Guard
Guard protects your wp-admin against bruteforce attacks.
Features:
- Max retries: You have the power to choose how many attempts a user can make before the user is blocked;
- Lockdown: This prevents the user from being able to use the login form after too many retries;
- Email notifications: We’ll report a user lockdown to you via email;
- Hide lost password: Hides the “Forgot your password?” link from the login form page.
This plugin does not make any changes to core: When you delete/uninstall the plugin, everything will revert back to normal.
