Few days ago one of my sites got brute force attacked. The site is hosted on a shared server, and the webhosting shut my site down for consuming too much resources. After that I decided to dig into this issue a little deeper, so I started a discussion on a LinkedIn Group called “WordPress Developers.”
My question is: “My site got brute force attacked. Anyone had the same experiences, would you please share how your hosting company dealt with it? Any suggestions on preventing DDOS or brute force attacks, or hosting recommendation are welcome!”
