The importance of user names in WordPress

I have a plugin that prevents multiple unsuccessful logins.

As can be seen, the spammers try several combinations like: admin (the default), then site name, and several others.

It is critical to create a user name that is different than the obvious names, especially the default username “admin”.

Another interesting thing is that I get both IPv4 as well as IPv6 IP addresses. More and more IPv6.

Also, a spammer will continuously try to hack you, because they have automated scripts.

So, it makes sense to block them for a longer time.

For example, I use these settings:

The plugin I am using is “Limit Login Attempts Reloaded”.

I am not affiliated with them in any way.
