JR Security Hardening and Login Protection secures your WordPress installation at the application level with one-click hardening modules. Designed to be secure by default and Cloudflare compatible.
Included modules:
<ul>
<li>Disable XML-RPC — Full block (filter + hard block) to prevent brute force attacks and pingback DDoS.</li>
<li>Hide WordPress version — Removes version from generator meta and CSS/JS assets.</li>
<li>Disable file editor — Prevents theme and plugin editing from the admin panel (DISALLOW_FILE_EDIT).</li>
<li>Disable emojis — Removes WordPress emoji scripts and styles, improving performance.</li>
<li>Block user enumeration (?author= and /author/) — Dual-layer protection against username discovery.</li>
<li>Block REST enumeration (wp-json users) — Prevents enumeration via the WordPress REST API.</li>
<li>Block sensitive paths/files — Blocks access to readme.html, license.txt, .env, .git, composer.json, etc. (only what passes through WordPress).</li>
<li>Security headers — X-Content-Type-Options, Referrer-Policy, Permissions-Policy, X-Frame-Options, HSTS (HTTPS only) and removal of technology-revealing headers.</li>
<li>Login protection — Rate limiting by IP and by user+IP with configurable temporary lockout.</li>
<li>IP whitelist — Excludes trusted IPs from rate limiting to avoid accidental lockouts.</li>
<li>Email notification — Receive an email when an IP is locked out due to too many failed login attempts.</li>
<li>Activity log — Security event logging in a dedicated database table with configurable retention and automatic cleanup via cron.</li>
<li>Ready-to-use server rules — Code for Apache (.htaccess) and Nginx to block static files that WordPress cannot reach.</li>
</ul>
Smart IP detection:
<ul>
<li>Native support for Cloudflare (CF-Connecting-IP).</li>
<li>Option to trust X-Forwarded-For / X-Real-IP behind trusted proxies.</li>
<li>Fallback to REMOTE_ADDR.</li>
</ul>
Clean uninstall:
When the plugin is deleted, all options, the events table and transients are removed. No data is left behind in your database.
