WordPress Security Tools That Will Stop Spammers

Monday Memos is a short list of the best finds across the internet to start your week off right.
Today I have some WordPress security resources to help you block spammers. Here’s four links with tips and tricks to kick start your Monday.
1) Block hackers coming into your website with a great security plugin. WordPress Firewall works by seeking out suspicious-looking web requests, detects SQL injection attacks, and even provides you with an email showing the attack reports.
2) Put a stop to login attempts and even see who is trying to hack your website. Login LockDown, which is a free plugin, provides IP address information of those who have failed to login to your website. After a certain number of attempts access is denied. This is especially good to use to protect your password.
3) Want to detect and fix any security holes on your WordPress site? Then you will love iThemes Security (previously known as Better WP Security). With this free plugin you can add 30 different ways to protect your website as well as creating useful backups.
4) Add stronger security with .htaccess WordPress security protection provided by BulletProof Security. The free plugin stops a hackers’ malicious scripts in its tracks, and monitors suspicious activity that might be occurring.
Have fun with these Monday Tips and Tools.
Wishing you a FAN-tastic week!
