[Tuton]

I also regularly use Anti-Malware Security and Brute-Force Firewall which I find very good.

I used to use iThemes pro, it's light because most of the security measures are just htaccess rules. Now I use custom codes + fail2ban + cloudflare, all the free stuffs because I'm cheap

can we combine 2 security plugin example bulletproof security with all in one security? on 1 site

UPON MY YEARS OF EXPERIENCE . . . .

FIRST) There's nothing can beat Sucuri PAID version . . . . But too costly, was able to afford it just for few months . . .

SECOND) iThemes security pro: have been using since last 1 year . . . Lite on system , . . lots of useful security features , but yet low level of firerwall security (which gets quite enhanced with Cloudflare addition) . . .

THIRD) BPS Pro/BulletProof Security Pro: Used it for 1 year after purchasing , better firewall level than iThemes , but I couldn't like the GUI (Interface) much . . . so, yet having license for it I shifted with iThemes security pro . . .

If you gain good merging knowledge of combining BPS PRO + ITHEMES SECURITY PRO (both are compatible with each other) + CLOUDFLARE , then it'll reach quite near to SUCURI . . . . .


I HATE WORDFENCE SECURITY , TOO HEAVY FOR SYSTEM & PLUGINS COMPATIBILITY ISSUE . . .

From some digging, I found WP Cerber, that may be one of the best, if not best: https://wpcerber.com/

We should bring this to Babiabo, guys.

You dont need anything to be honest except for cloudflare and change your default dashboard login links

i think ninja firewall (WP Edition) is a real secret tip and could even beat Wordfence, because it uses less server resources than Wordfence and apparently detects more attacks.

this is also called "security by obscurity" and changes almost nothing.

ithemes security comes from plugin developers (envato). I don't think they have much expertise and skills, as "real" security specialists.

Who told you iThemes came from Envato developers ?

I vote for Sucuri.
If someone asks me "which do you prefer?
a- A plugin for securtiy which is developed by Security Company
b- Security plugin which developed by Developers

I always choose "a". But it's too pricy for me so i handle security things for projects.
sometimes i just use htacess tricks + custom made changes and cloudflare
sometimes im using ithemes plugin also cloudflare.

I agree with you ! It's a secret plugin.

Adding ShieldSecurity I am impressed I got the paid version and its worth every penny

I would suggest you watch this video which explains everything about these plugins and after that, you will realize why some plugins are just crap and not worth it to use.

Few months ago I notice that itheme security pro was blocking my users after they view few pages. I check on google and I found that its happen with many users.
After that I shift to wordfence .
