• Implement a web application firewall, called Traffic Inspector
• Limit login attempts
• Monitor login attempts
• Create IP whitelists or blacklists to restrict access
• Change your login page URL.
• Use two-factor authentication, including options for controlling who has to use two-factor
• Disable XML-RPC and REST API (optional – your site might actually need the API to function)
