limit database access by setting up appropriate user roles and permissions. This ensures that only authorized users and applications can interact with the database, which helps minimize the risk of unauthorized access or manipulation.
  

We employ various strategies to block spam comments and prevent bots from overwhelming your server, ensuring that your website operates seamlessly and your users enjoy a top-notch experience.

• CAPTCHA Implementation
  We use CAPTCHA or reCAPTCHA on forms, login pages, and comment sections to stop automated bots from sending spam or trying to brute-force their way into accounts.
• IP Blocking and Rate Limiting
  We set up IP blocking for recognized spam sources and implement rate limiting to control the number of requests a user or bot can send in a given time period. This approach helps to stop bots from flooding your site with spam or harmful actions.
