<p><strong>ANTI HACKER PLUGIN</strong><br />
★★★★★</p>
<h3><strong>AI Has Raised Cyber Threats to Unprecedented Levels, Microsoft Warns</strong></h3>
<p>The digital security landscape has reached a defining inflection point, fundamentally shaped by Artificial Intelligence. According to the Microsoft <strong>Digital Defense Report 2025</strong>, the impact of this change is stark: AI is making sophisticated cyberattacks 450% more effective than traditional methods, accelerating the overall risk landscape.</p>
<h3><strong>🚀 In a Hurry? Get the Essentials and Stay Protected!</strong></h3>
<p><strong>What it does:</strong><br />
It’s a complete security shield for your WordPress site. This plugin prevents, detects, malware, blocks hackers, and protects your site’s data and reputation.</p>
<p><strong>Why it matters:</strong><br />
WordPress sites are a top target for hackers. A single attack can lead to data loss, a damaged reputation, and major SEO penalties from Google. <strong>Your site’s security isn’t a feature—it’s a necessity.</strong><br />
Roughly 30% of all internet traffic is from bots, and 2.5% is malicious (data theft, brute-force attacks, slowing down sites). According to Cloudflare, that’s nearly 2 million attacks every second.</p>
<p><strong>Key Protections:</strong><br />
* <strong>Malware Scanner:</strong> Finds malicious code (797 types) in your files.<br />
* <strong>Firewall:</strong> Blocks malicious requests and common vulnerabilities.<br />
* <strong>Brute-Force Protection:</strong> Stops hackers from guessing your login password.<br />
* <strong>File Integrity Monitor:</strong> Alerts you to any unauthorized changes (or new files) to your WordPress core files and plugins.<br />
* <strong>No DNS, Cloud, or external API required</strong> <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> The plugin is self-contained, fast, and lightweight.</p>
<p><strong>Features:</strong><br />
* <strong>Quick Start:</strong> Easy to install and configure in just a few clicks (Less than 2 minutes).<br />
* <strong>Intuitive Dashboard:</strong> A clear, user-friendly interface to manage your security.<br />
* <strong>Real-time Alerts:</strong> Get instant notifications about suspicious activity.<br />
* <strong>Instant Support:</strong> Get 24/7 AI-powered support (included in the free version).<br />
* <strong>Attack Charts:</strong> Visualize blocked threats with daily charts showing the number of blocks by type.<br />
* <strong>Visits Log:</strong> See who’s visiting your site.<br />
* <strong>Languages:</strong> Available in Dutch, French, German, Italian, Spanish, and Portuguese.</p>
<h3><strong>🔎 Want All the Details? Read the Full Explanation Below</strong></h3>
<blockquote>
<p><strong>Even Small Sites Are At Risk!</strong><br />
  Cloudflare, the internet security giant, reported blocking an average of 166 BILLION cyberthreats PER DAY in early 2024 – that’s nearly <strong>2 million attacks every second</strong> sweeping across the web. In Q1 2025, Cloudflare blocked 20.5 million DDoS attacks, a massive 358% year-over-year (YoY) increase.”<br />
  Threats to WordPress sites have also skyrocketed, according to Defiant Inc: <strong>+68% new vulnerabilities in 2024.</strong><br />
  Hackers use <strong>automated bots that don’t pick and choose; they attack all sites, large or small</strong>, 24/7, by exploiting vulnerabilities.<br />
  And the trend for 2025 points to an even <strong>greater increase</strong>: Artificial Intelligence (AI) is empowering even less-skilled attackers to create bots to steal information, while ready-made attack kits are sold on the dark web, amplifying both the volume and sophistication of threats.<br />
  No matter how small or big your server is, hackers may attempt to use it to send spam, steal traffic, and attack other computers.<br />
  In fact, some studies suggest that the majority of attacks against websites begin to occur within the first 24 hours of a site going online.</p>
<p><strong>Amplify Your Server’s Defenses!</strong> Optional. When AntiHacker blocks a threat, it <strong>automatically sets up Fail2Ban</strong> to intercept and block that IP on all <strong>future attempts before they even reach your WordPress site</strong>. So, if you manage your own VPS, Cloud, or Dedicated server with Fail2Ban installed, <strong>this is a game-changer!</strong></p>

</ul>
<h3>Why disable the  WordPress xmlrpc</h3>
<p>This plugin disables XMLRPC API in WordPress 3.5+ or above, which is enabled by default.<br />
XMLRPC on WordPress is actually an API or “application program interface“.<br />
It gives developers who make mobile apps, desktop apps and other services the ability to talk to your WordPress site.<br />
Most users don’t need WordPress XMLRPC functionality, and it’s one of the most common causes for exploits.<br />
If you want to access and publish to your blog remotely, then you need XMLRPC enabled.</p>
<h3>Why should we disable pingbacks?</h3>
<p>Pingback allows you to notify other bloggers that you have linked to their article on your website.<br />
A WordPress website with Pingback enabled can be used in DDOS attacks against other websites.<br />
An attacker can exploit pingback functionality through simple command and an XMLRPC request.</p>
<h3>Why disable Json WordPress Rest API</h3>
<p>(disable WordPress Rest API)<br />
<strong>Block User enumeration to improve security.</strong></p>
<p>The REST API (new WordPress 4.7) allows for anonymous access and this means that anyone can list all<br />
the users of a website. This will enable botnets to try and Bruteforce attack a website with the user’s credentials.</p>
<h3>Brute Force Login Protection</h3>
<p>A <strong>brute-force attack</strong> is an attempt to discover a password by systematically trying every<br />
possible combination of letters, numbers, and symbols until you discover the one correct combination<br />
that works.<br />
Our plugin will <strong>protect your site against Brute Force Attack</strong>, by restrict access to login page to<br />
whitelisted IP addresses.<br />
Otherwise, your login page will request your wordpress user email.<br />
It is not necessary Limit Login Attempts. Read below about Rate Limiting.</p>
<h3>Rate Limiting</h3>
<p>Rate Limiting is a substitute to <strong>Limit Login Attempts</strong>.<br />
Bots and Hackers can make a lot of visits in a short time period.<br />
We can just limit a number of visits.</p>
<h3>Simple Login Lockdown</h3>
<p>Rate Limiting is a substitute to <strong>Simple Login Lockdown</strong>. Read above.</p>
<h3>Rename wp-login.php</h3>
<p>Rate Limiting is a substitute to <strong>Rename wp-login.php</strong>. Read above.</p>
<h3>External service</h3>
<p>If the settings of Anti Hacker is Block all traffic from Tor? = “Yes”, we can test visitors Ip<br />
from the TOR PROJECT database. We download daily Tor Database and we didn’t send any information to them.<br />
This is a free service. TorProject is a not-for-profit organization.</p>
<p>Tor Documentation:<br />
https://www.torproject.org/</p>
<h3>External service 2</h3>
<p>Our plugin will check your status on Google regarding Google Safe Browsing.<br />
Google Safe Browsing is a service provided by Google to help protect users from malicious websites on the internet.<br />
To simplify your inquiry, avoiding the need to create a Google account to obtain an API,<br />
we will perform this query for you.<br />
We will send your domain address and Google will inform us whether it considers your site safe or not.<br />
Obviously, if it does not consider it safe, it will not send visitors to your site.<br />
Instead, it will inform those who intend to visit your site that it is dangerous.<br />
Hence the importance of always monitoring this. We will add that on your plugin dashboard.<br />
This collected data (domain name) will only be used to query Google and will not be stored.<br />
For more information about this, <a href="https://safebrowsing.google.com/" rel="nofollow ugc">visit Google.</a><br />

<h3>Advanced Site Health</h3>
<p>WordPress’s built-in Site Health feature provides a great baseline for your site’s well-being. However, in today’s digital landscape, true “health” goes beyond server configuration. A site can have a perfect score and still be slow, vulnerable, or plagued by critical errors.</p>
<p>Our plugin extends the core Site Health concept to provide a truly holistic analysis of what keeps your site fast, stable, and secure. We don’t just check the basics; we diagnose critical issues that directly impact your visitors’ experience and your site’s operational integrity.</p>
<p>Our enhanced checks include:Performance & Memory Analysis, Proactive Error Detection, Modern Security Monitoring.<br />
That  involves querying public, authoritative services like rdap.db.ripe.net with visitor IP addresses for security analysis.<br />
