In this video we explore WPScan’s ability to enumerate usernames and brute force attack a vulnerable WordPress website using Kali Linux. We will also discuss possible mitigation techniques in the form of strong, unpredictable usernames and passwords, as well as explore a popular web application firewall (WAF) call Wordfence that can be used to further prevent brute force attacks.
