Limit Login Attempts Reloaded Description:

Limit the number of login attempts into your WordPress site that possible both through the normal login as well as using the authorization cookies.

By default WordPress allows unlimited login attempts either through the login page or by sending special cookies. This allows passwords (or hashes) to be cracked using brute-force relatively easily.
Limit Login Attempts Reloaded blocks an Internet address from making further attempts after a specified limit on retries has been reached, making a brute-force attack difficult or impossible.

Features:

  • Limit the number of retry attempts when logging in (per each IP). This is fully customizable.
  • Limit the number of attempts to log in using authorization cookies in the same way.
  • Informs the user about the remaining retries or lockout time on the login page.
  • Optional logging and optional email notification.
  • Handles the server behind the reverse proxy.
  • Whitelist/blacklist IPs and Usernames.
  • Compatible with Sucuri Website Firewall.
  • Protection for XMLRPC gateway.
  • Protection for Woocommerce login page.
  • Multi-site compatibility with extra MU settings.
  • GDPR compliant. With this feature turned on, all logged IPs get obfuscated (md5-hashed).
