SecureFusion acts as a robust shield against many common attack types, including login attempts and DDoS attacks via XML-RPC. 
It not only enhances security but also significantly improves your site’s performance. 
By helping to prevent unauthorized access and collection of sensitive information from your site, it neutralizes many attack vectors. 
This is an effective solution for ensuring user safety and maintaining the speed of your site.
Features:
<h4>XMLRPC</h4>
SecureFusion aids in managing your critical XML-RPC services, often a prime target for WordPress hack attempts and spam comments. 
The plugin allows you to selectively disable specific XML-RPC services, defending your site from XML-RPC attacks like spam comments without entirely disabling all XML-RPC services. 
However, be aware that blocking all XML-RPC requests may impact the interaction of certain applications and services with WordPress.
<ul>
<li>
XML-RPC FULL PROTECTION (Disable all XML-RPC) 
This feature blocks all incoming XML-RPC requests, offering an effective countermeasure against various remote attacks. 
Remember, this might impact certain functionalities that rely on XML-RPC.
</li>
<li>
XML-RPC LOGIN PROTECTION 
This feature denies remote login requests made via XML-RPC, providing an extra line of defense against brute force login attempts.
</li>
<li>
XML-RPC PINGBACK PROTECTION 
This feature blocks remote pingback requests, assisting in the prevention of DDoS attacks.
</li>
<li>
SELF PINGBACK PROTECTION 
This feature prevents remote self pingback requests, further strengthening your defenses against DDoS attacks.
</li>
</ul>
<h4>SSL</h4>
SecureFusion facilitates SSL integration into your site, provided you have an SSL certificate purchased from any SSL dealer or acquired through a free SSL service like Cloudflare. 
The plugin forces the redirection of selected zone URLs on your site to HTTPS/SSL. 
Note that SSL certificates must always be valid and correctly configured; otherwise, users may face issues accessing the site.
<ul>
<li>
Enable HTTPS / SSL 
Enforces the use of HTTPS/SSL across your site, ensuring that data is encrypted during transmission.
</li>
<li>
Force HTTPS Login 
Redirects login page protocol from HTTP to HTTPS.
</li>
<li>
Force HTTPS Admin 
Redirects admin page protocol from HTTP to HTTPS.
</li>
<li>
Force HTTPS Front Page 
Redirects front page protocol from HTTP to HTTPS.
</li>
</ul>
<h4>Login</h4>
<ul>
<li>
Login Attempt Limit 
Set the maximum number of login attempts and the waiting time after reaching this limit to prevent brute force attacks on your login page.
</li>
<li>
Change Login Error 
SecureFusion allows you to modify default login errors, making it harder for potential attackers to gather information.
</li>
<li>
Change Admin Username 
This feature lets you change your administrator’s username (e.g., the default ‘admin’ username), making it more difficult to guess user credentials. This provides an obscurity layer rather than direct protection from SQL vulnerabilities. (Note: This changes the username, not the numerical User ID).
</li>
<li>
New Custom Login URL 
This feature lets you change your login page URL name. 
Be aware that if your site uses SSL/HTTPS, ensure your overall SSL configuration is correct and all resources load securely after any URL changes to avoid potential issues.
</li>
</ul>
<h4>Firewall</h4>
<ul>
<li>
Filter Bad Requests 
The plugin helps secure your site against various attacks such as XSS, CSRF, and Code Injections.
</li>
<li>
Disable Rest API 
SecureFusion helps safeguard sensitive information by allowing you to disable REST API endpoints, which can prevent them from being used by attackers for information disclosure or exploitation. 
However, keep in mind that disabling the REST API can restrict the functionality of your WordPress site since some plugins and themes depend on it.
</li>
</ul>

Avatar Manager


First off great that this plugin works, doesn’t cause download of huge images to display as small avatars and seems to work well 🙂



I like that it supports gravatar as a default.



I'm not sure it is still supported but if it is, it needs to have at least meta data updated so everything doesn't point to moved pages and needs to be marked as tested in release 6.4.2 or so...


Works in WP 6.4.2, Not sure is Still Supported
