GhostGate

Details
View on WordPress

GhostGate is a lightweight yet powerful WordPress security plugin that eliminates the login page as an attack surface. Instead of just defending, it erases the entrance entirely with dynamic login URLs and multi-layer access verification.

  • πŸ”’ Hide your login URL with a custom slug and time-based code
  • πŸ”‘ Built-in 2FA via email verification
  • 🚫 Auto-block brute force attacks by IP
  • 🧱 Disable/limit unused endpoints like XML-RPC and REST API
  • πŸ‘€ Prevent user enumeration via REST, RSS, and author queries
  • πŸ” Visualize security status and detect conflicts
  • πŸ“œ Activity logs with optional file rotation

GhostGate doesn’t just defend β€” it disappears.
Invisible to bots. Intuitive for users.

Privacy

GhostGate can store the following data locally on your site to provide rate-limiting and security auditing:
– IP addresses (for temporary throttling / block lists)
– Timestamps and event metadata (login attempts, REST/XML-RPC hits)
– Optional log files under wp-content/uploads/ghostgate/logs (if enabled)

No data is sent to third-party services.
Site owners are responsible for informing users/visitors where required by local laws. You can clear blocks/logs from the admin UI or by deleting the log files.
