Why disable the WordPress xml-rpc

This plugin disables XML-RPC API in WordPress 3.5+ or above, which is enabled by default.
XML-RPC 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 XML-RPC 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 XML-RPC 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 XML-RPC 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.

Look the file changelog.txt for details

We can keep the size of the standard WordPress readme.txt file reasonable.
