    1515=== Really simple, Effective and Performant WordPress Security ===
    16 Really Simple Security is the most lightweight and easy-to-use security plugin for WordPress. It secures your WordPress website with SSL certificate generation, properly enforcing en redirecting to https, scanning for possible vulnerabilities, Login Protection and implementing essential WordPress hardening features.
     16Really Simple Security is the most lightweight and easy-to-use security plugin for WordPress. It secures your WordPress website with SSL certificate generation, including proper 301 https redirection and SSL enforcement, scanning for possible vulnerabilities, Login Protection and implementing essential WordPress hardening features.

    1818We believe that security should have the absolute minimum effect on website performance, user experience and maintainability. Therefore, Really Simple Security is:

    5252= Advanced SSL enforcement =
    53 * Mixed Content Scan & Fixer. Detect files that are requested over HTTP and fix it, both Front- and Back-end.
     53* Mixed Content Scan & Fixer. Detect files that are requested over HTTP and fix them to HTTPS, both Front- and Back-end.
    5454* Enable HTTP Strict Transport Security and configure your site for the HSTS Preload list.

     90* 2FA (two factor authentication) with TOTP
     91* Passwordless login with passkey login
    9092* Enforce strong passwords and frequent password change

    127129= What happened with Really Simple SSL? =
    128 All features that made Really Simple SSL the most powerful and easy-to-use SSL plugin are still part of Really Simple Security. The plugin is developed with a modular approach: if you don't want to use the full set of security features, the unused code will not be loaded and won't have any effect on your site's performance.
     130All features that made Really Simple SSL the most powerful and easy-to-use SSL generation and redirect plugin are still part of Really Simple Security. The plugin is developed with a modular approach: if you don't want to use the full set of security features, the unused code will not be loaded and won't have any effect on your site's performance.

    135137
    136 = Mixed Content issues =
     138= What are Mixed Content issues? =
    137139Most mixed content issues are caused by URLs in CSS or JS files. For detailed instructions on how to find mixed content read this [article](https://really-simple-ssl.com/knowledge-base/how-to-track-down-mixed-content-or-insecure-content/).
    138140
    … …  
    140142We added the possibility to generate a Free SSL Certificate with Let's Encrypt in our Really Simple Security Wizard. We have an updated list available for all possible integrations [here](https://really-simple-ssl.com/install-ssl-certificate/). Please leave feedback about another integration, incorrect information, or you need help.
    141143
    142 = Redirect loop issues =
    143 If you are experiencing redirect loops on your site, try these [instructions](https://really-simple-ssl.com/knowledge-base/my-website-is-in-a-redirect-loop/).
     144= How do I fix a redirect loop? =
     145If you are experiencing redirect loops on your site, try these [instructions](https://really-simple-ssl.com/knowledge-base/my-website-is-in-a-redirect-loop/). This can sometimes happen during the migration to HTTPS or due to conflicting redirect rules.
    144146
    145147= Is the plugin multisite compatible? =
    146148Yes. There is a dedicated network settings page where you can control settings for your entire network, at once.
    147149
    148 = Uninstalling Really Simple Security =
    149 The plugin checks your certificate before enabling, but if, for example, you migrated the site to a non-SSL environment, you might get locked out of the back-end.
    150 
    151 If you can't deactivate, do not just remove the plugin folder to uninstall! Follow these [instructions](https://really-simple-ssl.com/knowledge-base/uninstall-websitebackend-not-accessible/) instead.
     150= How do I enforce strong passwords? =
     151Under Login Protection, you can configure minimum strength settings and require users to change their passwords after a defined interval. Disabling weak password usage is a best practice.
     152
     153= How can I change my login URL? =
     154You can set a custom login URL under Advanced Site Hardening, which helps prevent brute force login attacks and bots targeting wp-login.php.
     155
     156= Does this plugin redirect HTTP to HTTPS? =
     157Yes. The plugin enforces HTTPS and handles all necessary redirects, optionally using .htaccess or PHP.
     158
     159= Can I use Really Simple Security besides WordFence? =
     160Really Simple Security and WordFence greatly overlap in term of functionality. If you like to use specific features from both plugins, we strongly recommend not to enable similar features twice. The benefit of Really Simple Security is that disabled features don't load any code, so won't have an impact on site performance.
