Descrizione

With the carefully selected and easy to configure functions the plugin provides everything you need to secure your website and prevent a number of threats such as brute-force attacks, compromised login, data leaks, and more.

Login Settings

Here you can use the tools we’ve developed to protect your login page from unauthorized visitors, bots, and other malicious behavior.

Login Access

Login Access allows you to limit the access of the login page to a specific IP’s or a range of IP’s to prevent malicious login attempts or brute-force attacks.

Important!
If you lock yourself out of your admin panel, you can add the following option to your theme’s function.php, reload the site and then remove it once you have gained access. Keep in mind that this will also remove all IP’s that are allowed to access the login page and a re-configuration will be needed:

add_action( 'init', 'remove_login_access_data' );
function remove_login_access_data() {
    update_option( 'sg_login_access', array() );
}

Two-factor Authentication

Two-factor Authentication for Admin User will force all admins to provide a token, generated from the Google Authentication application when logging in.

Disable the “admin” Username

Disabling the “admin” Username will make sure that existing users with that username will be prompted to change it. It will also prevent usage of that username, since hackers are relying on the existence of that username when they are performing brute force attacks.

Limit Login Attempts

With Limit Login Attempts you can specify the number of times users can try to log in with incorrect credentials. If they reach a specific limit, the IP they are attempting to log from will be blocked for an hour. If they continue with unsuccessful attempts, they will be restricted for 24 hours and 7 days after that.

Important!
If you lock yourself out of your admin panel, you can add the following option to your theme’s function.php, reload the site and then remove it once you have gained access. Keep in mind that this will also remove the unsuccessful attempts block for all IP’s:

add_action( 'init', 'remove_unsuccessfull_attempts_block' );
function remove_unsuccessfull_attempts_block() {
    update_option( 'sg_security_unsuccessful_login', array() );
}

Site Security

With this toolset you can harden your WordPress аpplication and keep it safe from malware, exploits and other malicious actions.

Lock and Protect System Folders

Lock and Protect System Folders allows you to block any malicious or unauthorized scripts to be executed in your applications system folders.

Hide WordPress Version

When using Hide WordPress Version you can avoid being marked for mass attacks due to version specific vulnerabilities.

Disable Themes & Plugins Editor

Disable Themes & Plugins Editor in the WordPress admin to prevent potential coding errors or unauthorized access through the WordPress editor.

Disable XML-RPC

You can Disable XML-RPC protocol which was recently used in a number of exploits. Keep in mind that when disabled, it will prevent WordPress from communicating with third-party systems. We recommend using this, unless you specifically need it.

Disable RSS and ATOM Feeds

Disabilita i feed RSS e ATOM per prevenire lo scraping dei contenuti e attacchi specifici contro il tuo sito. Si consiglia di utilizzarlo sempre, a meno che tu non abbia utenti che utilizzano il tuo sito tramite reader RSS.

Advanced XSS Protection

Abilitando la Protezione avanzata XSS puoi aggiungere un ulteriore livello di protezione contro gli attacchi XSS.

Delete the Default Readme.txt

Quando elimini il file Readme.txt predefinito, che contiene informazioni sul tuo sito web, riduci le possibilità che finisca in un elenco di siti potenzialmente vulnerabili, utilizzato dagli hacker.

Activity Log

Here you can monitor in detail the activity of registered, unknown and blocked visitors. If your site is being hacked, a user or a plugin was compromised, you can always use the quick tools to block their future actions.

Important!
You can set a custom log lifetime ( in days ), using the following filter we have provided for that purpose.

add_filter( 'sgs_set_activity_log_lifetime', 'set_custom_log_lifetime' );
function set_custom_log_lifetime() {
    return 'your-custom-log-lifetime-in-days';
}

Post-Hack Actions

Reinstall All Free Plugins

Se il tuo sito è stato violato, puoi sempre provare a ridurre il danno utilizzando Reinstalla tutti i plugin gratuiti. Questo reinstallerà tutti i tuoi plugin gratuiti, riducendo la possibilità di un altro exploit o il riutilizzo di codice dannoso.

Log Out All Users

Puoi disconnettere tutti gli utenti per impedire ulteriori azioni da loro eseguite.

Force Password Reset
