how to protect wordpress sites

The wave of attacks that targeted these days Joomla and WordPress blogs hosted in the world would rely on the use of a botnet (a network of zombie machines), thousands of different IP addresses that have been identified in the behind these attempts. Several hosts and Content Delivery Networks, as CloudFlare, sounded the alarm.

Immediately and if it does not already, several actions can prevent this type of attack (and other potential threats):

  • Delete the "Administrator" account with "Admin" for identifying (and too simple derivatives): replace a more complex user name (naturally giving him administrator rights).
  • Choose a complex password
  • Under a WordPress blog, enable strong authentication (two)
  • Related sounds day CMS and installed plugins
  • Block access to the administration area (eg WP-login.php in WordPress) using HTACCESS file to create a protection login / password to protect the administration area.
  • Other method is Install “Wordfence plugin” from the wordpress plugin directory.

Example:

To protect the administration area in WordPress, you must set up two files:

1..Htaccess.html

AuthName "Page d'administration protégée, veuillez vous identifier" AuthType Basic AuthUserFile "/var/www/vhosts/nsxxxxxxx.ovh.net/httpdocs/maisonduweb/blog/wp-admin/.htpasswd" Require valid-user

2.The htpasswd file. (Containing your username and encrypted password)

admin:$apr1$0aSDHiu7$jJh1mXQKvBV5feUwg2dA0.

You can go through  htaccesstools.com to generate your htpasswd file.

Finally, you must place both files via ftp at the "wp-admin" directory as WordPress or "administrator" in Joomla.
