Tighten WordPress Security Through WP Security Ninja

There is no doubt that the WordPress is the leading content management system that serves millions of websites. Some users believe that this content managing medium is more vulnerable due to the open source script. But it is untrue; let me tell you why!

It is the sole responsibility of the WordPress users to follow some set of laws and prevent the brute-force attacks. The primary thing is to get reliable hosting service to prevent viruses and intrusion codes from the hackers. Also, they should get the WordPress theme and plugins from the reputed sources after reading the user reviews.

Choosing the basic username and easily guessable passwords is another security mistake. If the hacker could estimate your login credentials, then they can easily take control of your site through login URL. So, it would be better to hide the login URL through the suitable WP Plug-in. (I use WPS Hide Login WordPress Plugin)

I have already discussed the WP security essentials in my other blog where I have consolidated all the possible ways to protect the WordPress site. You may check my detailed post on essential WordPress security tactics.

I hope that you have checked my piece of content and will implement those strategies that I have listed in the post. Even though you have safeguarded your WordPress site through some manual methods, it is recommended to use an upright security plugin to keep the cyberpunks at bay.

There are several WordPress security plugins available in the market, and they enclose excellent features. However, I have recently come across the WP security plugin called “Security Ninja” and wanted to have it for my blog.
