Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about Iron Security – WordPress Security Plugin
Iron Security is lightweight, fast, and focused on the most effective hardening techniques. Instead of bloated features, it delivers practical tools that directly protect your WordPress site from real threats.
Absolutely. Iron Security features an intuitive dashboard with clear explanations for each setting. Whether you’re new to WordPress or a seasoned developer, you’ll find it easy to set up and use.
By replacing the default /wp-admin or /wp-login.php URLs, you reduce the risk of automated brute force attacks. Bots and attackers can’t easily locate your login page, adding an extra layer of protection.
Their IP will be temporarily blocked based on your configured settings. You can set how many failed attempts are allowed, how long the lockout lasts, and monitor the attempt logs directly from the plugin dashboard.
WordPress assigns the first admin user an ID of 1 — a known target for attacks. Iron Security helps you avoid this by allowing you to assign a different user ID to your admin account, reducing exposure to targeted exploits.
Yes. These features can be optionally disabled. XML-RPC and REST API are common targets for attacks like brute force or user data enumeration. If you don’t use them, disabling them can significantly reduce your attack surface.
HTTP security headers such as X-Frame-Options, Content-Security-Policy, and Strict-Transport-Security enhance browser-level security. They help protect your site against XSS, clickjacking, and other injection-based attacks. Iron Security lets you enable these headers with just a few clicks.
No. Iron Security is performance-focused and doesn't include heavy scans or background processes. It’s designed to secure your site without impacting loading speed or user experience.
Yes, Iron Security works seamlessly with WooCommerce. It protects your admin area, login forms, and critical files without interfering with your store's functionality or customer experience.
