How to improve your site security with security questions added to the Wordpress login screen
There are many different ways to protect your Wordpress admin area.
I've already published a few related tutorials and here they are again:
How to add an extra security layer to your Wordpress site
How to efficiently block a Wordpress user. The right way.
Why and how to create automatically expiring temporary login accounts in Wordpress
Today, I'm going to show you another method ... login security questions ...
Many websites will require you to add security questions on your account for identity verification, so I'm pretty sure that you already know how it works.
Basically, a security question added to your Wordpress site’s login screen acts like an additional password. It means, that your users can choose a given question from a pre-defined list of random questions and then enter an answer to that specific question.
Which obviously makes it difficult for hackers to access your website using compromised passwords or email addresses.
So I've decided to create a short tutorial where I will show you how easy is to create an additional security layer with security questions added to the Wordpress login screen.
