WordPress login security

Your WordPress login, locked down in under a minute.

Loginizer blocks the repeated login attempts bots use to break into WordPress sites, then layers on two-factor authentication, reCAPTCHA and automatic IP lockouts. It ships with optimal defaults, so protection starts the second you activate it.

Features

Six layers of defence, one plugin

Loginizer hardens the core of WordPress where attacks actually land — the login form. Every layer works out of the box and stays fully adjustable.

Brute force protection
Stops hackers' repeated attempts to guess your credentials. Optimal thresholds are pre-configured, so the shield is up the moment you activate the plugin.
reCAPTCHA challenges
Protects your forms from fraud and abuse by putting complex challenges in front of automated traffic before it ever reaches your credentials.
Automatic IP lockout
Lock out an IP address automatically after a maximum number of failed attempts. Sensible defaults ship with the plugin and every threshold is yours to change.
Two-factor authentication
Require a second factor over email, mobile or an authenticator app, so a stolen password on its own is never enough to reach your dashboard.
IP allow & deny lists
Curate the trusted and untrusted addresses in your world. Decide exactly which users and networks are allowed to reach the login screen at all.
Failed attempt logs
Detailed records of failed logins and other suspicious activity, so you can monitor what is knocking at the door and tighten the rules that matter.

How it works

From install to hardened, in four steps

There is no onboarding wizard to sit through. Activate the plugin, then tighten the screws at your own pace.

01

Install and activate

Add Loginizer straight from the WordPress plugin directory. No account, no API key, no settings screen you have to learn first.

02

Optimal defaults apply

Brute force protection and IP lockouts go live immediately, using a configuration that is already tuned for a typical WordPress site.

03

Layer on 2FA and CAPTCHA

Switch on two-factor authentication and reCAPTCHA when you want a second line of defence in front of the login form.

04

Monitor and refine

Review the failed attempt log, adjust lockout thresholds and curate your allow and deny lists as your traffic changes.

Testimonials

What maintainers say about it

Developers, agencies and maintenance teams lean on Loginizer to keep the login screen quiet across the sites they look after.

Loginizer went on every site in our care and the failed login noise dropped off a cliff within a week. The defaults were sensible enough that we barely touched a setting.
Priya Raghunathan WordPress maintenance lead
Two-factor over email plus the IP lockout rules was exactly the layer my client sites were missing. Setup took a coffee break, not a sprint.
Marcus Ivey Freelance web developer
The failed attempt log is the part I use most. Being able to see which addresses keep knocking makes the deny list write itself.

Questions people ask before installing

Yes. The core plugin is free and published on the WordPress.org plugin directory, with brute force protection, IP lockouts, allow and deny lists and failed attempt logs included. Loginizer Pro adds further protection on a paid plan starting at $24 per year.

No. Loginizer ships with a default optimal configuration, so brute force protection is live as soon as the plugin is activated. Every threshold is still yours to change whenever you want to tighten or relax it.

Loginizer counts failed login attempts per IP address. Once an address goes past the maximum number of retries it is locked out automatically for a set period, so repeated password guessing stops long before it has a chance to succeed.

You can require a second factor over email, over mobile, or through an authenticator app. Whichever you choose, a stolen password on its own is no longer enough for anyone to reach your dashboard.

Yes. Allow and deny lists let you mark trusted addresses that are never locked out, and untrusted addresses that are blocked from reaching the login form at all.

Loginizer keeps detailed logs of failed attempts and other suspicious login activity. Review them at any time to see which addresses keep knocking and adjust your lockout rules accordingly.
