Protect WordPress login with 2FA and brute-force controls
The WordPress login is one of the most frequently targeted entry points of a website. Automated bots test usernames, passwords and leaked credential combinations at scale.
Why this matters
A strong password helps, but it is only one layer. Admin and shop manager accounts deserve additional protection because access to such an account can have significant consequences.
What Merqivio Security adds

💰 The cost of doing nothing
A compromised account can lead to changed settings, new administrators, unwanted plugins, data access or disruption of a webshop. Extra login layers reduce the chance that one stolen password is enough.
Scan + protection: the strongest combination
An external scan shows which security signals are visible from the internet. The €9.95 full report reveals the concrete findings and remediation advice. Merqivio Security then adds protection and monitoring from inside WordPress.
Frequently asked questions
Why use 2FA if I already have a strong password?
2FA adds a second factor, so a stolen or reused password alone is less likely to be enough for access.
Do lockouts stop every login attack?
No. Lockouts and captcha reduce certain automated attempts, but they belong in a broader security approach.
No security plugin can guarantee absolute security. Updates, secure hosting, backups and responsible administration remain essential.
