The standard WordPress login page (wp-login.php) is arguably the most aggressively attacked URL on the internet. Botnets scan continuously for weak administrative passwords. To secure it, you must immediately implement Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) and limit login attempts.
Restricting Access by IP
For ultimate, uncrackable security, configure your server to only allow access to the wp-admin directory from specific, known IP addresses. This renders brute-force attacks useless.
Using a Static VPN IP
Because your home ISP IP address might change dynamically, utilizing a dedicated IP address provided by a premium service like NordVPN allows you to whitelist a static, permanent IP. This ensures you can securely manage your WordPress site from anywhere in the world.
