Hi! Yes, you can install WP Cerber, but I’ve never tested such a combination. Give it a shot.
So how did this go? I have some PRO licenses (still awaiting ticket response btw) but my security team installs iThemes to lockdown the site. I like CERBER for country restrictions and real-time monitor. I too would like these features, don’t want to destroy or slow down my sites though.

@inyerface What’s the number of your support ticket, I’ll check it.
I am successfully running Cerber with iThemes with no signs of slowing the site. Scanner is showing minimal security risk, or 100% safe.

@inyerface didn’t test yet, sorry.
But planning to install it shortly.
How did you manage settings for both plugins (iThemes + Cerber) when they both have the same options, like XML-RPC / REST API requests, Custom login URL, etc?
Did you enable them at both plugins or had to chose one of them?
Thanks.

I wonder what compels you to install iThemes Security? You can end up with an unsafe conflict.

In my case, I have a pre-existing iThemes Security Pro installation, although I am now finding Cerber to be more effective at protecting against spam bots.
