<p>Limit the number of login attempts possible both through normal login as well as using auth cookies.</p>
<p>By default WordPress allows unlimited login attempts either through the login page or by sending special cookies. This allows passwords (or hashes) to be brute-force cracked with relative ease.</p>
<p>Limit Login Attempts blocks an Internet address from making further attempts after a specified limit on retries is reached, making a brute-force attack difficult or impossible.</p>
<p>Features</p>
<ul>
<li>Limit the number of retry attempts when logging in (for each IP). Fully customizable</li>
<li>Limit the number of attempts to log in using auth cookies in same way</li>
<li>Informs user about remaining retries or lockout time on login page</li>
<li>Optional logging, optional email notification</li>
<li>Handles server behind reverse proxy</li>
<li>It is possible to whitelist IPs using a filter. But you probably shouldn’t. 🙂</li>
</ul>

<p>Plugin uses standard actions and filters only.</p>


Limit Login Attempts

bad role

We had initial issues and tried again and it is working better.

Getting a lot better.


I absolutely hate bloated plugins, so I love this one. It's simple and works as expected. Guess it's wise to use a plugin such as this one, against brute force attacks.

Limit rate of login attempts, including by way of cookies, for each IP. Fully customizable.
