Why disable the WordPress xmlrpc

This plugin disables XMLRPC API in WordPress 3.5+ or above, which is enabled by default.
XMLRPC on WordPress is actually an API or “application program interface“.
It gives developers who make mobile apps, desktop apps and other services the ability to talk to your WordPress site.
Most users don’t need WordPress XMLRPC functionality, and it’s one of the most common causes for exploits.
If you want to access and publish to your blog remotely, then you need XMLRPC enabled.

Why should we disable pingbacks?

Pingback allows you to notify other bloggers that you have linked to their article on your website.
A WordPress website with Pingback enabled can be used in DDOS attacks against other websites.
An attacker can exploit pingback functionality through simple command and an XMLRPC request.

Why disable Json WordPress Rest API

(disable WordPress Rest API)
Block User enumeration to improve security.

The REST API (new WordPress 4.7) allows for anonymous access and this means that anyone can list all
the users of a website. This will enable botnets to try and Bruteforce attack a website with the user’s credentials.

Brute Force Login Protection

A brute-force attack is an attempt to discover a password by systematically trying every
possible combination of letters, numbers, and symbols until you discover the one correct combination
that works.
Our plugin will protect your site against Brute Force Attack, by restrict access to login page to
whitelisted IP addresses.
Otherwise, your login page will request your wordpress user email.
It is not necessary Limit Login Attempts. Read below about Rate Limiting.

Rate Limiting

Rate Limiting is a substitute to Limit Login Attempts.
Bots and Hackers can make a lot of visits in a short time period.
We can just limit a number of visits.

Simple Login Lockdown

Rate Limiting is a substitute to Simple Login Lockdown. Read above.

Rename wp-login.php

Rate Limiting is a substitute to Rename wp-login.php. Read above.

Our plugin will check your status on Google regarding Google Safe Browsing.
Google Safe Browsing is a service provided by Google to help protect users from malicious websites on the internet.
To simplify your inquiry, avoiding the need to create a Google account to obtain an API,
we will perform this query for you.
We will send your domain address and Google will inform us whether it considers your site safe or not.
Obviously, if it does not consider it safe, it will not send visitors to your site.
Instead, it will inform those who intend to visit your site that it is dangerous.
Hence the importance of always monitoring this. We will add that on your plugin dashboard.
This collected data (domain name) will only be used to query Google and will not be stored.
For more information about this, visit Google.
