Adding a second layer of authentication is not really necessary. # Users / visitors to your site will not be able to register or login # to your site without also having the additional login information. # htpasswd encrypts passwords using either a version of MD5 modified for Apache, # or the system's crypt() routine. Files managed by htpasswd may contain both types # of passwords; some user records may have MD5-encrypted passwords while others in # the same file may have passwords encrypted with crypt(). # User accounts and passwords can be added in your host Control Panel or directly # in the .htpasswd file. # The .htpasswd file should be in a Server protected directory and not in a public # directory. # You can specify a single specific user or use valid-user to allow all valid # user accounts to be able to login to your site. # EXAMPLE: #AuthType basic #AuthGroupFile /dev/null #AuthUserFile /path/to/protected/server/directory/.htpasswd #AuthName "Password Protected Area" #require user Zippy #require valid-user # ADD YOUR CURRENT IP ADDRESS TO THIS FILE # This will then require that you FTP to your site and manually change the IP # address in this .htaccess file. And users will not be able to register or login # to your site without having their IP addresses added to this file. It is possible # to automate this, but unfortunately in order to not lock you out of your own site # the IP address would have to be removed on exiting your site. This means that if # you are not currently logged in then no additional security is in effect. # If you are not going to access or login to your site for a long time and you # are not allowing additional users to access your site then # manually adding an IP address may be an option you want to use temporarily. # EXAMPLE: #AuthUserFile /dev/null #AuthGroupFile /dev/null #AuthName "Password Protected Area" #AuthType Basic #order deny,allow #deny from all # whitelist home IP address #allow from 64.233.169.99 # whitelist work IP address #allow from 69.147.114.210 #allow from 199.239.136.200 # IP while in Kentucky; delete when back #allow from 128.163.2.27 # END OPTIONAL WP-ADMIN ADDITIONAL SECURITY MEASURES # REQUEST METHODS FILTERED RewriteEngine On RewriteCond %{REQUEST_METHOD} ^(HEAD|TRACE|DELETE|TRACK|DEBUG) [NC] RewriteRule ^(.*)$ - [F,L] # BEGIN CUSTOM CODE WPADMIN PLUGIN FIXES: Add ONLY WPADMIN personal plugin fixes code here # CCWPF # END CUSTOM CODE WPADMIN PLUGIN FIXES # Allow wp-admin files that are called by plugins # Fix for WP Press This RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} (press-this\.php) [NC] RewriteRule . - [S=1] # BEGIN BPSQSE-check BPS QUERY STRING EXPLOITS AND FILTERS # BPSQSE-check BPS QUERY STRING EXPLOITS AND FILTERS # WORDPRESS WILL BREAK IF ALL THE BPSQSE FILTERS ARE DELETED RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} (%0A|%0D|%27|%3C|%3E|%00) [NC,OR] RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} (libwww-perl|wget|python|nikto|curl|scan|java|winhttp|HTTrack|clshttp|archiver|loader|email|harvest|extract|grab|miner) [NC,OR] RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} \?\ HTTP/ [NC,OR] RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} \/\*\ HTTP/ [NC,OR] RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} etc/passwd [NC,OR] RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} cgi-bin [NC,OR] RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} (%0A|%0D) [NC,OR] RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} owssvr\.dll [NC,OR] RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} (%0A|%0D|%27|%3C|%3E|%00) [NC,OR] RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} \.opendirviewer\.
