IMPORTANT: This plugin will ONLY WORK if you have already bought an SSL certificate through your hosting provider. If you have issues with this plugin be sure to first check that you have an SSL certificate, and if issues still persist you might consider contacting your hosting provider as they regularly make updates that can affect these plugins.
If you need to get your web hosting and a Free SSL Certificate (note - I’ll earn a small commission and you’ll earn a discount when you use this link):

The internet is a BIG place, and there are plenty of bad guys lurking in the shadows waiting to steal your personal information. So today I'm going to show you How to Secure Your Website From Hackers! And it can be done in LESS than a few clicks with the iThemes Security plugin!
I'll also show you how to scan your website for Malware anytime you need, as well as how to add a secure padlock (SSL Certificate) to your site's URL so visitors know it's safe.
But first, WHY do hackers hack websites?
1. To obtain credit card information.
2. To obtain contact info to sell to unethical marketers.
3. To obtain usernames and passwords to gain control of your server resources.
4. Malvertising (sending spam to your website visitors and subscribers)
5. SEO Spam (using your site's authority to promote fake information on google)
6. Other classified info you may have.
So to keep that from happening, just follow the tutorial to keep your website SAFE and SECURE!

Excellent video. This is the third video I have watched from your KZread channel and I have learned a lots of new things. If I were to ask anything it would be the questions that I asked concerning your video on creating a contact form. There were just a couple of things that were not covered in that video.
You are a great teacher at present . Love you brother.
Great tips! Finally someone who explains something decent.

Hey, great vid as always! It made me think of my next planned website. Can you tell what exactly is needed, how many plugins to make a (smallish) e-commerce website secure? Like what is needed to make a website secure as possible: SSL, Sucuri and so on. It would help lot of viewers to ease their minds as website creation or making a website as secure as possible can be really overwhelming.
Your video was made in May, yet in August 2021 my plugin screens look nothing like any of yours. Is your tutorial redundant already? Or, have I downloaded a clone? Also, my icon in the dashboard has not tiny man in it. It's just a plain white shield with a border.
So there is no need for "limited login attempts" seperate plugin ?
Bro. Will changing backend ur cause any issues. I saw many artices showing it may cause some problems
Good content. Thanks
Very well-explained
Superb.. You are really great.. wish you all the best.. From Bangladesh

THANK YOU ... THANK YOU... THANK YOU!!!!
Of course my screens didn’t look like yours. 😫. They made some changes. When I changed the backend login from WP Admin to something else, it does say not found in the URL, but I noteiced that my "under construction" page does come up. I'm not getting the 404 page. Will I get the 404 page once my site is live?
Is it still relevant to create website,blog or ecommerce
QUESTION!! i'm still able to access the login page through the wp-login....how do I fix this?
hello; ithemes seems to be no longer available. which other safe plugin can we use to protect our websites? thanks

I just added the security to my website but it now allows both the original wp-admin and my new security password to access my dashboard, I did check it and it retained and showed success with the changed password ???
Thanks heaps 🙂
very cool vid - just one major point at 4:49 incl your last name in a pwd or any other security topic related to your website isnt the best advice especially in a video about website security
I am curious, do you know anything about html or css...? You just use wordpress
When I go to add in the plugin for ithemes security it says its not compatible with wordpress? anyone else having this issue? I think it wants to force us into using Jetpack.
Thank you very much.

Hey there, well, I was wondering this as well (I have a Chromebook from Asus) but that works just fine since you only need your webbrowser and an internet connection. So yes no problem because Wordpress is not actually downloaded on your computer but more on your server.

Easy as pie. - Download a rollback plugin. - Rollback to a previous version of the iThemes Security Plugin. - Done.
so no need for Loginizer anymore?
Thanks, Levi. What if I use more than one computer to access my admin, and thus one to two IP addresses (a desktop and a Chromebook, or a laptop and a tablet, when traveling). Can I input more than one IP address, so that I am not locked out of or have my account suspended when it's me using various devices depending on where I am at the time I need to log in? Thanks, again.

Yes, you can. It is called a whitelist so because you can list off multiple IP addresses. That way you can have multiple computers that are labeled as "safe" to login to your site.

Hi I just watched the other video from your channel about how to secure websites from hackers and u said that that video was outdated and you are working on the revised one. Is this it? But I see some comments that the iTheme Security is not working or not the same with yours. Do you have another revised version of how to secure website from hackers. Something that actually works? Please advise.

as I am WordPress expert and old user, I highly recommend to use only one plugin for same function as if you run more than one plugin to do same task they will work against each other and reflect the functionality and this will any way affect your site loading or smoothly running

Export your database from phpmyadmin 3.Goto live server and create a database and user assign user to that db and give all privilege to that user. 4.Now goto your files on live server and upload the zip file in the root public fold er 5. Now extract the zip file and open wp-config and change the db name user name and password according to the one you created on live. 6. Import your db inside phpmyadmin on live server 7.open wp-options table and chahe the home and site url with your domain url 8. Goto browser and check the website THANK YOU.

Great, but the pain is in restoring the back up. U need to do a tutorial on that, especially on restoring a broken site.
@vigilantezack

Using this method would definitely be a pain. If the website is completely hacked/trashed, then it must be fully deleted, then a fresh/blank copy of WordPress installed, followed by Updraft, followed by loading a backup copy/zip, then restoring it. In this case, you would be better off using backups stored at the hosting company, if the host stores backups for you, just use their restore tool. I prefer my host to have backups and then I double it up with Updraft and those are sent offsite to Amazon S3. WPEngine, SiteGround, and may others, have some built-in backups, whether 7 days or 30 days, it's easier to use theirs if you can.
Why broooo😭😭😭
