    My website has recently had a lot of attacks. There has been an Increased Attack Rate and attempted logins with usernames that don’t exist (ie several attempted logins from around the world with the same attempted username, something related to the domain name).

    I have the free version of Wordfence installed on my site.

    Is my site ok or would you suggest that I do something to further protect my site?

    Thank you.

    Hey @redelefant,

    I know it’s always alarming to see these attacks, but they’re actually quite normal. There’s only so much we can d to prevent attacks, it’s more about making sure they aren’t successful, which it sounds like Wordfence is doing. If you’re using strong passwords and two-factor I wouldn’t worry too much.

    Please let me know if you have any other questions.

    Thanks,

    Gerroald
