Hello,

2. https://wordpress.org/plugins/defender-security/

Scan site with https://sitecheck.sucuri.net/ and fix the said error.

You are done.

You do not need any plugin to secure you website. I would be posting a tutorial on this if you would like?

For initial precautions, setting password protected wp admin folder via http header is a good measure.. You can do this from cpanel directory permissions setting or manually creating htaccess+htpasswd

Secondly is completely disable php on certain directory (wp upload /date)

Many stuff you can do with htaccess plus it doesn't consume server resources

My admin login are still qwerty123 lol
