Plugin - Flex Security

Practical WordPress hardening: login limits, XML-RPC, headers, enumeration protection, and optional captcha.

  • Security
  • Login
  • Headers

What it does

A lightweight toolkit — not a full WAF — that reduces brute-force logins, XML-RPC abuse, and user enumeration.

Optional Cloudflare Turnstile or Google reCAPTCHA, country rules, and a custom login URL.

Features

  • Failed-login limits, lockouts, and permanent IP blocks
  • Custom login URL and hide wp-admin for guests
  • Disable XML-RPC and the theme / plugin file editor
  • Block user enumeration and hide the WordPress version
  • Optional Turnstile / reCAPTCHA and country allow / restrict lists

Get it
