You really don't want to get hacked, so in this video I'm gonna show you step by step how to completely secure your WordPress website, once and for all. Let me show you what we'll be covering in this tutorial.

I'll show you how to set up maximum login attempts. How to hide your entire WordPress back-end. How to set up two-factor authentication. How to regain access to your website if you have locked out yourself. How to set up the notification center. How to close all the gates on your WordPress website. And of course, how to force your users to use strong passwords and two-factor authentication. Let's go secure your website right now.

Log into your WordPress admin. On your admin page you go to 'Plugins' - 'Add new' and we're going to type in "iThemes" and here you can find iThemes Security. It has more than one million active installations, because it is just a really good plugin to secure your website. And: it is completely free! We press on 'Install now' and then we press on 'Activate'. Well done. What you will notice is a new menu over there, and on your left side you have here a new menu. The first thing we do; we're gonna click on 'Settings' over here. And then we are at the setup. Let me walk you through it right now. We're gonna choose the type of website that suits you. If you have a webshop, an e-commerce website, please follow this tutorial and I will show you step by step how to configure your webshop. Because it is quite different than the other ones. If you have a 'Network website' a 'Non-profit', 'Blog' 'Portfolio' or 'Brochure'. This website is created for apartments. So I will say, this website is all about a brochure. A simple website to promote your own business. Enable Security check Pro. We're gonna need it later on. Press 'Next'. Who are you setting the website up? Well in this case it is my own personal website. Click on it. Do you want to secure your user accounts with password policy? I would say 'yes'! Because the weakest link in your security, is most of the time the passwords. If you enforce people to use a strong password, it can take a lot of time to crack those safe passwords. Press 'Next'. Then what do we want to do, we want to have local Brute Force. Yes. We want to have Security Check Pro. Of course. We want to also enable two-factor authentication. We want to have the Network Brute Force, we can scan our website automatically. Let's enable that also. The downside of this is if you are on cheap shared hosting, you might encounter some problems with performance. Keep that in mind for this feature. And we press 'Next'. We go to 'Login security'. Two factor authentication? Yes enable this. This is one of the most powerful ways to protect your website from unauthorized logins. Press 'Next'. We want to have local brute force, and we also want to have Network Brute Force. Yes enable them both, press 'Next'. The Site Check, press 'Next' and Security Check. Alright press 'Next'. Well done. Next one is the 'User groups'. In this case we can use the default groups. And then we can of course configure them per group. On the left side are all the user groups we will be covering in this tutorial. If you don't know the different user groups or the different roles,
then follow this video of mine. It's short but I will explain you in detail what all these roles and capabilities mean in WordPress. Very useful. So the settings of the administrators who can do everything on your website, should be like this. They can manage iThemes Security...
