Wp Installation File should be bundled with few essential security plugins
-
My Recommendation is not related to blog registered at wordpress.com but those users who download wordpress and install on their respective websites.
Wp Hacking is one of the serious issues and each days multiple wp sites get hacked. I would like to know if WordPress can offer some basic security to the end users who download WordPress for the first time.
Most of the users who download wp are unaware of the security issues. Therefore, I would like to know if basic plugins like wordfence should be bundled with wordpress or atleast users get some sort of prompt to encourage them to install security plugins. It is just like purchasing a windows without having an anti-virus in place.
There are few critical areas:-
a) Wp-Login Page
b) Brute Force Attack on the Login Page
c) Outdated plugins created loopholes in the wp.Do share your thoughts regarding same. There should be some basic security guidelines provided by wordpress encouraging users to secure their wordpress installations.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

We provide support here only for WordPress.COM hosted blogs.We do not provide support for WordPress.ORG software installs.
As that site is not hosted here at WordPress.COM, our support docs are not relevant, and you are posting to the wrong support forum.
WordPress.COM and WordPress.ORG are completely separate and have different username accounts, logins, features, run different versions of some themes with the same names, and have separate support documentation and separate support forums. Read the differences here http://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/
If you don’t have a username account at WordPress.ORG account, then click http://wordpress.org/support/ and register one on the top right hand corner of the page that opens, https://wordpress.org/support/register.php so you can post to the support forums there.

WordPress.org support docs are at https://codex.wordpress.org/Main_Page -
Wrong forum
The site you are asking about does not seem to be hosted on WordPress.COM so you need to make friends over at WordPress.ORG the keepers of the software you are using.
This site is for support of sites hosted on WordPress.COM. You should address your questions to WordPress.ORG the keepers of the software you are using: http://wordpress.org/support/
The forum at WordPress.ORG is not connected to WordPress.COM so you will need to open an account at .ORG if you do not already have one. You may use the same email at WordPress.ORG as you do at WordPress.COM.

If you are asking for help with a WordPress.COM site then we need a link to that site to give you accurate help.

I included that paragraph because you are referring to wordpress.ORG software installs and not referring to this free blog http://wpdesignseoindia.wordpress.com/ provided and free hosted wordpress.COM Make your recommendations here http://wordpress.org/support/
I also note that your wordpress.COM username is NOT linked to a wordpress.COM blog and we do not provide support here for the site it is linked to.

@TT – I think that is the same site that spammed the support forum last week with a pile of really bad “answers” and some spam links to their home site
