Help Someone Is Trying To Hack My Wordpress Site by tgmservice: 7:43am On Dec 04, 2016
So i just built this cool wordpress site for a client. And installed some all necessary stuffs.
I installed this secuirity plugin that lets me know by mail if someone is trying to login into my site.
The thing is that there is the particular ip address from ukriane that has always been trying the acess my wp-admin.
I have installed a plugin that enables change the www.mysite.com/wp-admin url but i still keep geting those notifications, though he keeps failing the login attempt.

he's most likely using brute force, use google and move this to webmasters page and not programming

he is most likely trying to brute force, Google for a plugin that blocks an IP after a certain number of fail attempt. let's say 15 . just Google for a plugin to prevent brute force

He's not really a serious hacker bro. He's more like a kiddie probably sitting at one corner of his mom's bed trying out your site with an online tutorial he watched on bruteforce.

If you love to catch some fun. Lol wait a bit and see what's he's gonna be up to after that. Really seriously. Lol

If you don't have time for that get a plugin and block his IP.
