Essential User Security Check on your WordPress website

One of the common ways that a hacker uses to hack your WordPress website is a weak user account even after various layers of authentications. A user account can create various use cases to make it vulnerable. Consider you website like multi door building and every user is a door into that building. Poor security for just one user account can open up your entire building, or site, to vulnerabilities that lead to hacks.

For example, if your site has 5 Administrative with strong passwords and all using two-factor authentication for their secondary layer of protection. But ONE user has a weak password that has likely been published online, or if their user account has sat dormant for months, giving hackers or bots enough time to potentially break their password, then the entire building, or site, is vulnerable by that one account.

Good user-level security best practices are absolutely essential for protecting your WordPress sites.
