Two-Factor Authentication
-
Hi,
So I work for a printing company and we have a potential client that ran a Risk Recon check on our company. They found one of the URLs, https/kelvynpress.com/wp-login.php, as a high risk factor. Although this is a login page for admins only, is there a way to add two-factor authentication to this login? If we are are unable to resolve the ‘high-risk security issue’, we may not get this client. Please advise. -
Hello there,
It looks like your site is being hosted at another company which means that it’s not running the WordPress.com platform but its using the open-source WordPress.org platform. Since the platforms are different you’ll get more adequate help at their support forums:

Thanks luanluta! This is good information. Unfortunately the person who set up our website is no longer with the company. I’m the admin now and I’m not sure I have the right login for WordPress.org. Is it the same as WordPress.com for the login, or would it be separate logins?

Hello there,
Yes its separate logins. It’s best to think of them as different entities who happen to share the same name. There’s an option to reset your password – and if they were using a company email you can get access to it. It’s best to ask for support at the .org support forums:
