iThemes Security Pro 9.0.1
Description
iThemes Security Pro is a WordPress security plugin designed to help protect your site quickly and with less manual effort. It targets common threats such as automated login attacks, suspicious requests, and unexpected changes to core files.
With features like brute force protection, file change detection, and 404 detection, it helps you notice problems early and respond before they affect visitors or content. It also supports safer authentication by hiding the login and admin entry points.
For added resilience, iThemes Security Pro includes database backups and helps you strengthen WordPress security values (salts & keys).
