How Login Armor works
Show full descriptionShow less
🇫🇷 Fully translated into French. Interface et documentation intégralement disponibles en français.
Thirteen security modules. One lightweight plugin. No premium tier.
Login Armor protects WordPress login, accounts and administration with thirteen independent modules. It is built for agencies, freelancers and site owners who want practical security, clear evidence and safe defaults without a remote dashboard, bundled telemetry or upsells.
Why Login Armor
Complete and free: every module is included under the GPL.
Lightweight: modules load only when needed and normal login checks add less than 2 ms on a typical setup.
Private by default: data stays on your site. Optional external calls are disabled until you enable the related feature.
Ready for real sites: multisite support, reverse-proxy controls, WP-CLI commands and production-safe defaults.
Thirteen security modules
Hide Login: replace wp-login.php with a private slug and return a 404 or redirect blocked visitors to a chosen URL.
Brute Force Protection: escalating lockouts, subnet blocking, trusted proxy headers and coverage for login, password recovery, registration, XML-RPC and REST users.
Hardening: fifteen controls for XML-RPC, pingbacks, file editing, version exposure, application passwords, author enumeration, reserved usernames, honeypots and new-admin alerts.
Two-Factor Authentication: TOTP, email codes, backup codes, trusted devices, per-role enforcement, grace periods and recovery.
Detection and Incidents: group raw events into attack patterns with severity, timelines, source IPs, targeted users and one-click actions.
Activity Log: tamper-evident admin audit trail with filters, CSV export, retention controls and optional signed SIEM forwarding.
Security Headers: CSP, X-Frame-Options, Permissions-Policy, Referrer-Policy and X-Content-Type-Options for login and lockout pages, with optional site-wide baseline headers.
Breach Check: privacy-preserving Have I Been Pwned password checks and an optional XposedOrNot email check.
Password Policy: length and character rules, username exclusion, breached-password rejection and optional non-locking expiration reminders.
Session Management: idle timeout, maximum lifetime, optional single-device access and one-click revocation of other sessions.
IP Geolocation: cached country lookup for IPs shown in Incidents and Events, with private ranges excluded.
Request Firewall: optional, monitor-first filtering of malicious paths, query strings and HTTP methods, with administrator exclusions and IP/path allowlists.
Bot Challenge: an invisible proof-of-work the browser solves before the login form is accepted, an alternative to CAPTCHAs with no external service; monitor-first, then enforce.
Additional tools
Login Armor also includes guided onboarding, a 0-100 security score, conflict detection, email/Slack/Discord/webhook notifications, a dashboard widget and a complete WP-CLI suite.
The optional AI Security Briefing uses your own WordPress AI connector to explain a thirty-day security snapshot or a single incident. It always starts with deterministic facts, works without AI and sends nothing until an administrator explicitly requests an analysis.
GPL forever. PHP 8.1+. WordPress 6.8+. Zero dependencies.
Treize modules de sécurité. Une seule extension légère. Aucune version premium.
Login Armor protège la connexion, les comptes et l’administration de WordPress grâce à treize modules indépendants. L’extension s’adresse aux agences, freelances et propriétaires de sites qui veulent une sécurité concrète, des preuves lisibles et des réglages sûrs, sans tableau de bord distant, télémétrie imposée ni upsell.
Pourquoi Login Armor
Complet et gratuit : tous les modules sont inclus sous licence GPL.
Léger : les modules se chargent uniquement lorsque nécessaire et les contrôles ajoutent moins de 2 ms sur une connexion normale.
Privé par défaut : les données restent sur votre site. Les appels externes optionnels sont désactivés tant que vous n’activez pas la fonction concernée.
Prêt pour la production : multisite, reverse proxies, commandes WP-CLI et réglages par défaut sécurisés.
Treize modules de sécurité
Masquer la connexion : remplace wp-login.php par un slug privé et renvoie une 404 ou redirige les visiteurs bloqués vers l’URL choisie.
Protection contre la force brute : verrouillages progressifs, blocage de sous-réseaux, proxies de confiance et protection de la connexion, récupération, inscription, XML-RPC et REST users.
Renforcement : quinze contrôles pour XML-RPC, les pingbacks, l’éditeur de fichiers, la version, les mots de passe applicatifs, l’énumération d’auteurs, les identifiants réservés, le pot de miel et les alertes nouvel administrateur.
Authentification à deux facteurs : TOTP, codes par e-mail, codes de secours, appareils de confiance, application par rôle, période de grâce et récupération.
Détection et incidents : regroupe les événements en scénarios d’attaque avec sévérité, chronologie, IP sources, comptes ciblés et actions immédiates.
Journal d’activité : piste d’audit admin infalsifiable avec filtres, export CSV, rétention et transfert SIEM signé optionnel.
En-têtes de sécurité : CSP, X-Frame-Options, Permissions-Policy, Referrer-Policy et X-Content-Type-Options pour les pages de connexion et de verrouillage, avec en-têtes de base optionnels sur tout le site.
Détection de fuites : vérification confidentielle des mots de passe via Have I Been Pwned et contrôle optionnel des e-mails via XposedOrNot.
Politique de mot de passe : longueur, classes de caractères, exclusion de l’identifiant, rejet des mots de passe compromis et rappels d’expiration non bloquants.
Gestion des sessions : délai d’inactivité, durée maximale, accès limité à un appareil et révocation des autres sessions.
Géolocalisation IP : pays des IP affichées dans Incidents et Événements, avec cache et exclusion des plages privées.
Pare-feu de requêtes : filtrage optionnel, d’abord en surveillance, des chemins, requêtes et méthodes HTTP malveillants, avec exclusion des administrateurs et listes d’autorisation IP/chemins.
Défi anti-bot : une preuve de calcul invisible résolue par le navigateur avant validation du formulaire de connexion, alternative aux CAPTCHA sans service externe ; d’abord en surveillance, puis en blocage.
Outils complémentaires
Login Armor inclut aussi un assistant de configuration, un score de sécurité de 0 à 100, la détection de conflits, les notifications par e-mail, Slack, Discord ou webhook, un widget de tableau de bord et une suite WP-CLI complète.
Le briefing de sécurité IA optionnel utilise votre propre connecteur IA WordPress pour expliquer les trente derniers jours ou un incident précis. Il commence toujours par des faits déterministes, fonctionne sans IA et n’envoie rien tant qu’un administrateur ne demande pas explicitement une analyse.

External Services
Login Armor has no telemetry and requires no Login Armor account. The following services are contacted only when WordPress itself or an administrator enables the related feature.
WordPress AI connector (optional)
The AI Security Briefing sends a security prompt through the administrator’s own WordPress AI connector only after they click an analysis button. Minimised mode sends counts, categories, severities and role buckets without clear IP addresses or usernames. Explicit deep mode also sends IP addresses and event details. Login Armor stores no provider API key. The selected AI provider’s terms and privacy policy apply.
Slack, Discord or custom webhook (optional)
When an administrator enables an incident notification channel, Login Armor sends the incident type, severity, IP address, target username, event count and site URL to the configured endpoint. The separate signed Activity Log forwarding option sends the event, object, user ID/login/role, IP address, description, integrity hashes, site URL and plugin version to the administrator’s SIEM or custom webhook.
Slack: Terms | Privacy
Discord: Terms | Privacy
Custom webhook: terms and privacy are controlled by the administrator’s chosen endpoint.
Gravatar
The Activity Log uses WordPress core’s get_avatar(). If avatars are enabled in WordPress, a hashed email address may be sent to Gravatar to retrieve the image.
Gravatar: Terms | Privacy
Have I Been Pwned (optional)
Breach Check and the optional compromised-password policy send only the first 5 characters of a password’s SHA-1 hash to the Pwned Passwords API. The password and full hash never leave the site. Checks fail soft if the service is unavailable. Public registration and password-reset validation do not call the service; authenticated checks remain active.
Have I Been Pwned: Privacy | Acceptable Use
XposedOrNot (optional)
The separate Email check, disabled by default, sends the user’s email address and a plugin-identifying User-Agent to XposedOrNot when a user is created or changes email.
XposedOrNot: Service | Privacy
ipwho.is (optional)
IP Geolocation sends a displayed public IP address to ipwho.is when an administrator opens Incidents or Events. Results are cached for 30 days. Private and reserved ranges are never sent, and developers can replace the lookup through the login_armor_geoip_lookup filter.
