As part of our hack prevention solutions and keeping WordPress sites secure, WP Ghost has introduced support for Google reCAPTCHA Enterprise. This new feature ensures the website remains protected from spam and bot-driven attacks while aligning with Google’s latest security advancements.
A brute force attack is dangerous because it can slow down your website and make it inaccessible. What’s more, a successful brute force attack can give hackers access to your site’s admin area, which means they can install malware on your site, steal sensitive user information, and delete everything on your site.
WP Ghost offers a powerful tool to combat brute-force attacks on login forms. To enable this option on other forms, the [ hmwp_bruteforce ] shortcode was created.
By securing this path, you minimize the risk of potential vulnerabilities and attacks, particularly in your site’s comments section. WordPress websites are a common target for spam, bots, and malicious users.
