Restricting WordPress User Access Rights

Post by rifathasan »

If your WordPress site has multiple user accounts, we recommend changing each user's roles to limit their access to only what they need. WordPress has six roles that you can choose for each user. By limiting the number of users with admin privileges, you reduce the chance that an attacker can hack their way into an admin account and limit the damage that can be done if an attacker correctly guesses a user's credentials. See our guide on how to change WordPress user permissions .

Use WordPress Monitoring
Having a monitoring system on your fantuan database site will alert you to any suspicious activity that occurs on your site. Ideally, your other measures should have prevented such activity, but it is better to know about it sooner rather than later. You can use a WordPress monitoring plugin to get an alert if a violation occurs.

Keep a log of user actions
Here’s another way to get ahead of problems before they happen: Create a log of all user activity on your site and periodically check the log for suspicious activity. This way, you’ll see if another user is behaving suspiciously (like trying to change a password , modifying theme or plugin files , or installing or deactivating plugins without permission). Logs are also useful for cleanup after a hack, showing what went wrong and when. This doesn’t mean that every password or file change is always a sign of a hacker on your team. However, if you have a lot of external contributors and you’re granting them access, it’s always a good idea to keep an eye on what’s going on.
