All-In-One Security (AIOS) features

Explore all of the features of AIOS, the WordPress security plugin from TeamUpdraft.

Login security

  • Detect and manage ‘admin’ usernames

    Identify default ‘admin’ usernames and guide users to change them to protect against brute force attacks.

  • Identify and correct identical login and display names

    Detect cases where the display name matches the username and provide guidance to improve login security.

  • Prevent user enumeration

    Block unauthorised access to URLs that can reveal sensitive information such as usernames or other details.

  • Control login attempts

    Prevent brute force attacks by limiting the number of failed login attempts. Choose how many login attempts are allowed, set lock out durations and more.

  • Force user logout

    Automatically log out users after a specified period of time. Unattended sessions are closed, reducing the risk of unauthorised access.

  • Manually approve new registrations

    Review and approve new user registrations to prevent spam and fake sign-ups.

  • Enhance WordPress salt security

    Adds 64 extra characters to WordPress salts, rotating them weekly. Makes cracking passwords virtually impossible, even if your database is stolen.

  • Monitor and manage active sessions

    If a user is logged in who shouldn’t be, log them out or add them to a blacklist.

  • Two-factor authentication (TFA)

    Require TFA for specific user roles. Supports Google Authenticator, Microsoft Authenticator, Authy and many more.

  • Disable PHP file editing

    Disable editing of PHP files (such as plugins and themes) via the dashboard. It’s often the first tool that attackers use as it allows for code execution.

  • Protect sensitive files

    Prevent access to files like readme.html that might reveal information about your WordPress installation.

Firewall

  • Get .htaccess firewall rules

    Deny access to the .htaccess and wp-config.php file. Disable the server signature and limit file uploads to a configurable size. Block access to the debug.log file and prevent Apache servers from listing the contents of a directory when an index.php file is not present.

  • Get PHP firewall rules

    PHP firewall rules prevent malicious users from exploiting well known vulnerabilities in XML-RPC. Safeguard your content by disabling RSS and atom feeds and avoid cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks.

  • Block fake Google bots and POST requests made by bots

    Block fake google bots and stop bots from making POST requests by blocking IP addresses where the user-agent and referrer fields are blank.

  • Utilise 6G firewall rules

    Employ flexible blacklist rules to reduce the number of malicious URL requests that hit your website (courtesy of Perishable Press).

  • Whitelist by plugin and user role

    Take greater control over your REST API Firewall settings with new options to whitelist specific plugins and user roles.

  • Comments for IP whitelists

    Easily identify and manage whitelisted IPs by adding custom comments to each entry. This gives you better visibility and control over manually added IP addresses.

  • And more

    Blacklist (and whitelist) IP ranges and user agents and block unauthorised access to data by disabling REST API access for non-logged in requests.

Spam prevention

  • Block spam coming from bots

    Reduce the load on your server and improve the user experience by automatically blocking spam comments from bots.
